Responsible for catapulting her into the dizzy realms of stardom she still reigns in today, Beyonce‘s ‘Crazy In Love‘ is without a doubt one of the most iconic singles to be released by a performer in chart history.
Helping its supporting album ‘Dangerously In Love‘ to sell more than 9 million copies worldwide, it remains one of the many examples used to support the theory that Ms. Knowles is one the most ground breaking entertainers to debut within the last twenty years.
Now, eight years after its release, the song been named by VH1 as the best song to be released in the 00’s.
More information below…
Beating the likes of Lady GaGa‘s ‘Pokerface‘ and Rihanna‘s ‘Umbrella‘, the song came in at #1 in the 100 Greatest Songs Of 00’s.
As if that wasn’t enough, the songstress is the only entertainer on the list to have three songs that she co-wrote achieve positions in the list’s Top 20, with ‘Single Ladies’ coming in at #16 and Destiny’s Child‘s ‘Bootylicious‘ sat at #19.

NOT SURPRISED.. and all of them are in the top 20. btw where is baby boy that tune went hard in 03. Crazy in love in the club still making you lose your mind. Bravo to Beyonce. Whn she gets it she gets it.
She’s a complete legend. No one can compete or compare
For the most part I agree wit vh1
YAY!! She’s got quite a few in there. I thought Irreplaceable would be in there too.
I WON’T EVEN…I am so tired of lists and No.1’s.R n’b fans love ‘CIL’, rock fans hate it, techno fans dislike it and the list goes on.You cannot possibly name one song the best of a whole decade.How can ONE song, no matter how good it is, represent ALL styles of music during 10 years 😯 😯 This is just irrelevant and sloppy and it shows ignorance.
Anyway, CIL definetely deserves to be high in this unfair list, in the top 20.I don’t think it should be the No.1 by any means but there is no song that can be the No.1 of a decade, so the list won’t make sense to me anyway 😐
Congrats to all the artists who made it.I’m glad to see some underrated artists get some shine too…
OK, wait a second…GaGa in the top 3 with a generic europop song??I see pop classics out of the top 10 and she made it in the top 3??? 😯 😯 It deserved to be in the top 20, but top 3???REALLY??
“make me feel so lucky -7”
YASS!!! Added to the ever growing list of Beyutiful accolades and accomplishments
Now gonna watch the sour losers start with the excuses for why their fav songs didnt evn make the top 100 at all
Here we go, let the lamentations begin 😀
OF COURSE SHE DID BEYONCE IS A LEGEND AN ICON ALREADY SHE IS NUMBER 1 IN EVERYTHING FOR REALZ THAS MY GIRL AND I LOVE HER.
I agree because she’s the only one on the list who started the 00’s big (Independent Women, Survivor, Bootylicious then Crazy in Love and Baby Boy )and ended the decade big (with Single Ladies and Halo.)
The other one who achieved quite the same results is actually her “huzzband” Jay-Z.
All the others started huge but kind of fell off somewhere on the road ( Usher, Nelly, Alicia Keys, Outkast, Britney, Xtina).
King B***** !!!!
Congratulations King B.
What is Gaga doing in the top 3? Her euro-pop music shouldn’t be compared to music from that decade, especially not music from the early 00s. And I am missing “Where’s The Love” by The Black Eyed Peas.
Pretty satisfied with the position of Rihanna’s “Umbrella”, and Mariah’s “We Belong Together”, those were two of the biggest songs of the decade, so they definitively deserve to be in the top ten.
I need to see more Eminem songs on that list though. And how dare they put Ke$ha’s “Tik Tok” on this list? Dammit, she shouldn’t be on this list!
@Mishka
I think Eminem also belongs in that list too along with Beyonce and Jay-Z; He’s been pretty consistent throughout the decade (excluding his hiatus), and now he’s back on top again.
IT SEEMS LIKE BEYONCE IS VERY OVERRATED IN UNITED STATES CAUSE I LIVE IN EUROPE AND TRUST ME BEYONCE IS JUST POPULAR IN AMERICA MAYBE LONDON TOO BUT FOR THE REST OF THE WORLD SHE4+ S NOTHING SHES JUST CONSIDERED LIKE AN RNB ARTIST WHO MAKE THE SAME SONGS AGAIN ANDAGAIN SHE DOESNT HAVE THE STATUT OF LEGEND THAT SHE THINKS SHE HAS THERES PLACE HERE WHERE YOU ASK DO YOU KNOW BEYONCE ?NOBODY ANSWERS FOR SURE BUT WHEN YOU ASK DO YOU KNOW MADONNA OR MICHAEL JACKSON EVERYBOY KNOWS THEM I SIMPLY THINK SHE HAS TOO MUCH TO DO TO TOUCH THE WORLD CAUSE SHE S DEFINITELY NOT A LEGEND BUT I LIKE HER VERY MUCH BUT SHE NEED TO WORK ON HER CREATIVITY TO GET TO THE LEVEL OF ICON THAT SHE WANT TO BE CAUSE IVE NEVER HEARD ABOUT ONE OF HER SONG AND TOLD TO MYSELF WHATS CREATIVITY
Good list!
The worst list ever! Lmaooo But go Bey I swear Ciara Atleast needed 2 lol Where Is riri Rude Boy? What’s Taylor swift doing there? Colbie who? Who are these ppl?
Let´s see: that is definitely her best song so I feel good with it being at #1, although this type of lists are only a subjective thing.
But seriously: how is “Bootylicious” or Pussicat Dolls or JLo´s I´m real even in the list??????????????? LOL They are supposed to be talking about Good songs right? Quality right? Not succes, just best songs. Well they got so many things wrong, although there are some others right
And TGJ got it right this time: she is “one” os the best to debut within the last 20 years, not the best or biggest. I see progress in the ass kissing
Some parts of the List is a MESS!
Umbrella and We belong together should be higher then poker face but ok
And crazy in love deserves it.
I always said DIL is and will REMAIN her BEST ERA!
thetruth you ‘re a liar beyonce he is considered to be legend who are incredible on stage so shut up
Yasssssssss!!!!!! at Gaga getting top 3 😀
BUT I already saw this list a few days ago on ATRL.You are late with this,Sam
and Yasssss at Miss Knowles tasking the TOP honor…
I do want #3 to switch with #49 though
omg i miis old music old hits from 1999 2005 i want to comeback this era again
Awwww congratulations Beyonce !
I love Gaga and all but I think that We Belong Together and Umbrella should be higher !
Kylie with cant get you outta my head…nd madonnas hung up,usher love in the club nd confessions,alicia keys falling…dat list is bulshit,ther r atleast 50 other great sngs that nd2 b on that list…
But I wont complain though because they could have been lower….lower as I mean like 100 like Sisqo LMAO !
Meh, I agree with ASAP. the concept of a ‘ best song of the 2000’s just screams ignorance to me, though im sure i’d have eagerly believed in that s*** when i was 14. I actually found myself disliking the whole list as I skimmed over it. It just looked like someone compiled a ‘Top 40’s Radio Hits’ from every year and made a list with it- which for all I know someone did.
Can’t really say Beyonce deserved to win with that song but looking over the list, can’t really say any of them deserved to be at the top. Just generic pop music with a few interesting pieces. Meh, if it makes folks happy then cool. Some of this shot though is so random.
P.s. What the f*** is a ‘noughtie’?
Too little too late shud be on there by jojo and many other songs shud be on there but im suprised beautiful liar isnt on there.
@PATY i love beyonce shes my favourite artist but i used to be like you i thought be eyonce was huge all over the world but when i get in europe i was very surprised only young blak knew beyoncé and on the contrary almost evrybody knew who was rihanna and i was very surprised am just talking in term of impact Look Britney spears she can’t sing dance but she has a great fanbase her tours gain more money than beyonce she has more impact all over the world how can u explain that?even the first week of sales she sells 500000 ALBUMS when bey only do 300000 the first and bey is more talentuous thats its simply due to the impact that she has over the world think about it ??? in america beyonce is a godess she’s a queen but in the worldwide do you think its the same??? hel no sorry
No wait a minute Beyonce is big all over the world !
@Those who cannot do,stan
Noughties = ’00s
The King #BowDown
the list is full of b******* but congrats Beyonce.
CIL is an amazing song,not her best but an amazing one
Does this actually make a diff? We Belong Together was best song of the decadeee!
Without the sample and rap for Jay Z the song would of been basic, but really VH1, lol they USE to play music videos like MTV , but now reality TV shows, who takes these list seriously
and DEAD”@ Bey being called groundbreaking the whole list sucks,
WBT by Mariah Carey is Record of the DECADE,
it’s what you american think but sorry its not the case you need to travelll as i did to notice by yourself
Beyonce is international B**** !
the black eyed peas here in france do their showshere in france only in stadium britney do 5 even 6 paris bercy the equivalent of your madison square garden beyonce do only ONE and it takes months to complete
AGREED
thetruth
That’s why her WORLD tour I AM.. TOUR GROSSED OVER 120 MILLION RIGHT?
Which she had more dates in Europe over 48
33 in North America
9 in Australia
12 in Asia
2 in Africa
10 in South America
Oceania
AND the Caribbean Trinidad and Tobago
No it doesnt you are probably too young to even understand that Queen Beyonce is a big star !
@THETRUTH
Your point b****?Excuse beyonce she is not some french local artists.Beyonce sold 3 shows there w/o promo in weeks.Try again ➡
Lmao stop with the lies we know @TRUTHTELLER is a bey hater hence the BS i live in Europe too im sure some if those ppl who bought tickets to her sold out shows know her lol. Beyonce is bigger than both Britney n Rih
1. She was voted world’s greatest popstar on a UK music channel poll in 09/10. Britney was top 10 and Rih wasn even a factor
2. Her ticket prices are higher than Britney’s in UK/Ireland
3. This year they jus voted her world’s greatest dancer
4. She and Britney have sold 6million records in UK. excl their latest albums, Bey has 3 albums while Brit has 6
5. Go Compare the chart peaks of IASF singles to those of Circus n tell me who’s bigger. Brit has no huge fanbase in Europe tbh after her 2nd single, her songs barely reach top 20
@ Bey`Knight What are you talking about Britney has an huge fanbase just like Gaga, Rihanna and Beyonce for your information !
@BEYKNIGHT
7-Rihanna is bigger yet beyonce is the one who was on the cover of one of the most prestigious mag there “L OFFICEL” ?
8-Rihanna/brit are bigger yet beyonce was tributed at their NRJ show 2 years ago for her career and her achievement?
Truth 3everything you own,on the box to the ➡ “
What more can i say?Get It Beyonce,its just your luck. Lady gaga top 3ree?that’s f****** bad. Anywho d list is cool.
thetruth

RIGHT??! HAVE A SEAT
Emm Im from Europe too and Beyonce is HUGE over here!
@ Jess Is Rihanna, Britney, Gaga are too ?
And for someone to say only black girls know her wow thats jus racist and a pathetic attempt to undermine the woman’s success. If u dont like her, fine stop tryna convince urself she’s not huge. When i went to her O2 concert in Ireland, i dint even see any blacks, i went w/ my Irish friends, we couldnt get tix til d 3rd date cus they kept sellin out. This was May 09, she had to add more dates in Nov.
These trash is really makin me lol. Go and read interviews , articles on her by european media, Beyonce is queen! In all the 3 festivals she performed in they declared her the best. All reviews were positive n nobody booed or accused her of drunkeness. Her perfume went to no1, Britney’s did not! And her ad was not banned durin d day like Bey’s
Im pretty sure u have to big outside US to be no2 on Forbes most powerful celebrities list and no 6 Times mag most influential people’s list
Nuff said
@ JAMIR21
Yep Beyonce, Rihanna, Britney and Gaga are all big in europe
GET IT BEE,ITS YOUR LUCK. @THE TRUTH…NOTHING FOR YOUR FAV?NOT EVEN TOP 70?
Go look at where Beyonce went on her last tour! She went to America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia! If thats not Worldwide I dont know what is!
@ Jess Wow I am soooo proud of my faves !
What country do you live in europe ?
@ Jess Yeah like if thats not international then what is !?
@Bey’knight
So are you from Ireland? Cause I am lol
@JAMIR21
Im from Ireland 🙂
@ Jess Oh Ireland looks sooo beautiful from the pictures that I seen !
I love all of Europe !
Europe <3333333
considering beyonce played Glastonbury the biggest European festival in the land. she does have WW appeal so try again
I live in Europe and I can confirm that Rihanna is more popular than Beyonce over here. Riri is immensely popular over here, it’s almost ridiculous considering she’s just 6 years into her career. Same with Gaga, but she’s huge everywhere I guess. I think European people have this love-hate relationship with both Beyonce and Gaga, which is probably the reason Rihanna is sometimes considered bigger than them. Overall, people seem to like Rihanna, whereas Gaga is too extreme and Beyonce is… well, I don’t actually know why people dislike her, but Rihanna is exciting, new, fresh, always changing – I think that’s a positive thing here in Europe. Rihanna has a lot of haters in the US. Europeans are more open-minded when it comes to music, I think and Americans expect a lot – performing skills, writing skills, entertaining – thus, why Gaga and B are so huge in the US
Well Beyonce, Rihanna, Gaga, Britney are huge all around the world !
OH YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
http://beatlesnumber9.com/beatlemania1.jpg
^^^^^^ Hmmmm I Beatlemania !
@*
STOP TRUTH,WE KNOW IT S YOU
DAVID GUETTA BEP AND LMFAO ARE MORE POPULAR ALSO
The biggest WW ones r Bey and Gaga idk about rihannaa but i know Bey always out sells rihanna in Europe countries
@ BC Delusional
The biggest ww ones are RIHANNA, Beyonce, Gaga, Britney and Khia !
Thers is no point arguing who’s bigger in Europe, Beyonce/Rihanna/Britney/Gaga because everyone is going to have differant opinions! There all big over here!
@JAMIR21
you think Ireland looks beautiful? haha well it ok but the weather is s***! lol
Beyonce is local
that’s why she tops LOCAL VH1 list,won LOCAL GRAMMMYS
#STAYPRESSED
@ Jess Yeah I think its beautiful…and the weather over here in the us is s*** !
Yeah you cant compare worldwide megastars next to each other it doesnt make sense !
You should only compare worldwide superstars to local acts like Katy Perry, Khia, Ashanti, Chris Brown, Jason Derulo, J.Cole and the list goes on and on !
@JAMIR21 Well our countryside is really nice!
I was in New York once in the autumn and its was so hot! lol
Yeah theres no point! It such a waste of time! Their all big worldwide!
@ Jess yeah in the us we have strange weather like New Jersey is an example !
Because one day last year it was HOT and it was FALL !!!
LMAO @someone asking who is colbie caillat is?
Those kids
Congratulations, Beyonce. “Crazy In Love” still recieves heavy play in my i-Pod.
And for the person that stated Beyonce only has African-American fans is racist and ignorant. Forget other countries, I attended her I Am…Sasha Fierce concert here in Houston, and people of all races attended.
Who takes these lists serious???? Every channel and magazine has different song as their number ones.
@Thetruth
I live in Germany (europe) She is very populer EVERYWHERe chiNA,southAFfricA,germany,Japan even korea,
BRAZIL is one of the biggest STANs
in europe she is most Populer : SPAIN,FRANCE;UK,IRLAND,BELgiA
Oly african american realy THATS…why on The IAm sasha fierce DVD BRAZIL,JAPAN,London went of the most !!!??
the point is Beyonce is very popular WW. case closed
so is gaga,rihanna and britney
VH1 is stuck on Beyince just like the rest of America!!!! She will go down in history as the most overrated fool in the last 20 years… Not to mention a liar and a thief! And I agree beyonce is not as big worldwide like her fans say she is! Not ” EVERYONE” know her! Unlike bey stans, some ppl like listening to good music and not childish BS like RTW! Grow up
CLASSY_GUY

VH1 is stuck on Beyince just like the rest of America!!!! She will go down in history as the most overrated fool in the last 20 years…
———————
Thanks,you just co-sign SIMON COWEL statement on the 20 years,an UK citizen and not american 🙄
@ classy guy but she has been all over the world
plz ignore people like CLASSY_GUY. probably a riri stan trying 2 shade bey.
if bey is not that big in the UK why does the X factors over there always hav her and when they do why do they always receive there highest ratings when she comes on?? nice try though
@ BC He is not a riri stan he is a chris brown stan !
CIL is definitely top 5, it has made top 5 in several other list too. but i don’t think that poker face is #3, but for sure top 20. i didn’t see ciara’s goodies on there that should of been top 50
atleast. also coldplay’s viva la vida i think should of been top 50 also.
i think the list would of been more accurate if they split it up with each genre, like best pop songs, best r&b, and best rock, because it is really hard to compare a r&b and rock with rap and pop songs.
The truth i don’t what remote part of the world you live in but Beyonce is famous everywhere. When she went to Japan people didn’t know what she was singing about but they knew every word to every song and they sung along. In the south Americas they love Beyonce Spanish version of songs and they all gain no the words to all her songs. Maybe its just the people you hang around because I know for sure Beyonce is a international star especially after I Am World Tour.
rihanna, beyonce, lady gaga, and now adele. these are WW artist.
@ Commander Of the Dance Floor
and Britney tooo !!!!
Adele idk !
wow chris is a local artist 4 real
@ bc i know lol
One of the best songs from DIL. I love that song.
@BC Hell I didn’t ask for any responses anyways so plz do me a favor and ignore! Youre the same piece of caca that shades artists on ither posts!
i dont shade other artist i just tell facts not necessarily my options ok.
chris is a beyonce stan anyway so i cant be mad at him
Ladies and gentlemen, Chris Brown isn’t a local artist. He has fans all over the world as well. Hence him selling out tours outside of America. Just let these people be great.
Well if chris isnt then katy is
I love Chris Brown and his music but he is a woman abuser and no matter how much i try to block it out it will always be there. If he was a normal person people would have been going ham and everybody and there Grandmother would have beat his ass but just because he is a celebrity its justified. Rihanna Im so happy for your success on loud because it shows everybody that Chris Brown is a little spec compared to you.
ok ok well idk about chris but he is nothing when u talkin about Bey,Gaga and Adele
BC:
It wouldn’t make any since to compare him to those ladies, because they’re not his peers. And besides, Chris has his own accomplishments. He’s great at what he does all on his own. That’s why I don’t understand why these stan wars take place. It’s not like the insults being thrown are going to change a person’s success.
No, Beyonce has no standing out in Europe. That’s why she was the first female in 20 years to perform at Glastonbury, the Euro festival of all Euro festivals and that’s also why “Best Thing I Never Had” reached the top 5 in UK and Ireland. -_- I swear anyone who throws shade at Bey doesn’t know what they’re talking about.
The list is ok but, where is Irreplaceable, that was a big song. Also people should and need to understand that Beyonce has surpass “ICON” status, she’s a “LEGEND” in her own era and this iher last album is really a “classic” and goes really hard. If being honest listen to her album from start to finished, she’s leaving her foot marks in the music industry. She’s not making bubbl gum music for the time being or whatpeople want to pop off in the clubs, you’ll be able to go back 10- 20 years later and still enjoyed her music/sounds. Beyonce really do set those bars high even for herself. That’s why she’s in a lane all by herself and no-one can catch her. Real talk.
u right 🙂
flop b****
the song ir not original its made by the chilites beyonces a copycat
chilites made it a hit first
This list is ok but, where is Irresplaceable, that was a big song. Also people should and need to understand that Beyonce has surpass “ICON” status, she’s a “LEGEND” in her own era and this her last album is really a “classic” and goes really hard. If being honest listen to her album from start to finished, she’s leaving her foot marks in the music industry. She’s not making bubble gum music for just right now or what people want to pop off in the clubs. you”ll be able to go back 10-20 years later and still enjoyed her music/sounds. Beyonce really do set those bars high even for herself. That’s why she’s in a lane all by herself and no-one can catch her. Real talk.
@ Sammie Well Beyonce`s version has gotten more recognition !
BEYONCE >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> YOUR FAVE !
Omg its just the beats not the words to the actual song. Rappers and other musicians have been using the same beats for years so get off it.
Yes, this list is ok but where is “IREPLACEABLE” that too was a big song. People need to understand that Beyonce has surpass the “Icon” status and she’s a “Legend” of her own era. This her last album from start to finished was a “classic” and it goes really hard. It embrace the growth and maturity of Beyonce and allows her to leave her stamp in the music industry. She’s not making bubble gum music but real feel good music. In 10-20 years you’ll be able to still play her music and feel good. Beyonce really do set the bars high even for herself, that’s why she’s in a lane all to herself and no-one can catch her. This is real talk.
Ok let me get to the point :
1- I don’t know WTF is VH1
2- this list is s***** ! there’s some ppl who just .. Ugh ..
3- CIL is a classic
4- DIL Is her best classic masterpiece album
5- RIHANNA IS MORE POPULAR than BEYONCE WW ! But not only black ppl like her , that was racial !
You will be walkin in a f***** desert and u can hear WMN !! Rihannas popularity is ridiculous , the same goes to Britney ! BEYONCE is not that popular WW to be honest ! But she’s mostly respected as an artist and she’s superior ! I don’t like to compare artists !! Shes not local ! BEYONCE is a f****** international icon ! SL was playing in everywhere ! So she’s popular ! But not like Rihanna , so sorry ..
6- I still don’t care about this list , but I love this song , I love BEYONCE Knowles , and that pic is great ..
#bye
Best song of 2003 but not best song of the 2000’s. There are many competitive songs that are great. But I don’t think anyone can say that this is the best song of the 2000’s. I think everyone is entitled to their opinion but this is such a big honor to give someone. I like Umbrella it’s still edgy and does not sound dated. Britney Spears has a couple of wonderful selections to choose from, Lady Gaga as well, and I love Leona Lewis “Bleeding in Love” and James Blunt “You’re Beautiful”.
This list is s***.
#28 though :bows:
WTF…..FTW even? Which cluster of trained m*****’s put this list together? Wait – as I clutch my perils in HORROR – don’t tell me! 🙂 I must not be reading this correctly. Is VH1 saying that over a decade (2000 – 2010) this is the most notable list of songs?
*Of all the DC songs…….BOOTYLICIOUS made the list…..WHAT? How about INDEPENDENT WOMEN, SURVIVOR or SOLDIER ? Those were much better songs.
*Where is NO AIR (Jordan&Chris)? They play that song till this very day as if it came out yesterday!
*21 Jay-Z – “99 Problems”, 61 Kelis – “Milkshake”, 38 Miley Cyrus – “Party In The U.S.A.” along with a few others shouldn’t be on this list at all!
*91 Creed – “With Arms Wide Open”, 98 3 Doors Down “Kryptonite”, 94 Daughtry – “It’s Not Over” 89 M.I.A. – “Paper Planes”
*31 Amy Winehouse – “Rehab” 17 Coldplay – “Clocks”…REALLY?
The staff at VH1 need to “pass the dutchie on the left hand side” *Bob Marley voice*
POP ROYALTY (RUDE BOY
when will this fantasy end with u thinking Rihanna is more popular than Beyonce
u said it ur self that numbers don’t lie and every time Beyonce out sells Rihanna.
@ Pop Royalty I dont think that Rihanna is popular than Rihanna because Beyonce has experienced more than Rihanna !

**91 Creed – “With Arms Wide Open”, 98 3 Doors Down “Kryptonite”, 94 Daughtry – “It’s Not Over” —> should have been higher on this list for they were great songs in their genre!
**31 Amy Winehouse should have had multiple entries BACK TO BLACK & NO GOOD are classics!
Overall this list is b******* and obviously skewed in a certain direction! *serious side-eye at VH1* for this H.A.M.!!
There is no way Rihanna Ios more popular than Beyonce WW that’s insane
@BC & @JAMIR 21 :
I live in f***** MAMA AFRICA ! My ass ain’t American ! So I know what’s meant by INTERNATIONAL
I can tell you who’s more popular !
Rihanna is RIDICULOUSLY more popular than BEYONCE ! It is UNCOMPARABLE ! She’s appealing to a lot of ppl than BEYONCE !
That’s not a shame ! BEYONCE is mostly R&B and that genre is not popular Like rihanna’s
music ! Logical enough ?!
anything other than that is a f***** lie ! deal 😉
I don’t know if you prefer to take that s*** INTRAVENOUS OR INTRAMASCULAR ! but :
RIHANNA >>> BEYONCE ” popularity wise ”
And Britney shits on them both …
I think you prefer it the INTRAMASCULAR WAY 😉
Ugh my comment not goin thru
Dis mobile site is poopy
@BEYONCESTANALLTHEWAY
B**** GO BACK TO BED! You must be out of your head! Chris and Rihanna had ONE FIGHT! A “woman abuser” is a person engaged in a REPEATED ACT…. you dumbass!!
You stan for BEYONCE who is married to the BIGGEST “DOMESTIC ABUSER” THERE IS! Jay-Z beat the hell out of Foxy Brown and Amil Lion while he was dating them. God only knows how many other women he has beaten over the years? Check Youtube and you can see him smacking and shoving a little girl out of his way all because she wanted to take his picture. GIRL SIT YOUR ASS DOWN NOW …….BETTER YET GO BACK TO BED!
LOL you speak of Rihanna but she’s only successful due feminists and media support. Real talent prevails through adversity…..hence CHRIS BROWN …..B****!
!
@BEYONCESTANALLTHEWAY
Also, I don’t hear you saying anything again EMINEM who beat his wife Kim. Shouldn’t your b******* theory apply to his as well? He and his wife had many knock down drag out fights for several years. Oh let me guess, Eminem get’s a “special pass” like Charlie Sheen, Sean Penn, & Tommy Lee right?
How about the others on the this? Shouldn’t you also discuss their issues of abuse with their wives & gfs? How about the drug addicts, husband and wife stealing whores, and those who beat their children? Shouldn’t you have something to say about them as well? STFU & GTFOH with that b*******
@Pop Royalty is getting more delusional by the day. I thought they were one of the logical ones, guess not…..
@..baa, why can’t i go topless?
eminem never beat his wife …big b*******
Africa lmao America is the place 2 be and idk if ur talin popularity all together or popularity as in now but Bey is and u have nothing 2 prove me wrong.
America is the #1 country
Britney >>>>>>>>>>>>> Beyonce
Who the f*** is VH1 ? LMAO ^^^
Beyonce #1 ? With that stupid song ?! you makes me laught!!! :)) 😀
The One and Only BRITNEY >>>>>>>>>>>> Flop-Once
@KAT DELUNA FAN
gwarl u aint never lied
@JESS
yeah i live n study in south Dublin
@JAMIR21
i agree they are all big but Beyonce is bigger than Britney and Rihanna worldwide
@madamextina
You must be very young or you’re acting brand new! Eminem beat the hell out of Kim many times. Hell he all most got 20 years for pistol whipping The lead singer/rapper of the Insane Clown Posse after he discovered they were dating the 1st time Kim left him for beating on her! I both saw her on TV and heard countless radio interviews with her discussing her years of torment with him! Love him all you want, frankly I don’t give a damn but don’t tell me what I didn’t see or hear! It’s funny how the media sweeps what they want under the rug once they decide to embrace an artist! Just like Charlie Sheen and his years of beating countless starlets, models, and whores!
pop royalty i live in fucken south africa and i can tell you, the beyoncé is way bigger than rihanna. why am i even wasting my breathe with a delusional dumbass like you.
By the way i always thought flop royalty was a hater, he is only bandwagoning for to be part of the conversation, he does the most trolling here, more than s*** for that matter. Every beystan should ignore him, he’s not worth it like the talentless dummy he stans for.
@POP ROYALTY
u keep posting uncorroborated ish, u have no receipt except for the fact that u live in Africa well guess what i lived in Nigeria too for many years,i was seeing Beyonce’s billboard everywhere in 2006
-the last time Britney was more popular than Beyonce was b4 2003 since u like comparing numbers so much go compare both their numbers between then and now
-do u know how Forbes makes up its most powerful lists, it uses
1. money rank
2. tv/radio rank
3. press rank
4.web rank
5.social rank
if all these things cant get Rihanna even on top 100 how the hell is she more popular than someone thats always in top half? and last time Britney was on it was 2010 or 2009 not sure but she was lower than Beyonce
-the most searched female celebrity online 09/10 was Gaga, 2nd Beyonce, 3rd Britney.
– stop using genre against. Bey’s songs were hits on several formats, she had the most top 10 hits of the last decade. in 2010 Rih surpassed her with Hard. Besides Usher is mainly RnB, Eminem is rap , u gon tell me Rih is more popular than them too?
– Beyonce has more hits on the pop charts than Britney, Britney only equalised last month sothey both have 6 no1s so Beyonce’s songs are POP HITS!
– HOW THE HELL IS RIHANNA MORE POPULAR, THE GIRL HAS NEVER EVEN TOURED ASIA. Beyonce toured there, her line is sold there, she has an endorsement to promote bottled water there, her pepsi ad was there too
– maybe within ur circle Rihanna is bigger but not ww, Rih has like wat 4 tours now, she hasnt even grossed 30million on at least one.
– and how do u explain Beyonce’s standard ticket costing more than Britney’s in Europe?
Everyone here knows that “Crazy in Love” is not the best song of the 00’s, ok her fans are happy but even her fans know the true.
The next list would be “what is the best song of all times”, OMG! is “Baby” by Justin Bieber.
The Music industry has become GARBAGE.
i will just say this, beyonce has been out for 16 years, and rihanna 7 years. currently rihanna is more popular, but beyonce was known way before rihanna. i am not talking about past popularity i am talking about this year. no shade
@baa, you said rihanna is only popular because of feminist and media support! you delusional chris brown stan, what sense does that make. if this was true rated r would of sold way more than 3 million. please have a seat, your delusions are getting worse.
OMG! this is new…..Beyonce more popular than Britney Spears, Britney maybe is not in her best days but Beyonce not even in her best days was more Famous than Britney.
@ONYX,
overall popularity britney beats rihanna and beyonce
Ahah i live in europe too beyonce s loved here too u can neva compare it to stupid poker face or that s*** s song umbrala. Beyonce s a legend in america,africa,asian,europe.oceanie al the world congrats king b
Mariah Carey – “We Belong Together” was the song of the decade, full stop. Billboard announced it themselves.
Bad Romance >>> Poker Face but yes at her getting the top 3! Beyonce better do it!!! GET MONEY B****!!! Lol. #KhiaStatus
@BC
i cant with his delusional ass lol, i like @POP ROYALTY though but i think the navy is tellin him alot of bull and he’s eating up,
why dint they ask Rih to do glastonbury? after all she already an album out and, Beyonce was on break and still got that phone call
when Beyonce went to Brazil , their corporate media covered it , it was major news, Rih was there recently, a Brazilian only found out on tgj cus the media dint cover it
Beyonce received merit award for “outstanding contrribution to the arts” at the WORLD MUSIC AWARDS
Bey has 5 MTV EMAs, for someone who’s “not that big” in Europe, thats plenty, 2nd most wins for a female only behind Britney and most of Britney’s even came when pre-meltdown . Rih has 0 wins plenty nods, if she’s so popular why dint they vote for her?
lawd this is just too easy, just stick to raisning ur 10number 1s placard
I don’t understand some people obssesion with Beyonce, i just don’t get it, she’s not that special or is just me, i got a problem 4 think she is not that good.
yes Beyonce has been more popular than Britney since 2003 and i have the facts to back it up, its not 2001 anymore, people have moved on!
Beyonce s a legend britney s a legend too and beyonce sold more records than britney pe beyonce s the1 her latest album4 went straight on number1 while britney s album hit the top 30 why u comparing those two amazing legend to to that s*** rihanna?
that list is a PLATINUM certified A1 HOT MESS
How rihanna guna play glastonbery whe she cnt sing uh that show aint some cheap festival
@ONYX
she doesnt have to be special to u, u have ur fav, and others have theirs which happens to be Beyonce, thats not an obsession! we’re not advertising or promoting her to u even if u dont think she’s that good, u are entitled to your opinion, u coulda given ur 2cents about the post and left, noone asked u to stick around
@Peggy Hylton
I am an American and i live in New York City, Beyonce is famous just like every singer female today but she is no a legend, you want 2 see what people Americans think are legends, Martin Luther King, Elvis Presley, James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Michael Jackson, Madonna, they are American Symbols, we are proud of these people, not of Beyonce.
Beyonce for life no women does it like her
@bey’knight
I don’t hate Beyonce, i just wonder why people are so mad 4 her in this site, is like the Music don’t exist before her.
@ONYX I GOT FAMILY IN NEW YORK WHEN WE TALK ON PHONE ABOUT ARTIST BEYONCE COMES FIRST WHEN I CAME THERE ON HOLIDAY MOST MUSIC CHANNEL
Playd her music non stop and everyone respect her @ONYX R U ANTI BEY?
@commanderofthedancefloor
Follow the nexus of the conversation or stay out of a discussion that didn’t concern you! And you are the one who is delusional if you think that what’s her name is more popular than Beyonce! Girl here, have several seats _/_/_/_/ Thank you!!
@onyx, and you’ll never understand it because your empty head is clogged up with stanning for talentless b****** like rihanna and britney spears. Fact is no one denied that rihanna is famous but please people should stfu about bey’s popularity when she broke osama bin laden’s record on twitter about her damn pregnancy.
@baa true talk rihanna only for promotion and sexual lyrics and bein a s*** i hate rihanna a girl who respect her parents wil never sing out loud i love the smell of s** eeerrk
That pregnant news was BIG
@Onyx
im not saying or thinking what u hate Beyonce, simply replying to what u wrote. if ppl are going mad 4 Bey here u only need to look at what the haters write about her to know why.
Beyonce is more than just a famous singer, she was the most successful female artist of the last decade according to billboard and the most certified artist of the last decade according to RIAA. She may not be a legend yet but she’s definitely an icon, if she wasnt she wouldnt be getting recognition and merit awards neither would she have wax figures in museums all over the world
@Peggy Hylton
No i’m not ant-Beyonce, my point is you can’t deny that Britney is more Popular than her, in fact why do you think she is still making albums because her fans would buy whatever s*** she puts out.
@Smh
I’m not a fan of Britney or Rihanna, the only women singer that i pay attention are Madonna and Janet jackson.
Thats fair i love beyonce and when she first came out with crazy in love i was so addicted to that song i could listen to it every hour so yeah i agree with vh1 GOBEYONCE im suprised that hey ya is on number 2
@bey’knight
You right this time, she’s an Icon not a Legend yet, thats my comments are about, she is still building her career, i don’t take her any credits because she deserve, but about wax figures even Kim Kardashian has one so thats does no count.
@onyx okay my bad, i apologise for assumming. And please stick with the post subject, which is about the vh1 list. p.s britney was more popular than bey before 2003, not now. You should really travel more like i do, then maybe you’ll get the drift.
@Onyx
Kim has one in LA for whatever reason , Beyonce has in UK, Germany like real celebrities, the fact that she’s been receiving merit awards before the age of 30 is plenty to write home about . not many singers can be listed on Time’s Most Influential People’s list. She and Gaga are the only musicians on the latest issues. if u look at her accomplishemnts u’l see she has achieved success in more areas than music
@Smh
Ok i respect your opinion but if you told me that Gaga is more popular than Britney now thats true, but to me Britney even not in her best days still is more popular than Beyonce, oh i’ve been in Spain, England, Netherland, Germany, Argentina, Brazil, Canada and Mexico, and everywhere was played Gaga, Britney, Rihanna and J.Lo with On the Floor, i sometimes listen “Sweet Dreams” by Beyonce, but that was what i listen f*** they even put Bieber and Katy Perry.
@bey’knight
I know more about Beyonce than you think, in my teens destiny’s child was big, i follow Beyonce’s career so i know she deserve what she got, but don’t you think some of you acts like she’s already give all she can give, to me she still has to prove something else.
Beyonce is the queen
You guys are pathetic.. Who says Rihanna and the rest are bigger than Beoynce.. Do u guys check records at all.. Beyonce has won award in almost every continent in the world.. Am from Nigeria in Africa, Beyonce’s Best thing I never had was the most played international song for over 8 weeks, her song Halo was #1 on our charts, the time it came out.. Halo was #1 in over #10 European Countries.. Her debut album was #1 in the European Charts… Bey’s 3 studio albums debuted at #1 in Japan… Her song Poison debuted at #1 in Russia.. Beyonce won Best RnB at the Mtv African music awards with single ladies… France Nrj awards named her the artist of the decade.. Rihanna has like 5 albums and all put together hasn’t sold up to 20 million Worldwide.. Bey’s first 2 studio efforts eclipses all her 5… Plzzz check records before saying stuffs.. Bey is Huge and bigger than Rihanna, she has a bigger fanbase that cuts across ages.. Riri has fans that are in their 20’s, Bey has a wider fan base made up of 20, 30’s etc.. Remember her tour attracted dignitaries in countries like US, Brazil, Egypt etc.. Plz don’t even compare Bey with the likes of Riri, Gaga and Brit.. Plzzzz
@Onyx
i dont think Bey has anything left to prove and she feels the same. she said just that on “Year of 4” however i would still like her to do something epic and groundbreaking in her next era. she’s proven herself as a singer, performer, dancer, artist, songwriter, marketable artist. a boss the only field she may need more work in is acting
@Beyfan
thank u! im originally from Nigeria too but i live in Ireland now 🙂
best thing i never had was most played song in UK too, not sure for how long though
I live in south africa and beyonce is very popular her in fact all over africa we in south africa even signed a petition for her to come here I remember when kelly rowland came here last year half of her questions on interview were about beyonce and beyonce was one of our most wanted acts to perform during our world cup trust me I see it everyday beyonce is very big here even school kids know her and rihanna is also well known her but not like rihanna but rihanna is also big here britney is big but not so much here nicki minaj whom I don’t like is bigger than britney at this moment in south africa ask anyone who lives her well adeles popularity has just went insane this year here everybody knows her and is talking about her do. You know how many times beyonce was asked to perform here….south africa loves beyonce
Bey is Huge and bigger than Rihanna, she has a bigger fanbase that cuts across ages.. Riri has fans that are in their 20’s, Bey has a wider fan base made up of 20, 30’s etc.. Remember her tour attracted dignitaries in countries like US, Brazil, Egypt etc.. Plz don’t even compare Bey with the likes of Riri, Gaga and Brit.. Plzzzz
———————————————————————————————————————-
Truth Syrup, i doubt Britney or Rihanna can pull off a special like I Am Yours, over 50s were at that show
Bye bye people, anyway congrats to B fans.
Mind spelling errors here not her
@POP @TRUTHTELLER
When U see that girl coming back up She ain’t ur AVG B**** back up.This is for the RIH-FUND stans. This is for this is for the RIH-FUND stans.
Bey ain’t the AVG chick she the Baddest chick!
Bey ain’t the AVG chick she the Baddest chick!
Hide ur FAV’s WIGS and they Grammys cause Beys making ur FLOP faves IRRELEVANT. Cuz She da one opening DOE’S, If its 4 B******, 2 Gotta gooooo(ala Cerror&Keri)…

Work Mrs. Carter
@truthteller
is a lousy Bey hater anyways he cant back up his ish
Wonder if beyonce will perform at the EMA’S ??? It would be dope if she did ow and you guys know that on the 30th it was the 2012 grammy submission closing date I wonder what beyonce submitted and I know my girl adele gonna slay hard
I see Lil Kim & Aaliyah’s Name So Im Good But Aaliyah’s Are You That Some Somebody & Only If Your Girl Knew Should Have Been Up Their ! & What The F*** Is MILEY CYRUS DOING UP THERE ????? O.o OOPS !!
*There
& Beyonce Got The Number 1 Spot ????? WHOOPSY !
Beyonce may not be hot wtv you live,but on this damn blog she is the BOSS.
Now if you can hail the King,take your s*** and go away
Noughties???? What the hell is that????
Wasnt We Belong Together #1 on billboard for like 3 months and was named Song of the decade? So how did this overrated song win? Just because she was shaking her ass in the whole video?
Well according to face book eminem tops their list,,,,followed by rihanna and then gaga in popularity
According to Youtube Eminem,,,,gaga and rihanna as of recently or three artists who has passed the Billion view mark, Just saying as far as popularity goes.
Crazy in love best singer of the noughties? VH1 is selling short the noughties… A lot of these songs are awful.
my mum nor most of her friends is on facebook and they are Beyonce fans. it doesnt exactly appeal to their demographic
Beyonce has passed a billion views too and besides that doesnt really say much Rih has been out Gaga have been out for the past 2 years with projects while Beyonce just returned from a year long break. i still wonder how none of these helped Rih get a spot on Forbes; Katy, Taylor Swift, Eminem, Biever were all there… maybe next year
for those asking NOUGHTIES = 00s ie year 2000 – 2009
its used on European tv alot i guess its a European lingo lol
lmao u poor haters dont u ever get tired of sounding like a broken record. there is more where this came from. Beyonce will continued to be praised and adored for many years to come. she’s guaranteed to have people on stage performing her songs b4 they give her a tribute award when she’s 40+ 50+ and so on she’s left her mark and u are all non-factors but we appreciate. Whats a star w/o haters?
The fact that a song like Snow Patrol – Chasing Cars doesnt make the list makes it fail. A song with actual emotion and meaning.. half the list is worthless crap
And since when has Youtube and facebook and all those stuffs become a criteria for measuring how big an artist is… my mum is Beyonce fan and she doesn’t watch youtube videos… We all know that its those in their 20’s and alittle bit of the 30’s watch youtube for music videos.. The likes of Madonna, Mariah and Whitney are one of the most popular singers ever lived, do they have up to a billion views on youtube.. Plz sit… Beyonce’s popularity isn’t measured by youtube views or facebook likes or twitter followers.. Her songs attract people of different ages.. Mind u she was the first female to win International Artist award.. An award based on how popular an artist is worldwide… Irreplaceable is one of the most popular songs ever.. Its the 2nd highest biggest song on the radio.. And shattered airplays worldwide.. Plz guys sit… U can’t find a 40 something listening to Riri mediocre music.. Plsss
lies
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! ALL HAIL KING B!!! SHE TOTALLY DESERVE IT. OUT OF EVERYONE ON THAT LIST, SHE WAS THE MOST CONSISTENT OF THE 2000S. CHURNING OUT MEGA HIT SONGS AS THE LEAD SINGER OF DESTINY’S CHILD AND AS A SOLO ARTIST. HENCE WHY BILLBOARD NAMED HER THE FEMALE ARTIST OF THE DECADE. LOL @ HATERS TRYING TO CLAIM SHE’S NOT INTERNATIONAL. IS THAT WHY BEYONCE WAS HAND PICKED TO HEADLINE THE BIGGEST MUSIC FESTIVAL IN EUROPE(GLASTONBURY) AND NOT RIHANNA? BEYONCE LAST WORLDWIDE TOUR,GROSSED MORE THAN 100MIL+(170MIL ACCORDING TO FORBES). HER LASTEST ALBUM WAS #1 IN 21 COUNTRIES. WHEN RIHANNA ACHIEVE THOSE FEATS THEN WE CAN TALK. BEYONCE’S GLOBAL IMPACT AND APPEAL IS UNMATCHED.
Best songs of the ’00s?????
LMAOOOOOOO. This song was PURE SHITE! Rihannas Umbrella was DEFINITELY better
Who voted for this piece of SHITE song????? 😕
And BLEACHonce has never co-written anything. As we ALL know, BLEACHonce has a history of being dishonest about what songs she wrote
But in more IMPORTANT news
Rihanna>>>>>>>>>>>.BLEACHonce
& 4closure is a FLOP FLOP FLOP 😉
IF RIHANNA & BRITNEY WERE THAT BIG IN THE UK, WHY DID BEYONCE’S APPEARANCE ON THE UK X-FACTOR GIVE THE SHOW IT’S BEST RATINGS?!? NEVER MIND BRITNEY, GAGA AND RIHANNA HAVE BEEN ON THE SHOW MULTIPLE TIMES. YET BEYONCE WAS ON THERE ONCE AND SHE DEMOLISHED THE RATINGS. I WON’T EVEN GET INTO THE VMA’s
I mean Beyonce is the King…it’s only right. #KanyeShrug
@baa,
have several seats, more popular means who is in demand right now and this year it has been rihanna more than beyonce, she has sold more and her singles have done better, i didn’t say she was more popular in general i said this year, and that is true.
@Peggy Hylton,
if your liking this position you can tape it on your video phone!, that is what beyonce sings in video phone both rihanna and beyonce sell s**. your comment is void. and britney has sold over 100 million albums and beyonce 30 million as a solo artist and 50 million with destinys child that is still only 80 million combined so britney is not worried she may not be selling now but she has nothing else to prove.
@Bey fan your fave do watch youtube, Now DON’T U Forget that shes INSPIRED BY YOUTUBE. aND THIS HAS TO DO WITH POPULARITY DEAR, And according to
forbes and many others they considers a artist any artiast popularity by three things
#1 Youtube Views
#2 Twitter
#3 Face book and Eminem has 47,475.040
RIHANNA HAS 45,560.136 & Lady ga ga has 43,990.036 this is to clarify
the Debate about POPULARITY,,,Deery Nothing more and nothing less . Lists & awards will never pay the Utilities bills or Your medical or Dental bills, DEERY!
IF RIHANNA IS THAT POPULAR, WHY CAN’T SHE MAKE THE FORBES LIST?!? I MEAN POPULARITY IS 1 OF THE DECIDING FACTORS FOR THAT LIST. BEYONCE HAS BEEN MAKING THAT LIST SINCE DESTINY’S CHILD. POOR RIHANNA STILL CAN’T SCORE A #1 ALBUM IN THE BIGGEST MUSIC MARKET IN THE WORLD(AMERICA), AFTER 5 TRIES.
@All the others started huge but kind of fell off somewhere on the road ( Usher, Nelly, Alicia Keys, Outkast, Britney, Xtina)
this is the main reason why I cannot stand people who make up s***,….
first of all Alicia Keys has never fell off..the bish has sold more albums than beyonce….ln the R&B world, Alicia keys is a force to be reckoned with, even though beyonce is a bigger star than she is world wide, alicia album sales shits on beyonce album sales.
second..britney has never fallin off either even in her worst day, she still was selling better than half of these singers out there, see BLACKOUT..
Mariah Carey – “We Belong Together” was the song of the decade, full stop. Billboard announced it themselves.
^^^ This we know.
Lol
Congrats to her even though i don’t think that this is the #1 single, i’ll stick with Billboard. Nonetheless, this is one of her greatest songs. It has that something that kinda makes it one of her signature songs. So congrats to her. Most of the time VH-1 is full of crap with these lists, and it has nothing to do with Beyonce. I do disagree that Beyonce is a bigger star than Britney. She may be more consistent. But i don’t see her as a bigger star. Just my take.
@MS LOVELY Rihanna has sold over 10million albums in the uk you had better check your fact sheet again. and rihanna is the only Artist who has ever did it like Elvis back in the 50 and that is to have 5 #1’s for 5 consecutive years in a row.
As a matter of fact it was talked about and HIGHLIGHTED around the net when RIHANNA reached that milestone because it has never been done before.
@ LAX
YET EVEN WITH THOSE QUESTIONABLE LISTS, SHE STILL COULDN’T MAKE IT ON FORBES. CLEARLY THOSE LISTS DON’T GENERATE REVENUES OR PAY THE BILLS. RIHANNA PUT OUT BACK TO BACK ALBUMS,WENT ON TOUR AND HAD NUMEROUS ENDORSEMENTS, AND STILL COULDN’T MAKE THE LIST. MEANWHILE BEYONCE WAS A 1 YEAR BREAK AND STILL MADE IT ON THE LIST.
Alicia “falling” EPIC i don’t care how it is sliced and diced, PERIOD
Mariah, ICONIC LEGEND!
yesss QUEEN B! And DIL sold 12 million copies to date! Even Chris Moyles confirmed it 🙂

IF RIHANNA & BRITNEY WERE THAT BIG IN THE UK, WHY DID BEYONCE’S APPEARANCE ON THE UK X-FACTOR GIVE THE SHOW IT’S BEST RATINGS?!? NEVER MIND BRITNEY, GAGA AND RIHANNA HAVE BEEN ON THE SHOW MULTIPLE TIMES. YET BEYONCE WAS ON THERE ONCE AND SHE DEMOLISHED THE RATINGS. I WON’T EVEN GET INTO THE VMA’s
F*** the UK every artists want to have success in the USA.
@LAX
DEAD @ 10MIL ALBUMS. YOU MUST BE SPEAKING ABOUT HER SINGLES. I LOVE HOW WHEN IT COMES TO ALBUM SALES, THE RIHANNA STANS AVOID TALKING ABOUT HER ALBUM SALES IN AMERICA. 5 ALBUMS DEEP AND SHE HAS ONLY SCANNED 6 MIL+ IN ALBUM SALES(DREADFUL!). MEANWHILE GAGA IS ABOUT TO SURPASS HER WITH JUST 3 ALBUMS. EVEN WITH HER MULTIPLE FORGETTABLE #1 SONGS, HER BEHIND IS STILL GETTING WHOOPED BY GAGA AND ADELE.
@ ASAP:
I don’t know or give a s*** what techno fans think, but don’t you presume to speak on behalf of rock fans.
F*** BEYONCE THIS CHICK IS SO IRRELEVANT OUT SIDE OF THE US IF SHE WAS NOT F****** JAYZ SHE WOULD BE ON THE SEAT WITH C-ERROR & FIST BROWN I HOPE THIS FAKE B**** BEYONCE LOSES THAT DAM BABY… THEN MAYBE SHE CAN MAKE A GOOD SONG OR 2 ABOUT REAL STUFF.. LIKE QUEEN RIHANNA DOES
RIHANNA SLAYS YO FAVS
TAKE A SEAT C-ERROR & FIST BROWN FANS YO STANS COULD NEVER TAKE THE NAVY HAHAHAHAHAAH
aww poor kelly rowland the only one she is commanding is that EBT card in her pocket haha no number 1s for that flop b**** haha take a seat her i flop casue we are crazy in love <3
@ ONYX
IN THAT CASE, RIHANNA IS SCREWED. THE AMERICA AUDIENCE WOULD RATHER BUY HER SINGLES THAN BUY HER ALBUMS. I WON’T EVEN TALK ABOUT HER TOURING OVER HERE , THAT’S CONSIST OF CANCELLATIONS AND UNDERPERFORMED
@MS LOVELY,
i don’t know where you got 6 million from, she has sold 20+ million albums. and 60+ million singles which is the most for any artist.
HERES MY RECIEPTS
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rihanna_discography
@CARL
YESSSSSSSS!!!! DIL EVENTUALLY GO ON TO SELL 12MIL TO DATE. SOMETHING RIHANNA WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO DO.
@Ms Lovely
What makes you think that i’m here 4 Rihanna.
@commanderofthedancefloor
DEAD @ WIKIPEDIA BEING YOUR SOURCE . GIRL HAVE SEVERAL SEATS!!!! I WAS CLEARLY SPEAKING ABOUT HER ALBUM SALES IN AMERICA(THE BIGGEST MUSIC MARKET IN THE WORLD), ACCORDING TO SOUNDSCAN(TRACKS ACTUAL SALES), RIHANNA TOTAL ALBUM SALES IS AT 6MIL+. THAT’S FOR ALL HER ALBUMS. RIHANA’S ALBUM SALES IN AMERICA IS THE PITS!
@ONYX
DIDN’T SAY YOU WERE, I WAS GENERALLY SPEAKING ABOUT THE DELUDED RIHANNA STANS.
@BEY’knight :
I don’t eat everything the navy serve ..
I was speaking about popularity , and trust , Rihanna is more popular .. now at least !!! BEYONCE was the s*** during 2003-mid 2006 , she was untouchable when it comes to popularity and stuffs like that , but it is not the same anymore ..
There’s a difference between tours and popularity ..
PS : she visited Asia !! your point ?!
If u all wanna believe it , ok , if u won’t , then it’s ok too , but someone has to say it …
And don’t make me start with britney spears , that b**** cause headache to everyone here , I heard that f****** ” toxic” song more than I dranked water ! And everyone knows at least 5 songs from her s*** , I bet u to ask a random person on street and tell them give me 5 beyonce’s songs and he will get it right ! He/she will barely say SL and CIL ! but if u asked them about Rihanna or Britney , it’s gonna be better than this ..
Saying BEYONCE is less popular than Rihanna isn’t a shame , idk why you all took it so serious !?
And do u think the average person follows beyonce’s news like her fans ?! Do u think everyone care about Forbes and s*** like that in real life ?! 😉
Let’s not …
A lot of ppl don’t hive a flying f*** about all that !!
Do u think the WW media love BEYONCE to that point ?! I can’t ..
Her music is less appealing to a lot of ppl , I don’t wanna sound like a f***** hater , but deal with it ..
Plus Rihanna has kids by her side ! they are a major part of her stanbase ! this says a lot !
” proof : RR disaster ” !!
Can I say the same about BEYONCE ?! no I can’t cuz majorly her fanbase are mostly adults ! and they are her fans ! not the regular music lover !
But to just keep being honest , RIHANNA LOOKS play the major part in her popularity Not only her music or whatsoever .. ! u will be hearing desperate h*** in salons wanting her latest hair-do , etc.. !
Shes just more popular ! But best believe BEYONCE is mostly more respected ! I have seen a lot of her haters in real life and they always respect BEYONCE to the point it will make u question them : do u REALLY hate her ?!
That’s it ..
I don’t know if I live in another planet other than you , but in that one too , Rihanna and Britney are more popular .. ! Idk know the reason why they are like that , cuz apparently it is not BECAUSE of their talents or their real music but they are not that respected like after all ! Especially Rihanna ! I can’t defend her sometimes … u__u ! Her career is like s*** compared to BEYONCE’s !
^^^ Being in the spotlight more often than Bey and having more #1s =/= more popular.
umm I hate to burst yall bubbles, beyonce is not a bigger star than britney…
album sales, tour sales, perfume sales, britney shits on her…
yes beyonce is the better singer, but before britney’s break down, britney was the better entertainer, hence beyonce swagger jacking her moves..
britney can sell an album on her name alone, see BLACKOUT..britney can sell out tours on her name alone, see circus, and femme fetale tours..
but beyonce cant, see 4..beyonce has to be on every magazine covers, do interviews on every tv show, just to sell an album..
thats why i cannot stand the beyonce stans sometimes, they never want to give other folks their props..
Damnnnnnnnnnn @Pop Royalty Wrote A Whole Story For @Bey’Knight Lmfaooo
Hive= Give *
Not respected like BEYONCE *
@RatedXXX PREACH !
RIHANNA!!!!!!! – who on the chart top 20?
Wow 😯 ! Only now I realized I posted all that in a BEYONCE post …
I think I will run now .. 😆
@RATEDXXX(AKARATEDX
Totally agree with u
Beyonce needs interviews, magazine covers and television appearances to sell albums. So do all artists. Its called promotion. Nice argument RatedXXX
@ Rated X:
Stop living in the past. We’re no longer in the 1998-2004 era. Britney may have more overall album sales than Bey, but let’s not forget that most of those sales was when Britney actually was the biggest pop star around, which was a long time ago. But certainly not now.
This is what I hate about Britney stans. They insist on using decade-old receipts that mean s*** today.
Yes! Yes! Yes!, some Beyonce fans/stans never want to recognized something, they think B has it all, we already know that Beyonce has a good voice, is very talented and others things but please, they think Beyonce wins in everything just ask one of her Fans/Stans who is better than Jesus Christ and you would see the answer.
@King B :
Let’s not go there please , I still respect the fact I’m in a BEYONCE post !
Do not make me Go there with you ..
I know you don’t have to like everything I say … but re-read my comment and u will get what’s my point of view ! I didn’t say it’s a fact ..
Did I Say that my comments are facts ?!
No , I only say what I think ! That’s why I didn’t argue with everyone of you before !!
Beyonce and Rihanna are equally popular.
YEAH RIGHT
I think with ppl like @ONYX and my boo @RATEDXXX , I won’t be worrying about anything ! ppl can still be real !!
Someone had to say it after all to keep it real 😉
@KIM :
Lol ! Texting on iPhones make u Lose control 😆 !
I was speaking about popularity , and trust , Rihanna is more popular .. now at least !!! BEYONCE was the s*** during 2003-mid 2006 , she was untouchable when it comes to popularity and stuffs like that , but it is not the same anymore ..
There’s a difference between tours and popularity
I kinda have to agree with this. Beyonce is of course still very popular. But Rihanna has blossomed. Instead of “06”, i would say “08” tho, concerning Beyonce.
the biggest music market are..
1.U.S
2. U.K
3.JAPAN
rihanna is a bigger star in the u.k market and the japan market..thats a known fact…
meaning for the slow people..rihanna is a bigger star than beyonce outside of the U.S..
do u guys ever give other people their props?I mean damn…thats real HATE right there
Rihanna does have older fans !
My 30 yr. old aunt loves Rihanna
My 40 yr. old aunt loves Rihanna
Hell my 60 YEAR OLD aunt loves Rihanna B**** !
By the way Rihanna has sold near or about 7 million albums. First album gold, 2nd platinum, 3rd nearly 3x platinum, 4th p[latinum and her latest one platinum plus.

there’s nothing in this business called equally …
and can you argue with me who’s more popular now ?!
Just go to Rihanna Facebook page .. and tell me what u see 😉
But still BEYONCE is more respected though , I wont even argue with you over that , that’s a fact !!
@Pop Lmfaooo Anyways Ummm….Do You Know How To Reach/Get In Contact With Sam If You Have A Story/Article For Him???
I dont know if Britney is bigger than Beyonce but I do know is that during 1999-2003 britney was sort of bigger than bey !
@THE MAN :
2008 was beyonce’s and gaga’s year !
Just to keep it 100% real ! 😉
@ratexXXX :
Yes ! That’s what I wanted to tell them ! Thanks for being real ” you are always , but it was so noticeable this time , Especially what u said about Britney , let alone RIH RIH “” !
@Pop Royalty (RUDE BOY)
I Swear i didn’t know Beyonce was so loved until i met this site.
@KIM :
I don’t know exactly what can be done considering that … ! I never tried that !!
But just to be basic about it , try their Facebook page or SAM’s twitter “thatgrapejuice” !
Hope this will help 🙂 !
@ Onyx Yeah Beyonce is well loved by some delusional people !
@ DEAD at the person who said that Rihanna has never been to Asia BTICH SHE HAS BEEN EVERYWHERE OKAY EXCEPT FOR ANTARTICA !
@pop Thanks, You Did Help !
@King B
how am I living in the past?
by saying britney is the bigger star?
let see, her perfume sales are the biggest celeb perfume sales out there…sales are past the millions, are in the billion…
her tours have out sold beyonce,
her album sales after 2003 has outsold beyonce also…
the only reason beyonces albums sale looks bigger is because she has re release her album at least 2, 3 times…
britney has not..so i’m only counting the numbers without the re release..
@onyx :
Yes ! The same here ..
That’s why I keep saying that ppl who check for her are mostly her fans ! And that site is a BEYONCE fan site tbh and was made by a beyonce stan and a dc3 syan as well , and having 1092245689 posts in TGJ and being relevant on it doesnt mean that you are all that ” proof : kelly rowland” Not saying b can’t attract new fans everytime ! But she’s not all that on a WW popularity scale ! and accomplishments has nothing to do with popularity , there are another factors involved 😉 !!! that’s what I wanted to say !!
And I also wanted to add Britney’s name to all that to avoid ppl who will say that I am
A biased Rihanna FAN ! 😉
Beyonce fans don’t give credits to other Artists
(Example)
Madonna fans recognize the talent of Lady Gaga (What is wrong to us, that people think Gaga is the Queen of Pop, when Madge has named Queen since the 80’s)
Rihanna fans recognize the Talent of Beyonce, her voice, her performances, Everything,
(What is wrong to Rihanna’s Fans/Stan is that Beyonce Fans don’t want to recognize Rihanna’s talent or atleats that she’s Popular not even that)
This is just a little things that makes Some (i say Some) Beyonce Fans/Stans caught in problems with others Fan/Stan base.

story of my entire f***** life ..
I live for that comment .. So happy I could die !!
God take me now !!
@ Pop Royalty Well thank you !
Anyway yeah BEYONCE STANS hate to give any other artist recognition….ie @ S*** !
@This is what I hate about Britney stans. They insist on using decade-old receipts that mean s*** today
first of all I dont stan for anybody, Ive made that clear since I first started to comment on here….unless these singer are putting money in my pocket, I’m not gonna act a damn fool for them for free…
second..now explain to me how britney outselling beyonce since 2003, means nothing…?
of course as a beyonce stan, i know u have to bash other artist just to show how beyonce is better…but
last time i checked the circus tour was after 2004, blackout was after 2004, so on..so how is she not relevant?
@JAMIR21:
Lolz ! I really like messing around with @ s*** ” minus his delusional ass ” ! 😆
But you know me , I can fry his ass when I wants too !
Sometimes I feel like they think they will be less-loyal to BEYONCE if they gave other ppl their props !
But I still believe that there are a lot of BEYONCE sane fans in this world we are living in !!
@Pop Royalty (RUDE BOY)
So happy I could die !!
God take me now !!
You didn’t know how much i laughed.
@ Pop Royalty I agree !
@ RatedXXX I am starting to like you as a cyber friend since you are telling the truth about these STANS !
before i go, I have some d*** to be on tonight..i will say this..
yes beyonce is a great singer, yes beyonce is a great entertainer..but to say shes the best in the whole world is b*******…
to say shes a legend is b*******..to say shes king when she hasnt come up with anything on her own, is b*******..
everything beyonce has done, has been done before..i dont give a damn if she say she came up with it first..she is the biggest swagger jacker in the music industry..
beyonce is suppose to be a legend and yet she always stealing and swagger jacking somebody, and we suppose to worship the ground she walks on..F*** NO..
i dont give anybody who swagger jack other folk a pass, why should i give beyonce a pass?
u stans are the biggest haters there is..yall never want to give other folks their props, always bashing other people..
@ RatedXXX Amen to that !
LOL
I really don’t wanna sound like a Britney Stan !
But if I have learned a lesson in my life , it is :
Never underestimate Britney and her STANS ! I barely have it with them
Cuz I just can’t argue with them ” mostly cuz I like Britney ” !! they are so loyal to her and I really respect her stanbase in general ” minus their robotic delusion and living in a fairy world ”
Britney’s name is strong ! she can do nothing for the rest of her life and she will sell anything having ” BRITNEY” name on it !
Her legacy and contribution to pop music can not Be denied !
IT’s BRITNEY B**** !
ok , now I think I sounded like a Britney Stan …. ! I will try to stop doing that , but I just wanted to give her credits and that she deserve everything she’s having now ! but brit-brit , there’s always room for improvement … 😉
@ Pop Royalty Yeah because Britney Spears is already a STRONG name !
and before any of yall call me a HATER..ask the rihanna stans on here how many times I defend beyonce, when they come at beyonce…
but anyway..I have some moves to make..so goodnight @ rudeboy and @JAMIR21
@JAMIR21 I see u not calling people c**** anymore…thats good..cause i was gonna give ur young ass a spanking
The only artists that i will bow to they’re feet are Michael Jackson and Madonna, both Kings of Pop. Every male singer today wants to be like him, Justin Timberlake, Usher, Chris Brown and the lis goes on. Every female singer today wants to be like her, Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, kylie Minogue, Beyonce, Rihanna…..Now thats is an impact in Popular Culture.
Bows to the Kings.
Long Live The Kings of Pop!
@RATEDxxx :
Co-sign ! I always watch beyonce’s stuffs with a ” where did I first saw that ?!” attitude !!
You said it
Btw , Can somebody die twice ?!!!
Cuz you and @ONYX gave me everything I wanted tonight !! Why I am even living ?! 😆
GOD TAKE ME NOWWWWWWW !!!
@ONYX :
Lolz ! I thought I will never see someone have that logic and common sense ! But guess what , u still there 🙂 !
@MS LOVELY,
wow only 6 million in the US, it might be the biggest when it comes to music but it is not the only one. she has sold 10 million in the UK which is the secound biggest. so rihanna able to almost double her US sales in the UK which is smaller is impressive.
stay made and you can have several seats, you have yet to prove a dam thing.
@ RatedXXX Yeah I stopped that…and LOL !
@ONYX
so so so true, michael and madonna the first two kings. everyone looks up to them for guidance.
@RATEDxxx :
You always drag the navy with your hilarious truth Using BEYONCE 😥 , you defend her sometimes just like her STANS !! you are BAAD !

I won’t particularly bow ! But my words Really fail to express what I feel for having M & MJ in our lives !
I just can’t express it ! but with all due respect ! I love Madonna more ! I love her creativity and consistent reinvention ! Plus her lyrics are relatable all the time !
Both of them rock ! King and queen of pop 🙂
@Pop Royalty (RUDE BOY
is strange but we are always connected in some way.
@commanderofthedancefloor
i’m Glad you see that.
@ONYX :
And I’m really happy because of that !! 😉 !
I think we have the same taste in music ! and we kinda have the same standards 🙂 ” but my ass need to be educated about prince cuz I really missed his days , just to be honest 😉 ”
It is all great of course !!
* plays Madonna- frozen* ! I’m really in love with this masterpiece ! The beat and her vocals are everything ! And I’m glad she recognize/incorporate other cultures in her art ! I just love madonna , I can’t explain it ! but I really love her and her timeless art ! The main reason I love Rihanna is that I think she is the only one now who can be kinda like Madonna ! I can see Madonna’s influence on Rihanna the most ! And Rihanna wants to be the black Madonna , so ..

@Pop Royalty (RUDE BOY)
I agree with u about Rihanna.
Hahahahaha, sorry i laughed so hard about that Prince thing.
Well prince is one of these rare artists that no one understand but he is a genius in Music,
Beyonce introduced him to the UK Hall of Fame and say this (If he were British he would definitely be King by now) he is really talented.
If you post an article about how legendary MADONNA, MICHAEL JACKSON, ARETHA FRANKLIN, WHITNEY HOUSTON, PRINCE, MARIAH CAREY, TINA TURNER, JANET JACKSON are you get a lot of love from their fans saying “love the article my favourite album blah blah blah.” And people talk about the highlights of thier career, low points, and if so new album info
You post an article about Beyonce and you see how people DO NOT respect her and doubt her “legendary” status. People do not respond well to her hype, and people post countless examples of the smoke and mirrors that make her career. THIS ALONE PROVES that BeYAWNce is a joke. There is never even a consensus on her talent, her credibility, or her success. People bicker, fight, and argue about BIONCI and she is extremely polarizing. You don’t get that with a LEGEND. A legend is cemented in stone and you can’t argue with. All the divas are unsurmoutnable legends: JANET. MADONNA. MARIAH. WHITNEY. Legends. BeYAWNce is not a legend and just because her team emailed VH1 asking for a list with her name on the top DOES NOT mean anything. A LEGEND is something that is unheard of, the things they did were unimaginable. The songs they sang were timeless. The videos they did were memorable. NOTHING about BeYAWNce is her own, it’s all similar and reminiscent of someone else who came before her. She’s done nothing other females haven’t done. Wear a blonde weave and dance around on stage… handfuls of other female have done the same. Records R&B songs with rappers… it’s been done. Have one of the biggest songs in radio history… it’s been done by all the legends. One thing in particular that BeYAWNCe will never do is surpass the success of her debut. All the divas have done it TWICE, BeYAWNCe can’t do it once. JANET with Control and JJRN1814 (and then janet.) Madonna with Madonna and Like a Virgin (and then True Blue) MARIAH with Mariah Carey and Music Box (and then Daydream) and Whitney with Whitney Houston and Whitney (and then The Bodyguard). BeYAWNce hasn’t been able to surpass the success of Dangerously in Love which sold almost 10 million WW and had 4 hit singles, no flops. D-Day only had one hit “Irreplaceable” and all the others fizzled out on radio and the Hot 100 within weeks of their release. IT barely sold 7 million WW with more hype and prmotion than any album in 06 or 07. I Am… Sucha Farce had 8 or 9 singles and only 4 hits. And we don’t even start with 4lop. GIVE IT A REST, BeYAWNce is not a legend and she’s on thin ice. Her career is in trouble because all the shady things she been doing over the years have finally caught up with her. Watching Kelly Rowlands song smash must have killed her as all her songs release AFTER “Motivation” flopped and motivation is STILL on the charts. DAMN
@ Pop Royalty I`m not really a big fan of Madonna but I still like her !
I cant believe it has been nearly 7 yrs. since Rihanna`s debut !
not all of beyonce fan/stan hate rihanna …..I think the b**** is lazy now but i don’t hate her…
RIHANNA CAN BE A LOT BETTER THAN WHAT SHE IS..IMO
@JER REALLY ….YOU PEOPLE ARE TOO MUCH …..
ughhhh ^^^^^
Anyway…..
Rihanna- Janet 4 00s
Beyonce- Tina Turner 4 00s
Britney- Cher 4 00s
Gaga- Madonna 4 00s
Adele- Barbra Streisand 4 00s
I have nothing against Crazy In Love because I really LOVED it and once was my Anthem.. But I think Beautiful and Figther of Christina is the Best Song of that Decade.. Maybe due to some criteria Crazy in Love was named as the best! Anyways Congrats.. Beyonce!
I need more stuff for my room,,,my christmas list is going to be huge this year LOL !
@JER
DA HELL LMFAOOOOOOOOOO
@ONYX :
I think my ass need to go to uncle google and Stan for prince ..
Cuz I think he’s cool and his art is amazing .
I will do my best to know about him 😉 ! But thx for your info ! I think prince is kinda underrated in a way though ..
@JAMIR 21:
When you get older u will love her even more ! My 10 y. o love only Madonna and her fav song of hers is ” like a prayer ” ( don’t ask me how that happened ) it was a shock to me to know she even understand a f***** word of it , but she said : ” I dont understand anything at all , but I feel like she is talking about something really pure and beautiful and her voice is so good ” that’s was her words to describe LAP without knowing or understanding a damn word ” !! ! I tried to introduce other artists to her but she refused To like anyone beside Madonna ” she really didn’t like gaga , IDK why ” ! so I think there’s a hope u will like her sooner or later , if u appreciate art , u will appreciate Madonna in a way !! regardless what is your age , you will end up liking her cuz probably all of what our favs do now in 2011 and years to come was taken from madonna’s book Of epicness !!
@ Pop Royalty Hmmmm okay !
I need more Britney, Gaga, Beyonce, Rihanna, Nicki stuff !
I have enough Michael Jackson STUFF !!!
@JER :
Usually I don’t argue with my fellow navy cuz I love them !
But your comment is not 100% right ! I am agree with some points ! But do NOT DISCREDIT BEYONCE ! just don’t ! Barbra streisand and Stevie wonder , along with other Endless names of other icons recognized her talent ” I really don’t like calling them legends , legends for what ?! , it’s f***** music ppl ” !!
So I don’t think she is a normal artist , she’s exceptional in a way and always give her 100% for her fans ! But I Am agree she’s kinda overrated ! But anyway give the woman her props after all ! Don’t act like them BEYONCE delusional STANS ! show them that the navy is better !! 😉
It’s not beyonce’s fault to have some delusional STANS in her fanbase !!
@RICHANDBLACK :
I will take your comment as :
Rihanna need to improve her craft .. I’m agree !!
But you hate her regardless that too !!
C H E E R S !
@JAMIR21 :
Rihanna : our modern day black Madonna !
BEYONCE : our modern day Tina turner !
CIARA : our modern day Janet !
Whitney and mariah carey are both RARE ! I don’t find anyone who’s like them !
@ pop royalty oh okay……
Actually if you had paid atten, you would have realized that i was saying that Beyonce was extremely popular from “03-08”, she was popular before that and she still is of course. But that was when she was popular while being out on her own on a whole different level.
FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @HONEY_DIP11 I FOLLOW BACK!
FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @HONEY_DIP11 I FOLLOW BACK!
I DONT LIKE THESE VH1 POLLS. beyonce SAMPLED this song from someone else plus there were MAD CLASSICS in the 2000’s Crazy In love is not to best song of that generation. they are just ass kissing her NO MA’AM i love u Beyonce but this is why i feel ur OVERRATED. if sum1 else sang crazy in love nobody would give a f*** but cuz its YOU. its overhyped. Beyonce u are talented but ur overhyped.
Yessssssss MALIBU BARBIE IS BACK LOL
Same S*** Different Day!! Anyway Beyonce Is The Best Entertainer World Wide Point Blank Period and She’s Respected More.Some Of You Punkass Non Mother F***** Factors Suck Ass and M***** Nuts.With yall shady ass.Some of you shits pretend to like Beyonce.But everytime you come here you have negative s*** to say about her.Trying to keep your dirty ass hands clean.But you are see through.So take your gameface off.Jealous Asswipes Have A Damn Seat.Beyonce Is The Baddest B**** In The Game.Now Deal
Go Bey! She will ALWAYS be a force to be reckoned with!
Anyway………… Sam need to keep these viruses off of this site. >>> better known as some of these trashy posters.
That’s cooI and all but i AM NOT F****** RIHANNA NAVY OMG HAIL NAW. If i did stan for anyone it would prob be Janet or Madonna. I call BS if i see it. I don’t le tthese divas get away with anything “stop singing my part now babyyy”
Well, I am super late in here today but as I expected it just turned into a stan war and of course the Bey stans are in heavy effect to defend their girl. Why am I not surprised. *rolls eyes*
I won’t necessarily agree with the list, I actually wuold have given the title to Usher for ‘Yeah’. I love Bey and I am happy that she topped the list,, ‘Crazy In Love’ was my s*** but I definitely think that ‘Yeah’ was a bigger record! I can’t believe it wasn’t even in the top ten. I also think ‘Umbrella’ should have been in the top ten (yeah I may not like the singer but that was a huge record) and ‘Empire State of Mind’ shouldn’t be top ten IMO. *shrugs*
For the most part I think all of these songs were definitely huge records that deserved to be on the list but the order is so random. Certain songs definitely deserve to be higher and the songs in the top 20 just seem to be the more recent songs. I don’t see how ‘Poker Face’ made top three, maybe top 20 but top three was a serious reach. I guess since she blew up over the past couple of years they felt the need to put her in the top 3. I just think that’s because of her popularity right now. I personally ‘Just Dance’ was a bigger hit than ‘Poker Face’ but whatever.
I’m happy that my boy made the list and I love that Aaliyah is on here as well but overall I am not too phased. It’s just someone else’s opinion and it’s really impossible to name just one song the best song of an entire decade. There is just so many to choose from and it’s impossible to get everyone to agree! Plus I don’t think anyone really takes VH! too seriously anymore, especially after their list of the greatest artist of all time. SMH. But again, congrats to Bey for topping the list.

wow chris is a local artist 4 real
—————————————————————————
Now see, it’s always some delusional ass B**** that gotta say some stupid s*** out of her mouth! How in the f*** is Chris a ‘local’ artist when his music stays on the INTERNATIONAL charts?!?!?! WTF did that comment even have to do with this post?!?! Why the hell would you single out Chris claiming he is a ‘local’ artist when the list is about the 100 greatest songs in the last decade? WTF you trying to start s***?!
Answer me this, if Chris is a ‘local’ artist then why the hell did he open his FAME tour in Australia?!?! It takes 16 hours to get to Australia by flight so I hardly call that ‘local’?! Not to mention there aren’t to many black folks in Australia so clearly he doesn’t just appeal to a ‘urban’ demographic!
If Chris is a ‘local’ artist, why the hell did he just go Africa a month ago?!?! Is Africa not considered International cause it sure as hell ain’t America!! He also wen to Jamaica last summer where he performed at Sumfest with Usher AND he went to Brazil last summer as well! Last time I checked NONE of those places were in the states!
If Chris is a ‘local’ artist then why did he sell out a 20,000 arena in Toronto last month?!?! Is Canada apart of the States too?!?!
If Chris is a ‘local’ artists then why the hell did he get nominated for a Mobo Award this year for ‘Champion’ with Chipmunk?!?! Chris gets nominated for International awards and has also won them! Check his stats B****!
If Chris is a ‘local’ artist then why are his singles topping the charts overseas?!?!? ‘Yeah 3x’, ‘Beautiful People’ and ‘Champion’ were ALL in the top 5 on the UK charts this year! ‘Yeah 3x’ even reached No. 1 in several countries and went platinum in Australia! ‘Next 2 You’ is climbing thecharts in the UK as well!
Chris is NOT a local artist, he has ALWAYS International! Hell his first damn single ‘Run It’ topped the charts Internationally! ‘Forever’ was his biggest hit internatinally, followed by “With You’. Chris is a majority r&b artist but his music clearly appeal to markets outside of the urban world!! He is one of the few, besides maybe Usher who is r&b but still has success overseas! He has always had more success in the states but he is an AMERICAN and this is the market that he promotes himself in the most! Not to mention the States is the toughest market in the music Industry!
B**** go wash one of Bey’s lace fronts and keep it all the way the f*** cute! Don’t come for Breezy again! In fact, why don’t you go help Bey’s struggling singles on the charts!

I love Chris Brown and his music but he is a woman abuser and no matter how much i try to block it out it will always be there. If he was a normal person people would have been going ham and everybody and there Grandmother would have beat his ass but just because he is a celebrity its justified. Rihanna Im so happy for your success on loud because it shows everybody that Chris Brown is a little spec compared to you.
———————————————————————————–
Another delusional ass b****! I swear it’s like you dumb b****** like to bring up s*** from almost THREE DAMN YEARS AGO when NOTHING about this post had ANYTHING to do with that!!
First of all, What do you mean if he was ‘normal person’ people would have been going HAM?!?! They DID go ham!! Where the f*** were you 2 years ago? Living under a rock?!?! It was the BIGGEST story of 2009 and everyone and their mama was claiming his career was gonna be over!! Chris went through HELL and back over the past 2 years and still to this DAY gets ridiculed by the media CONSTANTLY over ever move he makes and B****** like YOU who can’t let go of HIS past like he owes you something!
Second of all, Chris got into a FIGHT 2 years ago when he was a f****** teenager!!! It was a heated arguement that turned physical on BOTH parts! He did NOT have a history of abuse! An abuser is a person who has a history of violence and repeats that offense over and over again! He has had like a dozen girlfriends since Rihanna, and before and NO ONE has accused him of being violent! He is NOT an abuser!
Rihanna herself even said she was ‘glad’ it happened so she could use it as a ‘learning experience’ (Watch her 20/20 interview, she said she was GLAD it happened) and it made her a ‘stronger person’. So WTF do you mean you can’t forgive someone when the own damn victim has CLEARLY forgiven him (she follows him on twitter) and moved on!! B**** get over yourself!!
Chris went through the legal system, PLEAD Guilty (was NOT convicted) to a FELONY and was given his punishment by the Judge! The JUDGE is the one who sentenced him to community service and DV classes he didn’t get to choose his punichement! He had no prior record of ANYTHING so his punishement was fit! Most FIRST TIME OFFENDERS NEVER get jail time! The only reason why his case was such a big deal was because of who the victim was and how the media blew it up and decided to make them the poster children of DV! In the state of Cali he got the typical sentence for a FIRST TIME OFFENDER! He did NOT get away with ANYTHING!
So WTF do you mean he was ‘justified’?!?! Who ever said what he did was right?!?! NO ONE! Chris WAS punished for his crime, served his sentence and he is where he is right now because he WORKED his ASS off for the past 2 years to get his life back together and he had fans that never left his side through it all! He never gave up and didn’t let the BS get to him!
There are other men in the industry who have done what Chris did and WORSE but haven’t been under the same amout of scrutiny that Chris has! Sean Penn (beat Madonna’s ass back in the 80’s) Charlie Sheen (held a nife to his wife throat) Wesley Snipes (alledgely hit Halle Berry now she is partially deaf in 1 year), Nicolas Cage, Mark Walhberg, etc. are all successful hollywood men who have had DV cases and are still successful! So why can’t CB continue to have success?
Hell Rihanna’s own damn mentor Joe Camel aka Mr. Beyonce STABBED a man 13 years ago and people act like it never happened! He actually used a WEAPON and only got probation! Jay Z was in his damn thirties when he did this, he was all the way grown and still acting like a thug! Now he is married to Beyonce, chilling with Oprah and meeting the President like he is a f****** God! Not to mention he was a former drug dealer!!! If Joe Camel is allowed back into the industry with open arms like nothing happend then why the hell can’t Chris after all he has been through?!
Chris was a teenager when he messed up! He is still young and should be allowed to grown and learn from his mistakes just like everyone else! So kill it with that ‘he got away with it’ b******* and stop acting like he owes you something cause he doens’t owe you or anyone else s***!!
Beyonce south africa loves you keep on slaying
Aaliyah should have gotten higher. That is all.
Go Beyonce! 🙂

NOW TO THOSE WHO SAY BRITNEY IS BIGGER
lol u guys are so stuck in the past its funny, b4 i even dig into facts imma say right now Beyonce, Gaga, Rihanna are more popular than Britney im not sure about Katy Perry but probably now lets dig into facts to prove Beyonce > Britney in terms of popularity since 2003
-1st Beyonce’s surpassed her in radio airplay
-Beyonce has more top 5, more top 10 and more top 40 hits
-the official UK charts company announced this year both have sold 6 million records, now Brit has twice the amount of albums Bey has
-I live in Ireland, standard Beyonce ticket for I am tour cost more than Britneys. 70+ > 50+
-now i know yall wont try fade Forbes cus Britney was no1 on it in 2001, Beyonce has been ranking higher than her since Britney made her comeback in 2007
-during circus vs IASF era Bey had 4 top ten hits in UK Bey had 4. in fact radar and sweet dreams were released the same month. radar dint even reach top 20. neither song had promo
-both have been on xfactor, ratings were higher when Bey was on and Bey’s song went to number 1 Britney’s peaked at no3
-this era they both have 1 top 10 in UK, bey has 2 top 20 , brit has 1, 2nd single dint reach top 20
-Brit has never had a no 1 album in UK, Bey has 2 even with less albums
2011:
– How the hell did Britney and Rihanna open an award show yet ratings peaked during Beyonce’s performance
-shall we talk about “Britney’s tribute” that bacame Beyonce show. she effin introduced Beyonce
end of part 1…. i’ll be back!!!!
Okay but Britney has like 3 or 4 top ten hits now and like what two #1s Beyonce has none it works both ways. Why do certain stans feel the desire to post every statistic known to mankind. Other artists still have stats that will sway things in their direction as well. Certain stans are way to thirsty on here. Just when i was starting to believe that Beyonce had a few stans with common sense. That just may be going out the window. Beyonce also isn’t as popular as she was. In terms of popularity Rihanna >>>>>>> now. Sales or not Britney has more impact. Her perfume sales are higher, her record sales are higher. Her tour sales are higher. It’s funny how folks use certain info when it benefits their statement. But all is well. Billboard also named Britney the best selling artist of the dec. In “07”, Britney was not Britney. Britney doesn’t promote as much as Beyonce either. Britney makes millions just sitting on her a**, Beyonce has to work 10x as harder. I’d be making alot of money to if i had splattered my name on tons of products. But hey it’s money. So cool. Britney doesn’t go full out like Beyonce does. With Beyonce everything is nonstop. Britney does something for a little sec. and then she’s done. Album sales > Beyonce has sold about 27 million albums. as a solo artist.
Moving along that wasn’t Britney’s fault that Billboard arranged the show that way. That was tacky on their behalf. That had nothing to do with Britney.
OMG Another stupid stan war???????
Beyonce stans please stop acting like she is the biggest ever cos you´ve been slayed too many times in that department
The rest can´t say much either. I mean, Britney, Rihanna, etc have little talent.
Seriously people was yesterday talking about the list (pointless list) and again it became in a stan war based on numbers. The list was supposed to be about BEST SONGS, meaning quality, good songs, not biggest hits on radio or sales. I´m ok with CIL being #1, but it is obviously subjective. But there are lots of songs in that list that are not even good at all, while there are amazing songs in the decade (not a great decade for music in general to me) that are not there. They tried to make a list of good songs and failed big time, it seems like a popularity list
im not here for ill-advised opinions if u gonna come at me come with your facts. dont tell me blah blah is more popular than Beyonce. go hard or go home. i dont want excuses either, if u are a viable artist and u sell magazines and products , u’ll get the endorsements, u cant slap ur name on any products cus u are not famous. i never said Brit has no impact but Beyonce has sold more than her between 2003 and now compare album. Britney has wasy more perfumes and they’ve been out longer . Bey’s 1st was in 2010 and it went to number in both sides and was named best selling celebrity perfume this year. yeah record sales that was B4 Bey went solo
Britney (03) sold less than DIL (03)
Blackout (07) sold less than Bday (06)
circus (08) sold less than IASF (08)
FF (11) currently selling less than 4 (11)
stop living in the past ! if Britney is so big why do Beyonce’s standard tickets cost more than hers in UK and Ireland?
besides sales , even in terms of popularity Beyonce is ranking higher than Britney on Forbes’ list, why do u keep ignoring that? when Britney was at her peak she was number 1 on that list back in 2001.
Moving along that wasn’t Britney’s fault that Billboard arranged the show that way. That was tacky on their behalf. That had nothing to do with Britney.
—————————————————————————————-
im not talking about Billboard not VMA, britney and rihanna whoa re supposedly bigger opened the show yet ratings peaked when Beyonce performed.
Beyonce has no hit on billboard this era but nothing else ahs changed, she’s still selling out shows , making history , getting mad media coverage, setting records, ratings peak etc this is not like Christina’s bionic or Mariah’s glitter
Britbots u really need to go look at her recent statistics post-breakdown sorry but she’s not that big anymore, UK media barely even covers her unless she’s here
@RATEDXXX
rihanna is a bigger star in the u.k market and the japan market..thats a known fact…
WTH? has rihanna even been to Japan? lmao her last tour dint stop there neither will Loud tour. known fact? receipts??
u say u’re not living in the past, yet u bringin up overall perfume sales were weree u when tgj posted bey’s perfume was no1 selller in UK and US?
about brit selling more albums, that was b4 03 not after go check the figures
whether brit promotes or not is her problem
as for tours, wel seein as ppl were walkin out im sure they regret buyin those tix i’l doubt this one will gross as much
@BEY’knight :
Don’t lie !!
BRITNEY >>> RIHANNA >>> BEYONCÉ ” popularity wise”
I won’t be posting any damn thing to prove my point , it is clearly proven right … this is the f*****’ truth !
LMAO AT THE JUNKIE HATERS. Bey haters are garbage. U hate so much your nothing but a recycle bin because BEYONCE throws that s*** away and keeps it moving. While yall ass still broke and dusty and only know in your neighborhoods Bey is going around the world and back. KISS HER BEAUTIFUL ASS CUS SHE DONT CARE AND NEITHER DO HER FANS OR STANS
FF (11) currently selling less than 4 (11)
How many hits does Britney have vs Beyonce in the US this go round though? Bey has none.
You just don’t wanna add Brits”01″ sales because they slaughter Beyonce’s. If you want people to stop looking at past stats then stop bringing up Beyonce past stats. Bey ain’t where she was then her dayum self. So get over it.
BRITNEY >>> RIHANNA >>> BEYONCÉ ” popularity wise” I kinda have to agree. Britney has that popularity factor if nothing else.
Wether or not if you doubt people will buy that many tix is your take on things. But Britney has outpaced Beyonce as far as touring is concerned.
Lol nice this isn’t Mariah’s “Glitter”, or Christina’s “Bionic”, lol and this is also not Beyonce’s “21”. Hahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Atleast Britney has an array of hits. Where are Beyonce’s. They ran off the charts lol. “Glitter” was a soundtrack though.
Overall Britney’s first album trumps anything that Beyonce has ever done. Even if Beyonce had an album come out then it still would’nt have sold Britney did. Beyonce made herself overexposed, which is why she was everywhere. It goes back to her having to work much harder for minimal success. Beyonce “Circus” almost went double plat, without nearly as much effort. Beyonce was more successful singlewise because she received more airplay. No brainer.
Getting mad media coverage? Only because she is talking about her preg. Making history? Lol……. Keep playing…. On on final note Beyonce ain’t as big either. Gaga >>> Rihanna have eclipsed her………….. Next………….
Isn’t it funny how certain stans like to dismiss everyone else’s success to make their favorite look big. Example Rihanna is only a singles artist. That is some what true, however alot of stans are just saying that because Beyonce is lacking hit singles this era, or how about this one well Beyonce could afford a flop. Umm no she cannot, not lil miss “King B”. Lol. Now they wanna say oh she was focusing on the quality of the music. Thats the same thing she said with “IASF”. It just so happens that that album had hits. The cop out for her lack of hits is that she wasn’t worrying about hits rather the music. GTFOH…… Her singles didn’t chart well and thats that.
@JohnVidal
WAT R U TALKING ABOUT THE REASON THAT THE PUSSYCAT DOLLS ARE THERE IS B/C THAT SONG WAS #1 ON THE BILLBOARD AND MADE THEM FAMOUS. I BELIEVE THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE LANDED IN THE TOP 20
Beyonce’s status can’t be compared …I am agree with everyone here..who are favouring beyonce..
Destiny Child was also a big hit..
Even Britney should have more songs in this list
But I think this list lack Eminem’s songs c’mon everyone knows that eminem has a great number of hits this decade & I know everyone agree with me..he is considered as artist of decade
One thing for sure that..there is very mix variety of rock artists in this list..
I think Only Green day has 2 songs in this list ..otherwise other rock legends has only 1..!
Bit disappointed that they didn’t include Muse!
And all Lady Gaga Haters…hello
U should all check ..Poker face deserve to be in top 3 ..it was one of the best single of this decade
Carrie Underwood..no surprise that she has more than 1 single
Umbrella should deserve a spot in top 10 ..!
Otherwise this whole list is good!!xo
Beyonce is a God. share the love for V V Brown by checking out her mixtape at http://stupiddope.com/2011/10/01/stream-vv-brown-–-the-playground-mixtape/
