Yua Mikami continues to show her nearly limitless appeal across Asia by officially taking the number one spot in the 2025-2026 professional basketball league’s Most Popular Cheerleader fan vote.
What’s impressive is that this award isn’t based on professional judging or internal evaluation, but entirely on direct votes from fans. The final results clearly show Yua Mikami’s overwhelming lead.
Official results show Yua Mikami received 7,812 votes, beating many other well-known cheerleaders to top the rankings.
The gap between her and the rest is clear proof of the huge popularity Yua Mikami currently enjoys. Joining the Formosa Sexy cheer squad of the Formosa Dreamers club, she quickly became the center of attention every time she appeared on the court. Though she was already famous in entertainment, many initially wondered if she would really fit into the professional cheerleading scene.
However, after just one season, Yua Mikami proved she wasn’t there just for show but was serious about her new role. According to the Formosa Sexy team, Yua Mikami always learns the dance routines well before games. Once at the venue, she practices with the team to fine-tune every detail to ensure top performance quality. The group’s choreographer praised her for being extremely professional, always positive, and never acting like a star despite her busy personal schedule.
Beyond her standout looks, Yua Mikami is also highly praised for her ability to energize the crowd. Her performances often spark conversations on social media, boosting engagement for both Formosa Sexy and the league throughout the season. Many fans joke that Yua Mikami seems to succeed at everything she tries. From singing and fashion to social media and now sports cheerleading, she quickly becomes the most talked-about name.
Especially in a fiercely competitive cheerleading culture with many young stars, it’s impressive that a foreign artist like Yua Mikami can still rank so high in fan votes.
Many agree this award directly reflects the love from the fan community, since all results come from public voting rather than expert judging.
With nearly 8,000 votes and massive social media buzz, Yua Mikami once again proves her status as one of Asia’s top stars. No matter the field, she always knows how to grab attention and stay at the top.
