  "account": "Aya Nakamura received the Artist-Entrepreneur of the Year award at Billboard France's inaugural Power Players event, held on September 15 at Salle Cortot in Paris. The singer, 31, was presented the trophy by RnBoi, the first artist signed to her own company, Nakamura Industrie. This recognition comes as Nakamura continues to expand her business empire while releasing music through her own label. Destinée, her fifth studio album and first under Nakamura Industrie, was released in November 2025 and has since been certified platinum by the SNEP in France. The album's reissue, Destinée Supremacy, extended its success into 2026 with the single \"Sexy Nana\" featuring La Rvfleuze, which was certified diamond in France. In 2026, Nakamura continued to draw large crowds, performing three consecutive concerts at the Stade de France, with over 200,000 spectators. She also established a division within Nakamura Industrie focused on developing new talent. RnBoi, who presented Nakamura with the award on stage, is the first artist signed to her company.",
