For an artist who had previously been reluctant to jump on the craze that is social media, triple threat song bird Beyonce‘s online credentials are pretty impressive, to say the very least.
Indeed, with over 2 million followers despite the fact that she has never graced the world with a tweet and over 29 million ‘Likes’ on her official Facebook page,social media has slowly but surely helped to reaffirm the singer’s status as one of the world’s most celebrated women.
Now, following the false report that she had given birth to her first child with husband Jay Z, the entertainer has recently scored even more online feats.
Find out how below…
Rising 30 spots to #15 on Billboard’s Social 50 chart, whose ranks are determined by activity monitored on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, VEVO, Myspace and iLike, Carter enjoyed a whopping 146% increase in Twitter followers in the space of a week.
As if that wasn’t enough, her Twitter increase comes days after her latest album ’4‘ enjoyed a UK sales increase, rising 14 spots in a single week in its 27th week on the Official UK Album Chart while her single ‘Best Thing I Never Had‘ rose by 40 chart positions on the country’s singles chart in the same amount of time.

Why does TGJ Always try’s to COVER UP that beyonce is FLOPPING? This is not even news worthy but is being posted to make other people think beyonce is winning in anything …I guess some are in denial and need to be reality checked.
I was going to say the pic slays but it’s not her so.. =/
Anyways I see her pregnancy is yet again overshadowing this era..

These fake charts though with that photoshopped picture. TGJ acting like Bey is flopping like her “sister” Kelly the way they creating these fake stories. Lol
In real news: Talk that Talk will match 4′s worldwide sales next week. Not too shabby for a “flop” album.
PS Sam whatever happened to MJB’s My Life II album? I distinctly remember an article on here praising that album for topping TTT sales one week. Looks like TTT has topped it again being its out of the top 10.

Sorry beyonce fans, please excuse me, @poproyalty and the rest. Really you have to excuse me but this has nothing to do with her, it´s about TGJ:
HOW THE HELL is this important enough to praise her this way and made a whole post about it?????????? LOLOL TGJ is too much, beyonce is the only one that never ever gets shaded by TGJ. A bit of a joke. Like if the “achievements” mentioned in this post were the type of achievements Adele is reaching at the moment or something (breaking Whitney´s stunning records for album charts, etc, not the total record but you know, getting there)
That said, she looks so great in that pic, from when is it?

Anyhow Rihanna sold 1.8 Milli of TTT in less than two months. 4 is at 2 Milli at 6 months. TTT is gonna match that. I’m talking about worldwide sales not the US.

Yaaaay! Congrats to Bey on climbing up the social chart and on her increases on UK charts (that being clearly noted inside the article). It makes sense that people’s awareness of what’s going on with Queen Bey has had some effect on album / single sales.
It’s great news all around.

Both Jay-Z and Beyonce have also been sued numerous times separately for stealing people’s songs and willfully robbing people in not paying them for work and services rendered. They have a long history of this misconduct as well, as evidenced by PACER’s U.S. court system records.
