Depends what you mean by "Asia" I guess but in the part I've looked at, not really. For Taiwan the largest names are Ang Lee (film director), Teresa Teng (singer), Jay Chou and Jolin Tsai (also singers). For HK, the actor Jackie Chan trumps anybody else. Hayao Miyazaki (animator) is one of the most prominent in Japan. And in South Korea around Seoul, there's Psy and a couple of other artists as well.
