Honey, just because Beyonce is blowing all those other mediocre stars away doesn't mean that she is anywhere close to MJ's level. Looking at the Dvd, I'm quite dubious because it looks like she went to extra lengths to put in the few scenes where people were crying. MJ didn't have to do all that. It was what it was. I know these artists want to be on his level. Who wouldn't. But, we have to realistic. A career like MJ's was a once in a lifetime deal that even he would've been hard-pressed to repeat. Hell, grown men passed out at his concerts. These people are just crying. I've seen this at Mariah Carey concerts, Whitney Houston concerts, Boyz II Men concerts, R. Kelly concerts, Usher concerts. This isn't only relegated to artists like Beyonce. When people start giving her awards that only heads of states get and when people in prison start doing her dance routines, then let me know for real. Michael had people (about 5,000 a night), fainting, crying, and going on tantrums. That's something we'll probably never see again. Beyonce is probably the best artist out right now, but she doesn't have the kind of competition MJ had when he was at his peak. Michael had to compete with Stevie Wonder, Prince, Tina Turner, Lionel Richie, Diana Ross, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Madonna, G N'R. Just think about it. His album bad didn't even win any grammies in 1988 because competition was so stiff and that was one of the most innovative albums in the history of the recording industry. Same thing with Dangerous. If Beyonce had the kind of competition MJ had in his day, she most likely would be an artist on the level of Ciara or Keri Hilson. If she was so great, why aren't any of her albums on the list and the best selling albums of all time. Why did Lady gaga come out of nowhere and totally snatch her tired lace-front. She hasn't recovered from that, yet. Nobody replaced MJ, and even though the media mounted a thorough plot to commit total character assassination against him, he still emerged victorious. He was at his peak for 13 years straight. By that time, there was no question that he had become the greatest entertainer of all time. Now that he is no longer with us, his legacy has become even more sure. If anything, it is not fair to compare Beyonce to the King of Pop, because he has too much of a head start to achieve all of the things he did, and for that reason alone, Beyonce will probably never accomplish half the things he did. It's just a different time. Beyonce was voted the Queen of Pop in a poll taken by over 100,000 people in London (because not many people in the U.S. would even dare agree that she was the Queen of Pop). MJ was voted the greatest singer of all time in a poll taken by over 10,000,00 people all over the world. That's the difference.
