Creyk 17,008 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I always see Beyonce get so much praise and acclaim, which is good because she is a fine performer. However, I find it weird when people say she is a main pop girl. Her last hit was 5 years ago with Telephone,not even her own song and she was not the reason for the song's success. Her last album sold 5 million copies which is decent, but not earth-shattering and she also failed to get a hit from the album. So why is she considered a "legend" by some when she doesn't actually see outstanding success? What she is good at is touring, she has successful tours but so do Gaga, and when evaluating her many people don't take her tour grosses into consideration.So what's going on with that?

Phoenix 17,395 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 She is seen as this "Diva". She is very talented, some see her as the most talented alive singer, not imo. Because she can sing, dance and so on. Because of that surprise release etc. I think people were seeing Gaga as the main pop girl before her underperformance, and after that only other capable of that tittle were Rihanna and Beyonce (katy and taylor don't fit there imo cause it's not only about selling), and Rihanna was nowhere to be found since 2012 when it comes to releasing music, so Beyonce was there. 💎 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji 20,113 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Because everyone likes her but bitter pop stans that think their fave deserves her success. Seriously, let's stop this obsession with wanting to tear everyone down. This site stepped away from it for a while but now it's nearly everyday that we need a thread trying to tear someone down again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiona Apple 13,006 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 She is just a "diva" so she sells a lot of albums.But I agree she is not really one of the main pop girls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chump 967 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 5M is decent? How many female albums sold 5M since 2013? 2? 3? She's very successful in album sales, so it's pretty fair calling her a main pop girl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sizzily 14,543 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 There's just been a huge circle-jerk about her since before 2013 but when she released her self-titled, it got even bigger. Plus, she is pretty fierce. One Banned Boi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AIex 3,102 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 literally nobody pays attention to beyonce, they literally only like seeing her name on things. And I'm not even speaking from my own personal opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edonis 28,624 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Because she is critically acclaimed, has a large fanbase, and has had a strong impact on American pop culture. And she is talented (not the number one best singer ever in existence, but very very good). Also she's not very problematic to the GP generally. Plus I sometimes feel like casual pop/R&B fans love her so much because they think they're edgy that way? Its a lot of stuff really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GloZell Green 11,723 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 She's talented and great, but not the main pop girl. Her performances are epic and her music is very catchy/addictive. We all know who the main is is  Lady Gaga | Shakira Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen 30,266 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Her last hit was not 5 years ago. At least in the US, everyone knows Drunk in Love, Partition, and Feeling Myself. Additionally Flawless and 7/11 were minor hits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
