We haven’t checked in with Elliott Yamin in awhile, so figured it was time for an update.

Put this one in the Who Knew? category – his debut record has sold more than 50,000 copies in Japan in the less than two weeks it’s been available. Even cooler is that “Wait for You” is the number one single in the country – over Madonna and Usher.

Elliott also plans to release the album in Taiwan and China.

Most of his time lately has been spent holed up in the studio, where he is working on his next record (sorry, no definite release date yet).

And this weekend, Elliott will be in San Francisco to honor four winners of the “Inspired by Diabetes Creative Expression Competition” (http://www.inspiredbydiabetes.com), which encourages people with diabetes to express their feelings about the disease through written and visual expressions.

Elliott is the spokesperson for the competition, and this weekend’s award ceremony is part of the American Diabetes Association’s 68th Annual Scientific Sessions on June 8 and 9 in San Francisco.

Good for Elliott!!! He seems to have found his niche in the Asian market.

I’m so happy that Elliott continues to do well and that his talent is being recognized internationally!  I love him—his voice is just so beautiful, sexy, and soothing!  We need to play his music on the radio more here in the states! c’mon now!  Best of luck Elliott!

Great to hear Elliott continues to receive the success he deserves!  He’s a nice guy with a fantastic voice and a hugh heart.

Great to hear about Elliott’s continued success.  As former Richmonders, my wife and I always root for him.

Looks like the Japanese people have great taste in music!  So happy to hear this great news.  Go get ‘em Elliott!!!
