The slayage when will Artpop?
BAM!!! Need she say more???
RIP Lady Gaga (2008-2013)
😆
YASSS QUEEN OF MUSIC
NOTHING MORE TO SAY
BEYHIVE
Woooooooow! That’s AMAZING
Eyyaaaaaaaaaaaas!
Gaga, Lana, Nicki, Rihanna, Ciara…who?
Kii she finna go platinum by the end of the week.
Removes wig slowly and bows tf down.
And JT, Adele and Taylor Swift DID NOT have to make 17 music videos, because they dont need videos to sell their music
Let me QUOTE ADELE,
” I make music for the EARS “
She’s basically gave 17 music videos away free to get this..
No beyonce fan can really say anything against other artists sales..because no other artist has given away 17 music videos…
Take for example.. Taylor swift and red.. if you got 16 music videos free on that.. Taylor swift would have nearly top 2 million in the opening week in the states, rather then 1.2 million.
Congratulations Beyonce. You success have prove that you are in the same level of Mariah, Madonna, MJ, Aretha and Whitney.
The rest can sit their lame asses down and bow. 😀
THE PEOPLE CANNOT TAKE!!! #BEYSLAYS #BOWDOWN
And JT, Adele and Taylor did not drop their album WITHOUT a lead single, to ITunes alone or on a Friday.
Motherfucking slayage.
ARTPOP is struggling to reach gold in USA….
lol
OMG
My jaw dropped like… I can’t even say. OMG
Beyonce just killed it
NUMBERS DONT LIE
Lets do the maths
828, 773
x 15.99 (usd) = 13,252,080
In words for those of you who are slow
$13 million two hundread and fifty two thousand and 80 usd (us dollars)
In GBP (Great british pounds)
£8,180296.46
Just under 8million 200 thousand pounds.
NUMBERS DONT LIE
BOW DOWN
im impressed people should start buying shares into “BEYONCE’ Thats a turn over…cost
promotion $0
production …max ……$500, 000
Nope, never happening
She can BUY the Grammys, but can’t BUY 200 MILLION ALBUM SALES

I ACTUALLY CAN’T…. LORD, MY POOR GAGA. BEYONCE HIT HER WITH A ‘THIS IS HOW YOU DO ARTPOP’……WHAT KIND OF 10YEAR ANNIVERSARY SLAY.
THIS IS HOW ARTPOP WAS SUPPOSED TO TURN OUT.
Let’s celebrate this victory and not trash the stans of the flopping artists like the Ci-Squand, Starz and the Monsters. This is about celebrating a music milestone.
OMG SIS SLAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU. STOP USING THE F****** VIDEO EXCUSE, SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DONE REMEMBER? PEOPLE WHO ARE DONE DON’T MAKE THE INTERNET EXPLODE AFTER 16 YEARS.
MusicStan( Beyocne Ciara Rihanna Kelly Rowland Janet etc)

Before I comment on the post, I just want to get this off my damn chest! I am soooo sick and tired of the ignorant stan with these stan wars! Obviously yall don’t realize that these women ( Beyoncé, Rihanna, Ciara and Kelly Rowland and I added the other two cause yall talk trash about them too) are very different artists and have very different and uniqueness about them that makes them stand out from one another!! While yall on here trying to tear them down they uplift ( except Rihanna vs. Ciara even though Ciara stay positive and Rihanna sometime be shady towards her, which I wish they can squashed it and just influence positivity in Black Female Power got to work on that) each other!!! These women are living their dreams, Make our culture look beautiful, and accepted to other cultures that look past us for magazine covers, and beauty! I commend all of them on their achievements this year! Rihanna on have the most number one singles on billboard, Kelly on x-factor, Ciara on have a hot summer smash with Body party and getting engaged, and Beyoncé for her fifth studio album being number less than 3 hours!!!! I am an African American male and I love to see African American women in the music industry do positive things cause for many years females were look as not successful artists but more like s** objects! Yes Rihanna, Beyoncé, Ciara , and Kelly Rowland sing about their sexuality but so did Janet, SWV, Mary J Blige, Mariah Carey, TLC, Aaliyah, and etc. doesn’t make them a h** or anything they just playing the game like the fellas do ( R.Kelly, Trey Songz, Chris Brown)!!! It is annoying to see these stan wars on these blogs site! My motha always said if you not checking for someone then do not give him or her any attention! Now back to the post congrats to Beyonce on her amazing album!!!
Wow this is how you SLAY………
@Truth b**** shut up and seethe. Until you can provide receipts for any of that wallow in your pressed anxiety that Beyoncé OFFICIALLY snatched and scalped for the GAWDS.
Gaga who?
QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!!!!! AND NOW U WILL SEE THE $50 MILLION PEPSI CONTRACT COME INTO PLAY!!!!!!
And this is why she is the motherfucking Queen honey. HBIC
Yasss Sam you better keep these Beyonce post coming… YASS THE HATERS ARE MAD LOL
Her highness has return to seek revenge on all those who says she was finished. This will be her biggest era yet….you ready **in my Bey voice**
*Bows Down*
Suck it up haters.
When can I get my physical copies? I need to buy Christmas gifts-EVERYONE will have this cd-I am buying 10! hahahaha
LOOOOOOOL
I LOVE YOU SAM!!! SO MESSY HUNTY!! KIIIIIIIIIIII
SLAY MRS. CARTER
THE HIVE IS ****FLAWLESS CHILE 😉
“She won’t even do 100k first week” *sips tea and chuckles to myself while blasting flawless*
I expected this from Artflop not Slayonce oh honey how the tables have turned.
Obviously, some of y’all missed the point of Beyonce’s songs. Don’t know why you need to come for other pop divas and create competition instead of congratulating Bey. As she said, “It’s the soul that needs the surgery,” with some of y’all.

AND YOU WILL DEAL!!!!!!!
Poor Gaga, she must feel so foolish and hopeless.
What does it mean to be a woman, especially a woman of color, in America in the year 2013? We’re writing about that difficult, important, and rewarding question in myriad articles, discussing it across a multitude of social platforms, and seeing it debated in political forums both mainstream and microcosmic. It seems at best silly and at worst impossible for an album of pop music to attempt to parse out the answers to these questions, but that’s exactly the length of Beyoncé’s ambitious reach with her complicated, fascinating self-titled surprise album. That Beyoncé even begins to manage to answer that question is impressive. That the multimedia excursion does so with deft intelligence and memorable tunes means that Beyoncé should carve out a place among pop’s most important moments.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
SINGS!
THIS MY S*** BOW DOWN B******!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND THE HIVE WINS. WE TOLD YOU THIS THOUGH!
WHEN WILL YOUR FAVES??????????
HUH????????????????????????????????????????????
I sold 22 million records….just saying.
I bet reality is finally dawning in on Gaga, how does she let herself get outsold by Bangerz.
Wrapped in red is getting more buzz than Do what you want music video.
I CANTTTTTT AT FOSSIL RELEASINGGG ITS ALBUM TO ITUNES THE ONE MEDIUM WHERE IT KNOWS IT CAN GET AWAY WITH BUYING ITS OWN ALBUMSS!!!!!!!

OMG the slayage. I simply can’t deal.
Driver roll up the partition pleaseeee yass Queen this is how its done !!!!
nice play.
What happened to she’s a has been?
So Gaga spends $25 million on promo, $3 million Artrave party in NY broadcasted by Vevo to millions, multiple twitter meltdowns and bragging about shipments only to have Bangerz sell more copies than you, even with multiple discounts.
Monsters have been defeated and nobody talks about ARTFLOP anymore.
That’s so nice for Beyonce to come and to break Monsters in pieces.
Embarrassing to be Gaga’s fan these days. 🙁
THE ALBUM IS NOT EVEN IN STORES YET…SHE WILL BE DOUBLE PLATINUM WW BEFORE THE YEAR IS OVER WITH???
WHEN WILL PRISM???
WHEN WILL ARTSHIT?
S****** JEANS????
VILEY ANYONE???
MAKE WAY FOR THE BIGGEST POP STAR IN THE WORLD!!
*THROWS EGGS AT ALL THE WASPS* KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
(Sits back and grabs popcorn while they seethe with excuses).
Gaga must feel hopeless and finished, she has not tweeted since this album dropped.
How do you dress up in Halloween costumes and get outsold by Bangerz, even when you’re more talented.
I woke up like dis…..bow down b******
So Gaga is more talented and gets outsold by Bangerz, even after taking her clothes off like Beyonce and stl Bangerz is selling more copies at full price….I can’t.
The album is fantastic she totally deserves it. You can tell she put a lot of thought into this album and the direction she wanted to take, and also listened. Congratulations Beyoncé.
@MUTT
SEETHE YOU PSYCHOTIC B****!!!
WHEN WILL STDanna?????????????????????????????
IT DOESNT MATTER HOW SHE RELEASED IT, IT WOULDN’T HAVE SOLD PERIOD, IF THE QUEEN WASN’T IN DEMAND HUN!!!

Yess @ Whut seething.
Spent the most money, had more meltdowns and has more talent but is being outsold by Bangerz, monsters need to explain this.
Thanks to Gay-Z for buying this s***** album.
The slayage speaks for itself. She has everyone stanning, celebs, her contemporaries and all.
A DECADE OF SLAY!
… AFTER SLAYING WITH ONE OF THE BIGGEST GIRL GROUPS OF ALL TIME!
WOW! I DON’T DO CAPS, BUT THIS CALLS FOR IT!
#KINGB4LIFE

DEATHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH @ MUTT COMING WITH EVERY EXCUSE IN THE BOOK BECAUSE AIDSANNA WILL NEVER, I REPEAT, NEVER SEE THOSE NUMBERS IN THE FIRST WEEK!
YOU KNOW WHO THE REAL LEGEND IS BXTCH!!!!!!!!! TELL HOEANNA TO TAKE NOTES!! MAYBE WHEN SHE GETS HER 14TH GENERIC NUMBER 1 HIT, SHE CAN FINALLY OUTSELL THE QUEENS’S DISCOGRAPHY!!!!!
Technically this isnt even first week sales… More like 3 days sale
Congrats, something told me she was going to come hard after 4 Beyoncé is very driven you know. She does not play. And she was slaying off her name alone from before so I knew something big was coming. Its like she was dangling a string to everyone making assumptions all year.
Took Beyonce 16 years to do big numbers took Gaga only 3 years let it sink in kii
AND I CANT AT HALF THE SONGS ON HIS ALBUM WITH BLATANTTTT ICONANA ISMS
WHERE DID THIS SENIOR CITIZEN GET THE TERM NANA FROM HMMMMMMM?????
WHY DOES MINE VIDEO LOOK AND SOUND LIKE TAKE CARE PT2!!!!!!!!
YESSSSSS LORDANA YOU BETTA INSPIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!
The BEYHIVE have the right to TALK s*** right now.. ALL year all u heard was BEYONCE WAS GOING TO FLOP..B**** SLAYED ALL OF THEM..FROM BRITNEY TO RIHANNA..WE KNOW WHO THE QUEEN IS.
Come on guys, if Beyoncé bought her s*** 4 would not be considered a ‘flop’ by you and she would have a Diamond album. You lose all sense of logic while hating. She is slaying, give her credit and move on.
Beyonce is such a KING!
…without the 99cents discounted sales.
Unlike Lady Gagarbage. 🙁
Gaga must be pissed getting crushed by someone who came out in the 90s and someone who is supposed to be a ‘singles artist’.
@Slay_Hive Mutt is obviously Troll Bynes and Mr.M chile
She’s also the only artist to have her first 5 albums go #1. She was tied with DMX with 4, A Keys with 3.
On the other news, ARTPOP remains in the discount rack !!!
La la la….we could..we could..belong together…ARTFLUNG.
@Kendall Lmao these h*** are too stupid to reason like the educated hive sis
WHAT TF IS A RIHANNA?????? KIIIIIIII
THE WORLD IS TO BUSY PICKING WIGS, WEAVES AND SPLIT ENDS FROM THE GROUND!!
HURRICANE BEYONCE JUST CAME THROUGH!
HOW MANY HITS WILL IT TAKE RIHJECT TO GET TO JUST SELL 300K FIRST WEEK?????
KIIIIII HOW MANY D**** WILL SHE HAVE TO SUCK TO GET HER ALBUM #1 IN 112 COUNTRIES?????????????????????????????
LEGENDONCE IS HERE AND ALL OF YOU DYKES WILL DEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*****flawless CHILE
QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!! SO HAPPY FOR HER RIGHT NOW IN TEARS. NO HASHTAGS NEEDED. SHE JUST LET IT SPEAK!
Gaga n her pack of donkeys must feel ashamed right now despite 25 million marketing promo while Beyonce…ZERO promo.
“gaga will sell 500K her first week cause she’s an album seller.” “Gaga will have the biggest single this year cause she’s bigger than Katy.” – Gaga stans 250K and no #1’s this year.
but no-one wanna see Adelle face tho! she’s deffo suited for the ears and not the eyes! for real!
@Slay Hive did you hear the news? Beyonce dropped the Drunk In Love vid on the same day as the Monster vid. Lmfao My queen is so shady and I LIVE
Post by ITunes:
BEYONCÉ Shatters iTunes Store Records With 828,773 Albums Sold in Just Three Days
Best First Week Album Sales & Number One in 104 Countries
CUPERTINO, California—December 16, 2013—Apple® today announced that BEYONCÉ has become the fastest selling album ever on the iTunes Store® worldwide with an unprecedented 828,773 albums sold in just its first three days. BEYONCÉ also broke the US first week album sales record with 617,213 sold and proved to be a global success going to number one in 104 countries.
The self-titled, BEYONCÉ, is the fifth solo studio album from Beyoncé, which was made available exclusively worldwide on the iTunes Store on December 13 by Parkwood Entertainment/Columbia Records. The self-titled set is the artist’s first visual album. BEYONCÉ is infused with 14 new songs and 17 visually stunning, provocative videos shot around the world from Houston to New York City to Paris, and Sydney to Rio de Janeiro, all before the album’s release. The album represents Beyoncé’s biggest sales week ever.

Queen bey she bout to sting stand back *Jay Z voice*
I mean Apple press release lol
25 million in promo vs No Promo besides the fans
260k – Artshit
618k Slayonce
Didn’t Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” sell more than this in the first week?
You can’t say it was because of the Amazon price and say she cheated because Beyonce just cheated also with dropping something with no warning.
Remember when Born this Say dropped, and Rihanna outsold that with LOUD in the end. Never underestimate RIHANNA, you might be slaying but Rihanna will be there slaying with you.
Not like Gaga who brags about 80K shipment to Canada but only sells 25K there and falls off, even with camping in Toronto.
EXUCUSE S*** B****?!!!!!!
EXCUSEEEEEEE????? BUM I KNOW A SELF PURCHASED ALBUM WHEN I SEE ONE HOG!!! KIIIIIIIII!!!!!!
BEAST LETS NAWT FORGET ITUNES IS THE SAME PLACE FLOPS LIKE TAMAR EASILLLY PURCHASED HERR OWN SHITTTTTT!!!!!!
YOU ARE THE SAME STANS THAT CANT GET THIS FOSSIL A NUMBER 1 SINGLE IF GIVEN 98 FREE SPOTS ON THE CHART YETTTTTTT THINK YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE NUMBERSSSS?????????
I CANTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!
😆 at Monsters for claiming ARTPOP is highest pre-order albums in iTunes History….
#TryAgainPlease
@Beyhiveminaj
That’s not amanda bynes. This is another pyschotic bxtch that used to frequent this website years ago.. I knew she would be back! All the s*** this b**** talked at the beginning of the “4” era! kiiiii
@Anon you know a week consists of 7 days right? Beyoncé has done this after three days.
LOL this person with a cat in their avi is having a mental break down.
Born This Way- a million seller album with an asterisk (99cents)
😆 😆 😆
Do people even remember that Artpop is still on the shelves? The way things are going it is like Artpop wasnt even released.
Honestly I think people would rather buy BangerZ than Artpop, which is what is happening.
I CANTTTTTT AT FOSSIL RELEASINGGG ITS ALBUM TO ITUNES THE ONE MEDIUM WHERE IT KNOWS IT CAN GET AWAY WITH BUYING ITS OWN ALBUMSS!!!!!!!
_______________________________________
well how dumb is comment??? People get stupid when it comes to Beyonce… the logic completely goes out the window. SMH
I love and appreciate the hard work Beyonce puts in because it’s showing! I’ve always been a fan of hers. It’s just kinda ridiculous to see some of you waste your time lashing out at other fans. Let them talk! S***….Beyonce is doing great. 🙂
Haters you lost. Beyoncé won. Deal.
@MUTT
DEATHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
BXTCH I’M NEED YOU TO PULL A RECEIPT OUT THAT DINGY WIG OF YOURS HUNTY!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 KIIIIIII
WHERE TF IS IT???????????????????????????????????
EXCUSES EXCUSES, BECAUSE AIDSANNA WILL NEVER ACHIEVE ANYTHING OUTSIDE THE GENERIC 100 KIIII
DEATH @ YOU TALKING ABOUT A CHART.. YOU ARE THE SAME USELESS BXTCHES THAT CANT PURCHASE SINGLES AND GET A SINGLE TO #1 ON CHARTS
BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT ARE M.I.A WHEN THE ALBUM DROPS IN STORES????
WHEN WILL HOEANNA OUTSELL BEY’S DISCOGRAPHY IN AMERICA, ALONE????????????????
W
Artrave Ball tour has got Banners all over ticket master websites and yet non of the dates are sold out. Even the VIP package is still available, I can’t.
So Bangerz tour will sell out more dates than Artrave Ball, even when Artrave ball had got banners all over ticket master websites….I cannot.
Nobody cares about Artpop since Thursday…. 🙁
How can accuse someone of making excuses when they are the ones talking facts and you just have a theory with no proof lol.
TO INNONCENT BYSTANDERS NEVAH UNDERSTIMATE THE GUILE OF A HARDENED CRIMINAL!!!!
WE DIDN’T FIGURE SHE WOULD GO TO THESE LENGTHS DEAR INNOCENTS BUT SHE DID!!!!!
PURCHASING 600K OF YOUR OWN ALBUM IS A NEW LOW BUT HE WENT THERE PPL….SIGHHHHHH..IT WENT THERE
The way Lovebird is going in on Gaga….LMAO.
Drunk in loooooooooooooooooooooooooovvvvvvveeeeeeeee. I can get over that song.
And that picture is everything.
Congrats my fav songs on the album are rocket, no angel and mine.
“PURCHASING 600K OF YOUR OWN ALBUM IS A NEW LOW BUT HE WENT THERE PPL….SIGHHHHHH..IT WENT THERE”

Beyonce ZERO promo….
ARTPOP 25 million promo….
😀
@Slay Hive notice how he is saying the same s*** as Amanda bynes- their levels of delusion and stupidity both hit 20 on a scale of 1-10. I’m sure they are the same person
people already gave credit 25 post ago on TGJ when her album first dropped!! any way its no use talking to these stans on this site tbh this only blog site that keeps talking about beyonce constantly while Huffington post and daily mail only posted when her album dropped ans then MOVED ON!!
She did that. Enough said.
so she tops 104 countries and sold 800k , 600 in the states …just 200k in the rest …internationalpower#
people should calm down and wait for the second week sales , you were talking the same about jay z with MCHG and look now…
DOG QUESTION, WHEN HE SELLS 66k IN THE 2ND WEEK WILL YOU BE HEREEEEE?!!!!
@Slay Hive if beyonce was really the one purchasing her albums,wouldn’t she have hit 1 mill by now?
@MC well this is a blog that stans for beyonce if you don’t like it then YOU move on. TGJ run their blog however they want and it still gets people like you coming.
Not bad for a tour act. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
@MC This is SAM’S blog,he can post whatever the hell he wants. This is a season of celebration for every bey stan from sea to shining sea. Same is a beyonce Stan. If you don’t like it,leave and come back in the fall of 2014 when the hype of part 2 has cooled down as well
I wonder where honey child pissed, Rated X, Blue Ivy Carter Rodrieguez and all the other regular Beyonce haters have been lately? Pretty quiet. Lovebird is the only one who has the nerve to show up and give credit.
*Sam
Only because she made to where in order to download the song you want you had to buy the ebtire album.
And not people acting salty because the Hive is celebrating their favs success.
Beyonce ZERO promo….800k
ARTPOP 25 million promo….250k
😉
@ChristinaTheRealTalent *THROWS YOU LOTUS* No one is forced to but an album for $15 they do it because they want to now shut your jealous ass up.
How the hell can she buy her own albums? Haters will come up with anything. Congratulations to King Bey. She outsold her own husband :O now that’s power. Who run the world?
I have officially LEFT the navy. Welcome your newest member to The Hive
PSYCH!
Congrats to Mrs Carter. Well deserved. The album SHITS bad! Like I haven’t stopped listening/watching since Friday.

Congrats to my girl. #StandingOvation.

THE WINNING TEAM. WE’VE BEEN TELLING YOU BXTCHES THIS ALL YEAR THOUGH??

I’d rather you stick your tongue up my ass 😉
KIIIIII THE FURTHER GAG IS THE REASON HE RELEASED 2435675567 VIDEOS TO ACCOMPANY HIS SELF BOUGHT ALBUM OF UNAPOLOGETIC REJECTS IS BECAUSE IT KNOWS HE CANNOT SELL A SONG ON ITS GENERIC VOICE ALONE
IT KNOWS IT HAS TO HAVE A DRAMATIC P**** POP PER FRAME TO SELL A SONGGG!!!!!!!!!!
YETTTTTTT THE SHADEEEEEEE IS NONE OF THESE SONGS WILL COME CLOSE TO NUMBER 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKIIIIIIIIIIIII KIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
I’d rather you guys take a big greasy crap on my face than buying Beyonce’s overrated album.
@Slay hive it is mad because in one day,slayonce sold what it took unapologetic a week to sell #NoShade

XO WILL BE #1 AND WHEN IT DOES, I WANT YOU RIGHT BACK HERE, SO I CAN DRAG YOUR ASS DOWN THE PAVEMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have witnessed a lot of bandwagoners over the past few days. Giving props is one thing, but stanning over numbers is another. Y’all do theeeeee most #fakestans 😆
@BeyHive_Minaj
well the tired bxtch will be mad for a while. This is only the beginning of the slayage. Rihject was smart for not releasing an album last month!! she knew what the deal was chile!! The navy need to catch up! 🙂

1st week sales without even having a FULL WEEK selling & KILLED the digital world.
This is not about other artists this about a visual pt.1 album of superb artistry and a gamble paying off.
GENIUS move.
“Woke up, FLAWLESS”
PROUD OF HER FOR THIS!!
In all honesty I don’t love all the songs but majority of it I do and video. Super idea put together.
Wonder what Part. 2 will bring?? Hope Ghost is a full song on there
QUEEN BIG STOP YOU R KILLING DEM, STOP IT, lmao.
KILLING THEM QUEEN B. All the shits that people’s was wrecked talking about and her daughter. I really really am enjoying the slaying, the slaughtering. Beyonce is business, payback time.
CORRECTION
QUEEN B STOP YOU R KILLING DEM, STOP IT, lmao.
KILLING THEM QUEEN B. All the shits that people’s was wrec talking about her and her daughter. I really really am enjoying the slaying, the slaughtering. Beyonce is business, payback time.
Not hating or anything but why do people keep saying no promotion, Beyoncé had a groundbreaking world tour, she is on every Pepsi billboard worldwide, she had h&m commercials.That is more than enough promotion. Stop acting like she went into her house and was silent for 2 years. She’s been all over the place the whole year but congrats to her. Great numbers.
OMG WHUT is killing me, I cannot deal with all that shade.
BXTCH PLEASEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
YOU ARE HIVE FIRST! I SEE YOU STANNING CHILE!!! KIIIIIIIIII YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
YOU STILL HAVE THAT PARTITION VIDEO ON REPEAT??????? 🙂
The tour wasnt exactly groundbreaking, she had 19 half empty shows, that’s not groundbreaking.
Hmm dear Beyonce fans: congrats, this is being amazing.
But don´t let it get out of hand. Why are a few of you acting as if Lady gaga didn´t do these numbers before? Or real true greats? All of them have done it. Congrats but stop. Also, it´s natural she broke an itunes record like this one: the album is available ONLY on itunes, all of you can´t buy it any other way. If those big 600,000 copies had been sold at different retailers in a normal way then she probably wouldn´t be breaking this particular record.
Just defend your selves when needed and enjoy this fabulous moment. If anything, you have Rihanna or Katy Perry to shade on all fronts, commercially and talent wise.
Call me when she goes diamond in the US. Signed, Adele.
Slutt_Hive no b**** I’m actually watching a blank computer screen at work. Now shut the f*** up before I Monica Lewinsky on your citi trends gown 😉
@grump
She had no promo. She NEVER spoke about her album. She didn’t release a single to radio. She did no interviews. She didn’t have a release date for her album. She didn’t perform any of the songs on her tour!
NO PROMO> EFFORTLESS SLAYAGE!!!!!!!! DEALLLLLLLLL 🙂
@boy toy
Do you actually watch that stripper show partition video? Just the thought of a married woman with a child putting on a stripper show for the whole world to see rubs me off the wrong way.
@Johnvidal Gaga did it with discounts and heavy promo stfu.
@Lovebird Bruce Springsteen is a Touring king and he had more empty seats than beyonce. Its about what you make in the end that counts. Her Tour is about to be one of the most successful by a black artist period.
beyonce is out for blood there is no end to her wrath XO has been released on vevo it will be the main single like really beyonce? gives these h*** a break the slayage is strong even I can’t deal right i just can’t deal
@GRUMP do u even know what album promotion is? I swear Ri’s h***** done went to yall brains.
Noooooooooo not Citi trends gown
@D****
kiiiiiiiiiiii girl please. Beyonce is in your ear, on your computer screen, and in your thoughts!! She owns you! Welcome to the Hive, even though i know you’ll never admit it 😉
I don’t shop a cititrends, you have me confused with another one of your customers kiiiiiiiii
Lmfao @ johnvidal KEEPING Rih’s name on his fat ass fingertips. I haaaaaate to do this, but WHERE is “The Art Of Letting Go” on the charts? Please help me find it. I can’t seem to find it anywhere.
Dear @trollbird: how are you? Are you coping at all? 🙂
WOW! Great sales. Can’t wait to see next weeks tho
@Lovebird I thought the video was hot. The Cierror stans were dragging it though. 😆
Rih is number 1 on BB
YOOOOO…The fact that she just made $13 million in just THREE DAYS and only via iTunes is INSANELY ICONIC! Wow…these numbers will also go up once physical copies are released….sheesh! GONE HEAD MRS. CARTER!!!
The real question is why did the non talented Britney Jean sell more copies than Flop me back to retirement?
Why is Bangerz selling more copies than Artpop?
@Skank_Hive Kiii at “d****” b**** you would know all about that wouldn’t you??? 😉
She came for blood. Can’t wait for her to release the physical copies next week.
@Slay hive Mutt is a pressed soul. One of the 6539876234678889225 lessors destroyed by the queen. Idk why he is tripping tho. Does he want us to feel sorry for him? He ain’t the first and certainly won’t be the last
Johnvidal I’m fantastic, I went to target today, found Bangerz on the best sellers rack and Artpop on the discount rack, why is that?
“Do you actually watch that stripper show partition video?”
kiii The fact that you actually watched it though!!! You are the biggest Beyonce hater, yet I’m sure your desk top crashed and burned when Beyonce released her album! looool
BTW THIS WHAT YOU CALL A TRASHY STRIPPER! EEK!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehcVomMexkY

YASSS chile the one you used last night, was a chocolate MESS, afterwards! kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Rihanna, loved pour it up video, she has no example to set.
Partition and Yonce videos, just the thought of a MOTHER and WIFE putting on a stripper show for the world to see made me uncomfortable, especially since Blue is at an impressionable age.
@yolo
NO! Gaga DID these numbers at full price and huge numbers worldwide too. Let´s not. The discount made her break the million mark (1,1 million) but she sold 700,000 copies full price in the USA alone.
@the boy toy
It´s not our fault Rihanna and the likes are clearly inferior on all fronts. Occasionally, when they are at their best commercial moments, it can seem to some of you like they aren´t. But they are, they are inferior. It will show in the long run. I´ve seen this before. You shading Mariah Carey??? Why? Shading a single released in her 24th year of career? Really? Call me when Rihanna can do something like this! Not even now at her peak she´s able too. Mariah and true greats been there done that, multiple times.
THE 829 ARE HER WW tally. But, add the 617 and u get over 1.4 WW in a weekend. THAT IS VERY GOOD. SHE HAS OUSOLD BANGER, katy and artpop.
Whut is pressed lol.
@Rihiconna you would,wouldn’t you? She would flop like a fish out of water
Mariah could only sing…Jinggle bell..jingle bell..flopping all the way.
🙂
MUTT GOODBYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOOOOOL
WHO TF IS RIHJECT??????? WHO SINGS THOSE SONGS YOU NAMED??????
I I I….I CANT REMEMBER ANY OF THEM!!!! KIIIIIIIIIII
BEYONCE HAS SLAYED YOU BXTCHES LIVES AND YOU CAN’T DEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Wait, but
Born this way 6 million
LOUD 6.5 million
Deducting 400K amazon discounts
BTW 5.6 million
LOUD 6.5 million
Now I need an explanation of why Bangerz is slaying Artpop.
Whut hunny,take some pills. You need to calm down
All I Want Christmas Is…A Has-Been !!! 🙁
‘She has no example to set’
Arguably she does.
Anyway didn’t she say she wanted children one day?
I LOVE YOU LIKE XO
YOU LOVE ME LIKE XO
YOU KILL ME BOY XO
YOU LOVE ME LIKE XO!!!!!!!!!!
ALL THAT I SEE, GIVE ME EVERYTHING
LOVE ME LIGHTS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KIIII #LIFE
YA’LL ARE NOT READY FOR THIS SLAYAGE
DEATHHHHHH @ SYBIL SAYING SOMETHING NICE ABOUT BEYONCE
“THAT IS VERY GOOD”
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR PREDICTIONS????????????? BEYONCE PROVED YOU WRONG AGAIN, EH??? LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@JOHNVIDAL and Mariah couldn’t do it today. She wouldn’t even be able to sell out a world tour off of her legendary name. She couldn’t even do this in her PRIME! None of our faves could pull this off. I’m shading Mariah for the same reason you’re shading Rih. ALL of your posts mention Rih. Obsessed much? You know…kinda like how Mariah’s coo coo ass was obsessed with Eminem?? 😆
LOL @trollbird doesn´t get it!!!
Celine Dion is respected. Britney Spears isn´t. Celine Dion has sold almost double albums than Britney (and most of Britney´s were thanks to that t*** boom nobody respects), Celine Dion just released an Englisg album without even caring and disappearing for 6 years between albums and still did better worldwide than Britney (yes 70,000 in the USA and Britney 100,000, but Celine smashed first week in Canada and was #3 in the UK, just to give two examples, while Britney debuted … #30 in the UK? I can´t remember). And last but not least Celine is doing better in Vegas in her 10th year there than Britney in her first!!! LOL How the hell do you have the nerve to shade real legends your faves will never top? After what you are suffering this week??? Can´t you learn from this experience?
And I didn´t even go in with the talent…
About Gaga and Milye: LOL Miley is only doing slightly better than Gaga despite being at her best moment commercially and Gaga at her worst. That says it all. In fact, having one of the biggest easy hits of the year should make her sell way more, but she isn´t. Milye had all the attention this year, and still can´t make it. Without gimmicks, she´ll do 300,000 copies in total next time, like her previous albums.
Do you get it now @trollbird??? It´s hilarious seeing how you stan only for talentless girls. Sad thing is that they also get outshone commercially.
@JOHNVIDAL btw hows (ch)ArtFlop doing sis? You know…the album with the real music and vocals? How’s that tour selling? I saw her on all fours in a bikini crawling under R.Kelly in the DWYW video. Too bad all the desperate, attention seeking antics in the world couldn’t sell that disaster of an album. You should apologize to the Interscope employees who were laid off because of her floppage in the middle of the holiday season. 🙁
Get it girl congrats !
Johnvidal
I didn’t have time to read that novel, all I know is
CELINE 77K
BJ 100K
Bangerz selling more copies that Art pop
Katy selling more copies than Artpop
Britney has writing credits, Celine does not .
@the boy toy
Leave it! You can´t get it. It´s obvious.
Beyhive I need y’all help over here at Rollingstone…Haters are trynna come for Beyonce and saying she is lying…I’m not a Beyhive member but nobody is gonna falsely drag my Queen…
LOL AND SHE STILL DIDN’T BEAT TAYLOR SWIFT OR GAGA LOL #KEEPTRYINGGIRL
THE WORLD DIDN’T EVEN KNOW IF THERE WOULD BE AN ALBUM A WEEK AGO FROM TODAY, NOW IT’S OUTSELLING EVERYONE WHO HAD ALBUMS AND SINGLES OUT!
KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
I DON’T WANNA HEAR ANOTHER SOUL MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT A CHART OR A #1 SINGLE KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Who’s checking for Taylor Swift??? Grade school girls and deaf people. The name of the game is do what need be to make what needs to happen happen.
@trollbird
LOL Britney is not a songwriter. Neither is Celine. Stop it with your delusions. Now that you mention it, I´ve seen Celine credited as songwriter in a couple of songs. Does that make her one? NO. Britney was destroyed by my simple comparison. Now deal, like you have to deal with this Beyonce big moment.
@The boy toy lmao I love Mariah,but I had to laugh when eminem dragged her for filth on “the warning”
LOL
GAGS only sold 1.1. million due to her 99cent discount! She would have easily outsold gags and taylors #1’s IF she would have had a full week of sells!
this is only three days!
stop shading yourself hun!!
when will Poptarts finally go gold????? Gags is a mega star right?? she sold 1 milliion in a week right???? kiiiiii
@the truth who IS Taylor swift anyway? Some Hollywood s***?
LOL WATCH HOW FAST THIS SHYT DISAPPEARS AFTER CHRISTMAS LOL
@Beyhive_Minaj I love her too but she isn’t immune to a drag. Some of her lambs are annoying as f***. And yessss he dragged her through the trenches honey lol
Still couldn’t beat Gaga or Taylors first week numbers. LOL
@LOL but you said it would not even do 200 first week. We won’t take your word for anything.
SLORE YOU WILL NEVAH NAWT KNOW OF YOUR LORD!!!!!!!!!!
FOR EVERYTIME YOU SEE THE NAME MICHAEL JACKSON YOU WILL KNOW OF THE ICON SHARING HIS NUMBER 1 SINGLES KIIIIIII A LEGEND AND D AN ICONNN!!!! KIIIIIIIIIIIIII
HENCE WHY FOSSIL WENT ON TOUR TO AID IN THE EFFORT TO COP HIS OWN ALBUM THE SHAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
@Jose Three days. Three days.
“LOL WATCH HOW FAST THIS SHYT DISAPPEARS AFTER CHRISTMAS LOL”
Hun i’m not trying to hear what you’re saying. You were the one who said Beyonce would only sell 195k first week! remember???? kiiiiiiii
@Johnvidal no babes…what I DON’T get is why Miss BlahGa couldn’t outsell Katy and Miley. You were the MAIN ONE calling them basic and talentless. Didn’t you say BlahGa was an “album seller”? Well what happened sis? Why aren’t those albums selling? $25m down the drain. Her old gimmicky ass better “break” her other hip for some sympathy sales. 😆
By third week its going to drop. This s*** has no longevity. Most people that bought that on iTunes just wanted to see what the fuss was all about as that was the only outlet available.
The people who got sucked into iTunes won’t be buying the physical album.
@The boy toy Lmfaooooo her and nick cannon. “your gonna ruin my career you better get one” I had to laugh at that for weeks. Notice how she didn’t say anything since it dropped? Lol glad someone finally clocked her diva attitude
I’ve checked Celine’s credits all through her 3847294738 English and French albums and she has not a single song writing credit, don’t lie.
Whut is an embarrassment to the navy
“FOR EVERYTIME YOU SEE THE NAME MICHAEL JACKSON YOU WILL KNOW OF THE ICON SHARING HIS NUMBER 1 SINGLES KIIIIIII A LEGEND AND D AN ICONNN!!!! KIIIIIIIIIIIIII”
ULTIMATE DEATHHH @ YOU MENTIONING THE KING OF POP WITH HOEANNA..
MICHEAL EARNED HIS #1’S AND HIS ALBUM SELLS MATCH!!! KIII
HE DIDN’T RELEASE 6,0000 ALBUMS EVERY YEAR TO ACHIEVE THAT KIIIIIIIIIIII
SPEAKING OF THE QUEEN’S TOUR, ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE SAME TOUR THAT OUTSOLD RIH’S ON AVERAGE
87 DATES BEYONCE 145 MILL >>>> RIHJECT 89 STADIUM SHOWS 137 MILLL
POOR DAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I KNOW WHY YOU SEETHING MUTT!! KIII
Her music is not for the ears…it’s visual. This is going to flop because without the visuals its really boring.
Slay Hive,mutt is an insecure trick. Don’t bother with him anymore. I’m sure even rihanna would feel humiliated and ashamed knowing she has a psychopath like it stanning for her
Not it comparing King Michael to rihanna. Even rihanna would laugh at that. You can’t compare rihanna to the greatest entertainer of all time who has sold over a billion records worldwide.
Not everyone has the resources to pull this off but the one’s that do DON’T maximise in this way as it’s a huge risk, plus depends on talent levels also.
That’s the whole GREATNESS about this move from Beyonce, she had faith in it and now look at those numbers from just a FRIDAY release.
Her tour money is clearly going into the craft (while some turn to drugs). The art comes first and song wise I feel there’s even more to come.
GAME CHANGER! RESPECT!
Drunk in love slayyyss
What are you even talking about? All music videos are given away for free. Next time when trying to make a point, build a better case
4lop went to number 1 but it’s still struggling to scan 3mill after 3 years since its debut…despite the re-release, selling singles for 69cents, doing revel, and world tour for it its still not selling. This is 4lop 2. She relied heavily on “visuals”. When she takes her songs to the radio then what? No visuals there…without the “visuals” its a snooze fest.
Her best album. And I listen to it more without visuals. Well done chick!
Rih Rox don’t be so insecure. This isn’t about going to #1 or 4 anymore. Her NUMBERS are slaying. She will probably overtake unapologetic. Plus she hasn’t released hard copies in store.
Her “strategy” for the next will not work…. fool me once…..
Now they’re saying it won’t have longevity. But remember, Beyonce is always proving you wrong.
Tbh I don’t see the longevity in this album.
And let’s not pretend like she erased rihanna when the monster is still sitting pretty atop the charts Hun. No singles from this album will ever see #1 . Bookmark me.
RIHANNA FANS TALKING ABOUT AN ALBUM HAVING LONGEVITY?AHAHAHAH THIS JUST GETS BETTER!
Who cares if her single does not see #1. Beyonce is all about the ALBUM sales this time. She can give the Hot 100 to basic b****** who she tops with ease after 16 years.
MUPPET BETCHES THE LORD SHARES A RECORD WITH THE ONLY KING THIS INDUSTRY HAS EVER SEENNNNN!!!!!!!!!
SLOBS THESE ARE THE FACT!!!!!!!
BUT I SHALL DEPART FOR NOW AS THE STAGE HAS BEEN SET FOR THIS MASSIVE W2ND WEEK DECLINEEEEEE AND I WILL BE UNRELENTINGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!
Got this from another site. But true tea
“Like I said already, giving all at once, all the songs, music videos and everything was obviously great idea, since no other female artist did it before, but after hype and buzz is over, what then? There aren’t hit worthy songs on there. She basically started and finished the era already.”
The ghost of MJ is shaking his head at this blasphemy
Beyoncé you’ve owned all your haters this time round. They can’t call you a flop or attack you about “4closure” any more. Bey is now the biggest artist in the world, bow down!!! Your my second fav after Britney. Pretty Hurts, Grown Woman & Yoncé are my jams in that order!
I see a massive decline after this week is up. Cause some people will go buy the hard copy cd
@Navy Commander you can be as sceptical as you want we’ll just have to wait and see. She proved you guys totally wrong once she can do it again.
@Dem Lessors Britney Jean is awesome. It’s a shame though. I wanted her and beyonce to show these gurls how it’s done
The Navy are just embarassing themselves right now. Breaking out every excuse possible. Mess.
The meltdown from some of these people in the comments section on TBJ “That Beyonce Juice.net” oopps mean TGJ is tooo much.
Beyonce threw you ALL off and now all I see is reaching.
She did a very good move and she caters to a few genres on here. Not all songs get my life but appreciate the vision
What is this obsession with Rihanna? She didn’t even drop an album this year. She’s not bothered. This is the closest she’s come to the old DIL Bey. When you don’t like someone but they have you bumping their jams, that says a lot. I HATE Chris Brown but can’t deny he has bops. Again grats Bey and her Hive. . . . . .
I want to hear the excuses of ultrasound not having any pulse.
🙂
And Janet lets not forget Janet!!!!!!
***FLAWLESS
@Slay_Hive & @JohnVidal why you guys keep wanting to claw off Rih’s wig? Half the Hive act like she slapped your momma and walked away. . I mean, the real tea is her peers like Gaga etc who dropped albums should be who you drag and not ICON. I just want to know why can’t the Hive celebrate without bringing Rih into the equation? I just can’t with yall. . . . . . but if it makes Yonce’s success feel better for yall by dragging Rih. . have at it. .she’s not bothered.
“I woke up like this, I woke like this” 🙂
we all know if she had released a single and performed on every show, she wouldnt get any closer to these numbers with that album. She was very smart cuz she knew ppl would want to see what her album sounded like after 1 year of waiting for some new material.
LOVE ME LIGHTS OUT!!!!!
@yolo but I thought the tour was sold out? How come 19 shows were not? They used to claim rih did not sell out but only 4 shows were not.
SN: so beyTHIEFce put her Album on iTunes so she can buy it herself? Much like Tamar eh? It all makes sense now. Let’s see how this plays out.
Finally beyonce peaked,it’s been a long struggle but it happened. Sadly she will never reach diamond sales in usa, I don’t see this project getting there, it’s too late.
Beyonce just checked mated any female in the industry.
#No Cheesy/Corny Gimmicks
#No Promo
#No Awful teasers and month long campaigns
#No Performances
She shows a diverse range and visual art her best work to date. Every song is powerful. Although her fans where expecting a thumping dance number. She surprised everyone and created a mellow and strong set of songs. I am excited to see her work and nail every live performance. I will definitely be going to see her on tour in 2014.
The drake song and video is an anthem my instant fav.
Yesss,, finally Beyonce made an album with substance! LOL. Let’s thank Rihanna for the inspiritation shall we?!. She even went so far as using the same song title ‘drunk on (in) love.’ The similarities in the music videos is such a honor. Don’t worry,, we forgive you! But we have a surprise waiting for you in 2014…
.. .and for the record, next year, yes Rih will drop a singles and let them dominate the charts and then drop her album cause her singles are that strong to stand alone
Why isn’t the album on Amazon!??? No comment.
. .Beyonce promo’ed all year long so make no mistake. . .she built up the anticipation which was good marketing but superbowl, etc had people waiting for new music so this was a gimmick all in itself so don’t make the mistake of thinking she didn’t promo. . . . .
@Rih Rox did you miss the point? Shes still outgrossing Rihanna. Which makes her the winner.
@Enough Onika YASSSSS GOTDAMN GOTDAMN GOTDAMN!
@Rosie Ikr?. They should just give up already.
Rihanna where you hiding girl? *Crickets* LOL
LMAO @ the PRESSED HATERS HERE! I won’t even bother trying to reason with you.
Do or say what you want but QUEEN BEYONCE has broken records with this album! The numbers speak for themselves!
And let’s all remember this is ONLY FROM 3 DAYS!!! WHAT KINDA SLAYAGE???
#RESPECTTHAT #BOWDOWNB******
@Rosie . .Navy breaking out excuses for what? Trust me, from what I’ve seen most of the Navy was congratsing bey until some Hive felt they needed to pull Rih’s name and drag it. Why you guys do that–I will never understand, so we just respond in turn. . . . .why do you always mention Rih anyway? If she so irrelevant, then call out other more deserving popstars of the Hives vitriol. . . .
This’s getting out of control
828,773 worldwide in 72hrs?
#1 in 108 countries 4 days later?
Wtf is she made of
@OhYeah. . .she’s working. .what do you want her to do? Do a round of interviews calling out Yonce’s name like Kelly Rowland. . . .it will never happen. Keep waiting. . .Rih is working and relaxing. She’s fine.
I love this album because she made each track an experience with the visuals, now these figures are deserving and she will continue to Slay because she has created a perfect piece of artistry. No point comparing her to your favorite becuase she IS YOUR FAVORITES FAVORITE artist!
No fan base, Rihanna, Katy,Lady Gaga, Britney, should be upset, because they basically worked for their first week sales, they didn’t buy half of their own itunes. I know for a fact that she bought half of her albums off of itunes, to give the impression that she is selling off the charts, which is a marketing tool that Jayz uses. Originally Hitsdaily stated that her one day sales was around 200,000, than they change the amounts. Not one person will convince me that she didn’t buy some of her albums off itunes. If you look at all the comments on the mainstream blogs, most of them are negative. She bought her album sales like Jayz got company to buy 1 million albums because he regular sales bearly sold close to a a million, thanks to Justin Timberlake, Like I said Beyonce was going to put the hottest artist on her album to sale, Drake , Justing Timberlake, Miguel, she covered every genre, and she will get a couple of number one’s of the hot 100.
DAYYYYYYYYUM!!! You go Beyonce. No promo, just rumors and BOOM!!! 800,000 copies sold in 3 days. Sucks to be a Monster and sucks to be the artist collaborating with The Monster (talking bout Gaga and Rihanna). This is how you do it people. She is now officially on the level of MJ, Madonna and Janet. So Rihanna tied Michael Jackson…Big wow, she’ll ahve to do more than that to even be in the same sentence as the greats, even with 13 #1 singles, Beyonce still makes her look like an amature. No one can f*** with Beyonce, she the King of Pop!!!!
Nah Ri busy giving out relationship advice to depressed stans. The Navy meltdown is real.
But Artpop has already outsold Bangerz LOL
Now target stating that they won’t sell her album, because that can’t promote it with specials.
@Zania their loss not Beys.
A good week for Beyonce. The writer of this article mention “Adele” which her cd sold over 5 million records in the u.s alone. With a great start will Beyonce sell more than adele in united states?
YASSSSSS !!!
People could say w.e about the 17 videos. I still haven’t seen them yet
I am not a Beyoncé fan but I must say this, WHO’S THE QUEEN!! Enough said also I download this cd and it’s everything
@Zania you know for a fact? Receipts then.
Beyoncé slayed and shut down everyone. Certain people simply can’t take it.
@Zania
Funny how no one said s*** about Rihanna buying her own cd’s, fans on facebook & twitter. Even if this was so, big deal because they all have been doing this for years. Do you remember Drake made a video of himself & J. Cole buying up all J. Cole cd’s. Now the only one I believe don’t buy their own cd’s is Chris Brown because if he did his F.A.M.E. CD WOULD HAVE WENT PLATINUM BACK THEN AND NOW
SLAYYYYY B****.
@Zania, I’m sure Target is pissed about that, CUZ they know it is their lost and NOT Beyonce lost. Didn’t Beyonce ITune already SOLD more than 620,000 in US ALONE?, NO Target, Beyonce isn’t the one that is losing, she winning, CLEARLY.
oh you so pressed.
congratulate the woman and move on about your business.
@ZANIA, you just sour. Writing down BS.
She’s nr1 in more than 100 countries, only that kills that BS you wrote a few mins ago , that she buy.. her own music etc, you just stupid, jealous and sour.
VERY TRUE!!!!! 🙂
VERY TRUE. 🙂
LOL @ the meltdown from the defeated and slayed haters. Just accept the fact that not only have you LOST, but you’ve also been OWNED. All the hysterical and inane rants are just you trying to cover up how HUMILIATED you are because of it. You said Bey was over, yet she’s been the talk of the entertainment world for the past 3 days and counting…breaking sales records, getting showered with adoration from else, being heralded as a genius!
You mad? Upset? Seething? Got a headache? Stomach cramps? Ulcers? Diarrhea? Heh!
It’s clear what you have to do now: you’ve got to kill yourself! I mean, how can you possibly live with the shame and angst of being on the LOSING side of all this? That would be too much for me! Just go ahead and pop the bottle and go to sleep. It’s the only way to get away from all this earthy praise BEYONCE is getting! 😆
BwaHaha- Not that struggle of an excuse. Honey let it go and just let her use you! The real truth is that she changed the game on dat ass.
Thank U. These folks are delusional. SMH
Nobody cares about Taylor Swift videos….
The difference is, people care about beyonce videos… Maybe justin could… but nobody cares about Ms. Swift or Adele’s videos…
Now remember, Nicki Minaj is a rapper. hahahaha
So Beyonce’s album has managed to sell over 800k in 3 days on her brand alone. Just the name Beyonce! Adele went diamond in the US based alone on actual music praise. And basic band wagoners who felt guilty for sleeping on Adele in the first place. Lmfao I mean after listening to Beyonce’s amazingly underwhelming album I’ve only found 3 songs that Im kind of partial to. Songs which will soon be forgotten once the next hottest club banger is released. Which is literally every 15 minutes. This is a great example of for the kiddies!
Quantity over Quality
Damn!!!!
In just 3days…… #EnoughSaid
Jay Z bought 350,000 of those albums! LMAO I am sorry but the music on this album sucks.
Hands down….New comer here. read lots of post.
The Things you guys let come out your mouths. SMDH
She turn, and slayed. Now get over it, or make and album yourself, and watch it flop.
While these are impressive numbers for Beyonce, it’s amazing that she didn’t do more. People have called this album, “monumental”, “a masterpiece”, “epic”, etc. With such descriptions as these, Beyonce should have at least moved 1 million units. Sunday was the last day for her first week sales to get counted. Which is why she should have put the album out on Tuesday as opposed to Friday. By doing it on Friday, it only gave her a few days to work with. If she had released it on Tuesday, she would have easily sold 1 million units. Other than that, she still did pretty good.
but with those 19 unsold shows she is doing better than rihanna stadium tours
B****, The album was almost 20 bucks…IT WASNT FREE!!!!!
Hopefully it will sale well because the production budget is so expensive! 17 videos will cost 17 million (in average). Plus 14 songs produced cost abt 7 mil. It’s a lot
E yaaaaaaaaaaaaaas
That album is just horrible!!
She will fall fast + all the singles will FLOP
#DEAL #BYE
the salvation army is so pressed right now. What does rihanna becoming the face of a fashion house have anything to do with beyonce dominating the album charts right now? its obvious that the salvation army is threatened by their constant need to give their FALSE predictions of the outcome of this album. Beyonce continues to make fools out of all of you because at the end of the day she continues to change the game and outdue s***-hanna in every way.
DEAD @ the navy saying this album doesnt have longevity. according to the same pack of idiot b******, “4” didnt have longevity yet the tour for the album is outgrossing the diamonds tour. Your theories and predictions just keep getting shitted on by the queen. stay pressed. maybe if the salvation army would scrap their coins together and start buying albums they could brag like the hive.
I love Beyonce too but Rihanna is not “DEAD” as everyone seems to think.. Rihanna has the Number 1 song on Billboard’s Hot 100 right now.She has 13 no1’s the youngest artist ever with that many. Beyonce has 7 solo no 1’s. Give Rihanna her props too.
for free? she sould the album for 15 EUR… it’s not like she sold that for 8 EUR….
That’s good and all congrats Bey. But when will she ever sell 1 mill in one week though? She has the potential in the future I would say.
She sold over 1 million records world wide in under a week, 800k over the 1st weekend (3/4days) and is close to selling 1 million in just the US alone. So she didn’t only sell a milli in a week with no promo or lead single, she did it in under a week and only via iTunes.
