Published: Sunday 21st Mar 2010 by Sam

Pop superstars Lady GaGa and Beyonce will have much cause for celebration tonight, as their smash ‘Telephone’ has hit the top spot on the Official UK Singles Chart.

No doubt spurred on the the song’s epic viddeo, the feat brings GaGa’s tally of #1’s on the chart to 4 (‘Just Dance’, ‘Poker Face’, ‘Bad Romance’ and ‘Telephone’) and Beyonce’s to 5 (‘Crazy In Love’, ‘Deja Vu’, ‘Beautiful Liar’, ‘If I Were A Boy’, and ‘Telephone’). Impressive!

    Lol. It’s Gaga’s hit, not Beyonce’s.
    Remember this. They may be BFF’s, but still.

    At least this wasn’t the same result as Videophone.

  10. BEYONCELOVER1993 March 21, 2010

    @KAMI

    THIS IS BEYONCE’S HIT ALSO, SHE CONTRIBUTED, ITS COUNTS FOR BOTH..SHADINESS!!!!

    @kami
    bff’s like Beyoncé was with Shakira a few years ago? LMAO

    and btw, Telephone wont reach number 1 on USA so just keep dreaming

  12. Kami March 21, 2010

    I know that she contributed, I was just directing that at the other fans.
    Also, I don’t really mind it if Telephone doesn’t reach number one. The fact that its in the top ten in the US, and is doing very well internationally is pretty amazing.

  13. PLZZZ March 21, 2010

    OH Please GAGA is the reason it went #1 PERIOD.

    Bee was an OK contribution but not anywhere near the main reason it went #1….If thats the case Video Phone wouldvw went #1!!!

    GAGA is whats ruiling the charts/music industry right now! Gaga will go on to surpase Bee and become close to the Madonna’s and Michael Jackson’s…….

    Bee is nothing but an R&B Queen…..Gaga is and Will be a Huge Pop International Artist

    Love ya Gagaloo!!!!

  15. Aunt Jackie March 21, 2010

    Knew this was going to happen. Song is hot, video is scorching.

    The reason it went number one is because of both Beyonce and Lady Gaga’s fans. People always trying to make it a competition, or talk negatively. Get the f*ck out of here with all that.

    The deserve that number one. They entertain quite well, and are hard workers.

  16. Jay2010 March 21, 2010

    Old news huh?

    *Hums 6 Grammys this year alone’ under breath*

    Well done, B and Gaga…. I stan HARD for you both….

    And YES it does count as #1 for B – in the same way Live Your Life Counts as a #1 for Rih, whose fans some of the above undoubtedly are…

  24. S*** March 21, 2010

    Stop OVER-RATING Gaga PLZZZ!!, Since when was she an ICON??, Fashion Icon Maybe (but thats it) but certainly not in Music, Aside from a couple great songs her music is NOT all that…. just a bunch of Noise. She will NEVER see Beyonce’s Level!! NEVER, Beyonce is Galaxies ahead of her on a Whole Nother Planet….

    Gaga cant even Sing, Her slower songs are just dreadful & her Album is just O.K, She has made a career out of Adopting other crazy/Gay PPL like herself as her Fans. & Have you seen her try to “dance”?, , You can learn her moves in just 5 Seconds, They arent even all that Complicated. Shes no Better than Rihanna & dare I say Worst. Shes all Smoke & Mirrors. Gaga is Result of when Xtina, Britney, & Madonna Shitted in the Same Toilet together & there arose the Birth of Ms.GagsALot/

    Shes not the best Singer or Dancer & her performances are ZZZZZZ, PPL have been Brain Washed by Gags Fashion, OK Take that away & you get an ugly Un-Talented woman/man whom is Creative & happens to know how to play the Piano….

    SO OVER-RATED, Next year it will be someone else…

  25. Blasian March 21, 2010

    OH PLZ! THIS IS BEYONCE HIT AS WELL! LIKE SOMEONE SAID 6 GRAMMYS IN ONE NITE GAGA 2 DIDN’T WIN NOTHING IN THE BIG ONES. ONCE DANCE MUSIC PASSES ON BY SO WILL LADY GAGA. SHE BEEN OUT FOR 2 YEARS THE DUMB BISH ABOUT TO PASS OUT ON STAGE ALREADY LMAO! PLZ!!!!!!!! LOL WHAT A JOKE LOL

  26. March 21, 2010

    so if beyonce’s the main reason this is a hit, then how do you explain “video phone” doing a belly flop on the charts?

  27. Kami March 21, 2010

    @ S***–

    Let me explain something to you..Gaga can absolutely sing, and she has proven that so many times that even YOUTUBE haters have stopped using that argument. Have you watched any of her live performances? The ones particularly showcasing ‘Speechless’ and her earlier and slower songs that she was trying to push into the mainstream before The Fame was released in 2008. You have no argument against her. If she really couldn’t sing, then you’d see a multitude of blogs spotting her on that opposed to supporting her. You need to watch her performance for the recent music award shows, honestly.

    About her being a ‘fashion’ icon, its true. But that isn’t the whole reason as to why she’s so popular. Gaga dresses like that because she likes it, you know that right? She’s also trying to get people to be so used to outlandish costumes and theater like fashion pieces as a metaphor for being a ‘freak.’ Meaning that she’s doing that so people will learn to appreciate something that’s OUT OF THE ORDINARY, instead of CONDEMNING IT simply because they don’t UNDERSTAND it. And it isn’t just gays/bi’s that support her — A lot of people all over the world, gay, straight, bi and so on ADORE her because she isn’t afraid of what people think.

    In 2008, people said that she’d only be a one hit wonder with Just Dance.
    In 2010, she has a total of 6 Top Ten hits internationally and she isn’t stopping.
    People said that she couldn’t be taken seriously because her fashion is outlandish.
    Now the entire fashion industry is at her feet making pieces of her out of FAVORITISM, and giving her pieces directly off of the runway by request.
    People said that she’d never win any awards and is mediocre.
    She now has a total of 5 awards. 2 in the US, and 3 from the UK.

    This isn’t about Gaga vs. Beyonce.
    This is because you decided to condemn gaga as an artist. How dare you even THINK about calling her trash mixed from ‘Xtina and Britney.’ Gaga has been working her ASS off for the majority of her life to get to where she is right now. she used to play in nearly empty bars 2 YEARS AGO because she was so dedicated to flagging down someone who had a record deal and she finally got one. Now even BEYONCE HERSELF, The Queen of England, Ozzy Osborne, Michael Jackson and nearly every single influential person in and out of music are APPLAUDING her because she has wowed everyone with the fact that she proves that she’s talented time and time again.

    Besides, you must be mildly retarded for calling her ‘crap’ and ‘can’t’ sing.
    Because if that actually was the case, then she wouldn’t tilt her shows in the direction of the theater aspect. Gaga is the REASON why everyone needs to start stepping up their game and giving their FANS and the WORLD a damn good reason to become an artist.

    We are a few months into 2010 and Gaga is already working on a new album, ladies and gentlemen. If you still have those tired and worn out arguments about her being PLAYED out, like they said she was in 2008, then you need to find something better to fight with, honestly.

  28. S*** March 21, 2010

    & I hope im getting Through to some of these DELUSIONAL STANS & Please dont try to through Stats at me Cuz Frankly i dont Care!! 10 million to 100 million She’s Still UN TALENTED, OVER RATED & OVER HYPED!!

    Her true Calling is BEHIND THE SCENES, She should be a Fashion designer, A Producer, A Video Directer or something like that & I would say the same for Rihanna being a Model but Atleast Her Music is good.

    Gaga will Never see any Greats, Shell never see the likes of Mariah, Beyonce, Tina turner, Cristina, or MJ so #HOEHAVEASEAT

  29. Kami March 21, 2010

    Everyone you just listed except for MJ sound the same, dear.
    I can see where your mentality comes from. You just respond to different brain waves.

    Like I said, this isn’t about Gaga vs. Beyonce.
    They’re both on the same level in different ways. They’re both talented and are great performers. This isn’t a Shakira x Beyonce thing either.

    Shakira may be talented, but she doesn’t have as much cultural influence in this country.

  30. Kami March 21, 2010

    ALSO @ S*** –
    You have no right to say that her place is ‘behind the scenes’ when all you are as a hater is condemning her ‘behind the scenes’ yourself. She’s in the spotlight for a reason. If you hate her so much, create a movement against her to stop her radio and club play and see how far you get.

  31. Hm? March 21, 2010

    Both artists are great.

    I don’t quite get the comparison between Video Phone and Telephone though.

    Video Phone had been out for a year when it was released as a single. Of course it won’t do as well as Telephone. And it’s a totally different song which has a totally different market.

  32. ~Team Weezy~ March 21, 2010

    Congrats to them both! They are both extremely talented in their own way! Stop making it into a competition! Geez! This is just as much of Beyonce’s hit as it is Gaga’s!

  33. S*** March 21, 2010

    @ Kami, Thanks for the Essay, Really, I Appreciate it but EPIC FAIL.

    Yeah Gaga has a voice. Britney, Rihanna, j.lo, & Madonna have one too but my definition of Singing, Real singing seems to be Far Superior to yours Sweetie. Go listen to 90s R&B. Go listen to real singers with real voices & compare it to mess Gags-ALOT. Go watch Beyonce sing Dangerously in Love or Listen & then watch Ms. Gaga perform that DREADFUL mess that is Speechless & you’ll see that yes, GAGA CANT SING.

    Go watch Beyonce perform Single Ladies or MJ do Thriller then see Gaga do Poker face(Notice the lack of real Dance Skill). Youll see that, Yes GAGA CANT DANCE!!…

    Thus she is NOT Talented, Yeah she can Compose & play the Piano but can you really call that Talent? as apposed to just a Developed Skill.

    You know maybe I would like Gaga if she wasnt so dame OVER-RATED, Ive heard PPL say her songs are this or that Like TEETH for instance & so I go listen to them & im like WERE THEY SERIOUS??, THIS IS MESS is AWFUL!!.

    I dont mean to be Simon Cowel but this is my Honest Opinion

  34. Kami March 21, 2010

    But that’s the thing…
    Gaga was never meant to be an R&B/soulful singer.
    just because someone doesn’t have pipes like Aretha Franklin, doesn’t mean that they don’t have a soul in what they sing or do, honestly. I like Beyonce/Alicia and adore 90’s music. But there are obvious differences. Not only that, but the way the generation itself determines the nature of the music that hits the airwaves. Gaga’s music jumps into different categories of who she is and what she produces. Its all essentially pop, but so what?

    Talent shouldn’t have to be genre or octane specific.
    And so what if she can’t dance? She makes up for it by putting up marvelous shows. And despite the fact that she shouldn’t have to dance to every one of her songs, she does when it calls for it. You need to expand your horizons a bit.

    Just because she doesn’t sound like Beyonce doesn’t mean that she isn’t as talented as Honey Bee is :3

  35. GLYNNIEE March 21, 2010

    HOW WOULDNT IT BE nUMBER 1 WHEN ITS THE DEVIL’S MUSIC???

  36. PLZZZ March 21, 2010

    BEYONCE’S MUSIC IS SHIIT THATS WHY!!!! WTF HER SONGS ARE AWFUL!! DONT DARE COMPARE THEM TO THE ARTISTIC FORMS OF GAGA’S MUSIC!!!

    AT LEAST GAGA “WRITES” HER MUSIC, BEYONCE “CLAIMS” TO WRITE SONGS SHE DIDNT WRITE, AND EVERY SONG SHE IS ON IS WRITTEN BY LIKE 50 PEOPLE!!!!

    I WOULD AT LEAST RESPECT BEEWOLF MORE IF SHE WASNT FAKE, AND HER MUSIC WASNT HORRIBLE!!! GAGA IS REALLY HOW SHE IS ON AND OFF THE STAGE!! TRUE ARTIST…PLUS IF BEE FANS WERENT SO IGNORANT I WOULD RESPECT HER MORE S WELL.

    BEYONCE WILL SOON FADE AWAY IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS WHILE GAGA TAKES OVER THE MUSIC IDUSTRY!!! THERE NO DOUBT IN MY MIND SHE WILL SURPASE “6 GRAMMYS IN ONE NIGHT” SHE ALREADY HAS TWO W/ HER FIRST ALBUM!!!!!

    BEYONCE HAD TO RIP OFF HER WHACK A** DESTINY GROUP TO GET TO WERE SHE IS!!!!

  37. e11 March 21, 2010

    Calm the fluck down…

    Beyonce is the queen. she can back it up… (she got the vocals)….
    once Gaga cant top herself with her outfits (after looking like the solar system, a lobster) once the initial ‘shock’ has passed… what is left?

  38. B@tch Please March 21, 2010

    Why isn’t it doing good in the US?

  39. e11 March 21, 2010

    PLZZZ… plzzz sit yo asSS down.

    Beyonce has been around for over 10 years… even in her years to come, she still gon be here… even if beyonce was to fade away, she has done pretty well for herself.

    Gaga on the other hand has just started in the industry… when she’s been around for 10 years, then you can start talking.

    Gaga win 6grammy’s in 1 night? get the fluck outta here with that ish. HAHA. how many bey got? 16?

    Umm..lol what?
    How is it devil’s music? Get your religion out of your actual opinion of something.
    It makes you look ignorant and simple minded.

    THIS IS ALL GAGA! bey stans need to shut up with that. Forreal. beyonce didnt accomplish anything regarding telephone, GAGA DID. no offense.. bey is cool…

    ANYWAY! congrats GAGA! i love you mommy monster!!

  44. Kami March 21, 2010

    ^Why are you preaching this? It isn’t about Gaga vs. Beyonce.
    if anything, I think they’re actually the same force. Let Honey Bee, Mama-Monster, and Rihanna dominate the charts and kick s*** like Miley Cyrus, Taylor, and Kesha off of it.

  45. Raychel March 21, 2010

    PEOPLE COMING FOR GAGA IMMA NEED YOU TO SHUT UP.

  46. Raychel March 21, 2010

    @kami exactly. Im really not liking people coming from gaga. it dont matter HOW LONG gaga been out. she has LOADS of talent, she writes her material, PLAYS THE PIANO, can dance, can entertain, and she hasent even been out that long.

    YEARS YOUVE BEEN IN THE INDUSTRY DOSENT DETERMINE HOW GOOD YOU ARE AS AN ARTIST

    GRAMMYS DONT DETERMINE IF AN ARTIST IS BETTER THAN ANOTHER! come on people!

  47. ~Team Weezy~ March 21, 2010

    @ Raychel

    Um, since you are a Rihanna stan, do you consider Rihanna having the most number ones in the 2000’s accurate?

  48. fg March 21, 2010

    BEYOUNCE IS THE TRUE DIFINITION OF AN ICON……BEAT THAT

  50. fg March 21, 2010

    some ledgend diss gaga lol she spoke the truth ,GAGA IS A GIMMIC THE TRUE TEST OF AN ARTIST IS HOW LONG U CAN STAY HOT FOR

  51. e11 March 21, 2010

    congrats to gaga on the number 1. i’m just glad beyonce can share it with her!
    now waiting on put it in a love song video…

  52. matt March 21, 2010

    always knew she could do it, fourth number one off her debut album, and before people start saying otherwise, it is classed as one album here in the UK (Fame/Fame Monster). That has also moved four places to the number one place, it’s sixth non-consecutive time there, and it has been in the charts for over 62 weeks, cannot believe this album is still selling like hot cakes, just goes to show how amazing Gaga is, haters see you later! also congrats to Beyonce, her fans seem to be loving gaga more and vice versa the other way. Both chicks are doing the damn THING!!

  53. Kami March 21, 2010

    @ FG –
    Just because you call someone an ‘Icon’ doesn’t make them one. This is going despite me agreeing with you. But you need to honestly curb your hatred for Gaga. Since your’ queen’ adores Gaga, shouldn’t you be a good little fan and support her love for her?

    Also, Gaga’s been in the mainstream for 2 years.
    Beyonce’s been around since 1997, and came out as an ‘individual’ in 2003. Why are we comparing people? Beyonce has more experience and face time, sure. But why are you trying to come at Gaga with a stake when they’re working together peacefully?

    Beyonce obviously wouldn’t work with someone who doesn’t have any talent.
    Silly, stan.

  54. Raychel March 21, 2010

    @teamweezy this is a gaga post.

  55. Raychel March 21, 2010

    oops im sorry this is beys number one. silly me 😀

  56. fg March 21, 2010

    respect me

  57. here to laugh March 21, 2010

    Congrats to BOTH ladies on going number one, even though im not a fan of the song.
    I’m sure the psycho Bey fans had an orgasm when they read this.

  58. ~Team Weezy~ March 21, 2010

    @ Raychel

    I take it since you didn’t answer my question, you think it is accurate which means you are completely contradictory just because of who your favorite artist is. One of Rihanna’s number one songs is a T.I. song (Live you Life) in which she is featured on as is Beyonce to “Telephone”. Therefore, you saying that “Telephone” isn’t Bey’s number one is also saying that “Live your Life” is also not Rihanna’s number one either. K?

  59. Raychel March 21, 2010

    @teamweezy I just said telephone IS beys number one.
    I made a mistake.
    again. this isnt a rihanna post. this is a gaga post.
    Im not contridicting a daggone thing.
    I didnt EVEN awknowledge you, or your question, so how am I believing the statement is true? smh.

    CONGRATS BEY AND GAGA.

  60. Kami March 21, 2010

  62. DIVVAZ March 21, 2010

    lol reality check beyonce got 5 grammys for her first album “dangerously in love”.lady gaga got 2 awards and that was at the pre-show she didn’t win none at the actual show.beyonce won like 3 at the pre-show.beyonce’s heat perfume has already sold 3 million in one month.it sold 72,000 within one hour of it’s release at macy’s store.beyonce is a superstar and amazing entertainer.lady gaga is amazingly creative,she is a good singer,a ok dancer and a great musician.without all of those freaky outfits lady gaga would not be as big as she is.beyonce can sing,dance and perform on her own without any crazy outfits.it’s talent over image.the music industry is obviously NOT about talent anymore,with theses ARTISTS THEY ARE SIGNING TODAY.MICHAEL JACKSON IS A POP AND FASHION ICON,A LEGEND,A MUSICAL GENIUS AND A ENTERTAINER.HE DIDN’T NEED ALL OF THOSE STUFF BEHIND HIM.HE HAD OUT OF THIS WORLD TALENT,GOD GIVEN.IT WAS JUST A ASSET TO HIM.GAGA’S FANS ARE SUPPOSE TO THINK SHE IS THE COOLEST THING IN THE WORLD(SHE’S NOT) BUT SHE’S SUPPOSE TO MAKE THEM FEEL THAT WAY ABOUT HER.ALL FANS ARE SUPPOSE TO WORSHIP THEIR FAVORITE ARTISTS LIKE GODS.WHO REALLY GIVES A HECK IF SOMEONE PLAYS THE PIANO AS OPPOSE TO PERFORMING THEIR FAVORITE SONG LIVE.LADY GAGA= GIMMICK OVER TALENT(BEYONCE) HATE IT OR LOVE IT,IT’S THE TRUTH.BEYONCE IS BEAUTIFUL AND LOOKS LIKE A BARBIE DOLL,WHILE LADY GAGA LOOKS LIKE A TRANSGENDERED MAN.SHE IS THE NEW MADONNA MEANING SHE NOT TALENTED AND SHE IS A GIMMICK.SHE’S JUST LIKE THE REST OF US A HUMAN NOT A ALIEN.NOBODY PAYS ATTENTION TO MUSICIANS,BACK UP SINGERS OR DANCERS ON STAGE.THEIR LIGHT IS DIMMED.

  63. YouPutTheLimeInTheCoconut March 21, 2010

    Talk to me when it reaches #1 on the Hot 100.

  64. Kami March 21, 2010

    If she’s such a gimmick, then she would have fallen off the radar after Pokerface :3 Gaga and Beyonce are on the same level. Then beyonce would obviously have faster sales because she’s been around longer. Telephone is at #9. That’s still success.
    Everything Beyonce set out, single wise..didn’t always peak at number one either. Yet she’s still a great artist. Same applies to Gaga.

    People are running out of counter arguments.
    First it was ..”she’ll never do this.”
    Now its…”well she may be close, but it still hasn’t done blah, blah, blah.”

    And it isn’t just her outfits. The world’s used to them at this point, ladies and gentlemen.

  65. ~TeAM WeeZY~ March 21, 2010

    @Raychel

    Ok, I know this isn’t a Rihanna post, but my point was since you are a Rihanna stan and you probably believed that Rihanna was accurately awarded with 6 number ones in which one is a song she is only featured on then maybe you would understand why others are saying that this is Beyonce’s number one even if she’s just a featured artist. And now that you have backtracked your statement, No, you are no longer contradicting yourself.

  66. Dane March 21, 2010

    Lady Gaga just tweeted:

    TELEPHONE WENT #1 IN THE UK! + THE ALBUM FAME MONSTER WENT #1 UK! WE DID IT HONEY B! LOVE + KISSES TO OUR FANS, WE COULDNT DO IT WITHOUT U.

    Well They both deserve all success!!!! I love them both tremendously. I went to Beyonce’s concert last year and I’m going to Ga Ga’s concert this year!!!! Yall should let them enjoy there success together!!! OBVIOUSLY they’re not hating on each other so it’s stupid 4 u all 2 hate on them. Your words will not stop either one of them or there careers POINT BLANK PERIOD!!!!!

    @PLZZZZ U are entitled to your opinion but don’t get mad when somebody disagrees with you. You’re taking it so personal and you’re letting your love for Ga Ga make u hate Beyonce. That is dumb as hell!!!! Beyonce gone still sell with or without your support!! Stop being stupid and congratulate them both!!!!

    @Kami I whole-heartedly agree with you. I think Ga Ga is the Queen of Pop right now and Beyonce is the Queen of R&B. They are both on the same level in their genre which is why I love them both and they are a powerhouse duo when they work together.

    They both are moneymaking powerhouses and they both have the respect of Black ppl as well as whites. I am Black and I listen to the opinion of other blacks and they respect Beyonce and Ga Ga because of their hustle!!! They are making money regardless of what anyone says!!! BOTTOM LINE (THIS GOES 4 EVERYONE) REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY OF U THINK THEY ARE TALENTED, IN THE END THEY ARE STILL MAKING MONEY BY THE MILLIONS SO OBVIOUSLY SOMEONE ELSE BESIDES U SEES THEIR TALENT PERIOD!!!! IF AN ARTIST MAKES MILLIONS OF MONEY FROM THEIR CRAFT……THEN THEY ARE RELEVANT TO THE INDUSTRY REGARDLESS OF WHETHER PPL THINK THEY ARE TALENTED OR NOT!!!!

    – Everyone does, obviously.

    @EVERYONE who tries to say “videophone” is a result of gaga being the main reason telephone did well..

    Let me tell you something, that was Beyonce’s FINAL SINGLE!!! IDIOTS!! It was the very last song to be a single and those usually never do as well as the first few singles that are put out. I think that was like the what? 7th video of the album?

    Anyway, this is Gaga’s second single!! So it was be a slap in the face if videophone did better than telephone! duhhh!

    beyonce is the queen. all hail the queen bee

    @ Team Weezy…..Almost all of Beyonce’s number 1’s have had someone featured on it.
    Only 1 of Rihanna’s number 1’s has a feature. Damn you go so hard, and fail. You’re not as bad as X Y and Z but why are you bringing up Rihanna in a Beyonce/Lady Gaga post? Then when I or someone else elaborates I’ll get called a stan. *Side eye* You’re starting to get on my bad side 🙂

    I’m laughing at how you Beyonce stans are so delusional to the point where you actually believe Telephone’s success is due to Beyonce being featured. Hold up…..WHERE THE HELL IS VIDEO PHONE? THAT was actually BEYONCE’S OWN SONG and it flopped harder than EVER with TWICE the hype. Get the hell out of here! Telephone is successful because Gaga is on it and that’s about it. Beyonce and her 2 and a half second verse can go somewhere.

    Congrats on her fragrance sales though. But she seriously needs take the double A batteries out of her back and take a break.

  75. ITS MY OPINION March 22, 2010

    beyonce will have a breakdown if she does not take a break, how much more money does she need, how much more awards does she need, i think she needs the attention more than anything else because she has it all yet afraid to leave for 5 mins….

  76. matt March 22, 2010

    why do people think that the music industry revolves around the f****** Hot 100, it doesn’t there are plenty more charts around the world. People seem think the usa shines out its own ass. If you are worldwide successful, the usa doesn’t really count!

  77. y2kmalone March 22, 2010

    too bad it will not be #1 in the us

  78. beyoncebreezy March 22, 2010

    @ITS MY OPINION

    Suck a d*** even now Beyonce’s on a break she still slaying b****** she’s the baddest in the game and even YOU out of all people know that.
    Beyonce and Lady Gaga are both incredible talented strong woman stop comparing.
    Beyonce is totally different from Lady Gaga i’m glad they did a duet it was amazing telephone is Beyonce’s number #1 too stop being stupid.
    Beyonce was on top of her game in destiny child she’s never going to leave the lime light she’s too famous she loves her job why should she stop for other people?
    She’s been doing for 10 years she loves her job that’s not a crime.
    If you don’t like her that’s your problem.
    Congrats on both of them even though Gaga’s new shes doing her thing only started got 2 grammys already good on her.

  79. Fred March 22, 2010

    The video for this in my opinion was total crap and the song sucks. I actually like Gaga but this was horrible imo

  80. DIVVAZ March 22, 2010

    that person that said that 30 people wrote beyonce song didn’t look at her album or bought the album.some of beyonce’s songs for “dangerously in love” was written by bee herself.like “gift from virgo”.and others she wrote with one other person.they are co writers and she’s the writer.and a lot of the music on the album is sampled but a lot of music on lady gaga’s album is sampled.that mum mum mum muh is taken from boney m’s 1977’s hit “ma barker”.summerboy is inspired by blondie.and eh eh (nothing else i can say) is taken from rihanna’s umbrella.she isn’t that good of a writer cause most of her songs are non sense.only the ones that went to # 1 are good songs,the rest are just crappy.she isn’t a great artist most of the clothes she wears are designer the rest are nock offs of some designer.she doesn’t come up with the stuff she wears on her own.it’s creations from the haus of gaga.overall lady gaga is in no way shape or form better than beyonce.beyonce is the queen bee,lady gaga is a gimmick.she doesn’t possess enough talent to not wear crazy outfits.without the outfits and the name she wouldn’t be anything.

  81. matt March 22, 2010

    someone doesn’t know their facts. i’m not up for writing a huge essay, but please get your facts right, beyonce is goood, i do like her, but your making out the sun shines out her ass 🙂

  82. DONTAZZ March 22, 2010

    DONT TRY TO MAKE AN EXCUSE FOR VIDEOPHONE FLOPPING..IF THATS THE CASE SWEET DREAMS HAS BEEN AROUND FOR 2 YEARS AND ACTUALLY DID GREAT FOR BEE..VIDEOPHONE WAS JUST NEVER SINGLE MATERIAL TO ME..NO CLIMAX ..AND THE VIDEO WAS SOMETHING BEE HAD ALREADY DONE..LOVE U BEEE..BUT ITS THE TRUTH..TELEPHONE DIDNT EVEN HAVE A VIDEO AND WAS DOING EXCELLENT ON THE CHARTS

  83. ~Team Weezy~ March 22, 2010

    @Gucci

    Okay, l know you can read, but I don’t think you comprehended what I was trying to convey! Let me break it down. K?

    First of all, I directed my comment to Raychel because I know she is a Rihanna stan and that’s the reason I brought up Rihanna. I was informing her that because she believes that Rihanna has a [FEATURED] number one song, is contradictory to not believing that “Telephone” is Beyonce’s number one which is also a feature. I was merely trying to prove the point that any feature artist has as much right to claim the number one song as the artist who the song belongs to.

    Secondly, I know that most of Beyonce’s songs are featured! My point was not to prove that featured songs do not count! If you comprehended as much as your attempt to make someone sound bad you would know that I, in fact, believe that Rihanna’s number one song “Live your Life” is just as much hers as it is T.I.’s!!!! GeeZ! Just to make it clear, I BELIEVE FEATURED SONGS FOR [ANY] ARTIST COUNT AS NUMBER ONES!!!! Did you comprehend that????

    So basically, your statement claiming that I failed, um, I’m thinking you’re the failure sweety!

  84. Dane March 22, 2010

    Who cares if Video Phone was a flop…..I like that song and it goes hard in the club….

  85. Tammy March 22, 2010

    Guess what? Rihanna has 6 number ones.. haha ha. And beyonkey has been out longer than her and has more promotion. lol

  86. Radical Redneck March 22, 2010

    lady gaga is stupid for doing a song with that ugly n***** beyonce. Look like a f***** a**.

  87. Hill March 22, 2010

    no comment on this foolywang.

  88. cool chick March 22, 2010

    YAY!!!! 🙂

  89. MD March 22, 2010

    the rihanna stans are delusional. they think #1 singles puts rihanna on bey’s level. puhhlease

    bey has 16 grammy’s and made history as first female artist ever to win 6 in one night. all of rihanna’s grammy’s are from RAP categories. ROTFLMAO!!!!

    beyonce has sold over 130 million records, 16 grammies, 3 #1 solo albums in a row, lead singer of the best selling female group of all time, biggest and most successful black female artist of this generation.

    it would take a millions rihanna’s just to make one beyonce. so the rihanna stans need to sit down cause that girl hasn’t done anything that bey hasn’t already done.

    holla at me when rihanna can finally get a #1 album after 4 tries. smh

    as for gaga, she is hot at the moment just like rihanna, but will they be around 10+ years like bey and still be successful? i doubt it.

    congrats to gaga and bey on this #1 though.

  90. RATED x March 22, 2010

    first of all Madonna has 13 number 1 hits on the U.k charts…beyonce is not even close to that..second is this a post bout rihanna?
    third lady gaga is not a single artist people need to stop saying that….10million albums world wide 8 for the fame, 2 for the fame monster and she just came out 2008..man please..
    13 grammys dont mean s***, its obvious they just giving grammy away now..

  91. raychel March 23, 2010

    @ratedx thats what im talking about!! reprrsent madonna, the queen of pop. gaga is the princess. WE LOVE MADONNA

  92. BeyoncéFanatik April 29, 2010

    You guys kill me! Gaga is not the only reason that Telephone IS #1. Anybody would rush to watch it once they hear Beys name attached. It was a TEAM effort. Don’t be mad cuz your little idol can only get a #1 every 3 years and with the help of MUCH promoting. Bey and Gaga don’t need to promote much. Once their name is stated people eat it up. The only reason Video Phone didn’t go #1 is because Bey tried to match Lady Gagas crazy cool vids to make it more FUN instead of straight s***. You mad? STAY mad! And PLEASE waste your time commenting because I really am not going to read it. But haters HAVE to let it out. Go ‘head. LET IT OUT! =D
