I can't at some people saying that is because she is white.

It's because r&b is not popular outside the US, wich is the same reason why Gaga is bigger than Taylor Swift outside the US.

And Tina Turner!

Not a thread facing off my two faves

How is Kesha "American Pop" and what is exactly "American Pop"?

These excuses

BASICALLYYYYY

Glad I wasn't the one to have to say it!

That is just the way it is.

Gaga is interesting to watch while Beyonce, though talented and a good performer, is so boring. She lacks the charisma like Britney, Madonna and MJ.

Because Gaga is prettier & makes more quality music!

HELLO

i'm new

The world wide success depends by Lady Gaga in opposite to Beyonce on much more promotion and WW tour. Here lacks Beyonce relativistic.

Like someone said before because of Beyonce race, I don't think it matters much in Europe hence Tina.

But it is interesting that at her comeback of Tina in 1982 she was much more successful in Europe than in US. The opposite now to Beyonce. And why? She did much more promotion in Europe, she lived even in the Swiss.

And this is for those posters who said this Artist is better, or this singer is more beautiful or whatever

I'm not here for both Artist, their music is not my cup of tea, but for some of you not to recognize that they are bot ace in their art is beyond me.

Right ! How didn't I noticed that

Beyonce is more successful in Brazil, US, AUS and the UK.....that pretty much makes her more global then Gaga.

Because Gaga constantly wears costumes and has more commercial music than Beyonce.

Its all about risks,the one doing the out-landish stuff,the imperfection,the one reaching out to societies rejects.(this plays a huge deal,you get die-hard fans ready to sacrifice money to feel treasured by that artist)
Beyonce had good music but failing to come out of that sound,cost her the global domination but it aint too late.,also the perfect woman female empowerment sidelined the rest of society especially that bit happened during the fame monster era transition to telephone, it propelled Gaga to the shift in huge number of fans that most likely were Beyonce even some Brit stans to Gaga fans. Also fan connection and appreciation and ensuring they feel it, has always been a plus for Gaga,something Beyonce struggled with before as she was too private.
I must say i was a huge huge huge Beyonce fan but Gaga took that spot after Alejandro & telephone she had the balls i always hoped Beyonce would take and for the first time i bought physical copies of an artists album cause i felt loved and appreciated for who i was ,weird to society or family at times but felt perfect thanks to her. And mind you i am Black,race doesnt play a thing in domination,its about re-invention and being unafraid to do the uncomfortable but with class and elegance. Something M.J had and i believe Beyonce has it but she cocoons that side of hers too much,she needs to let go.That domination belongs to her in my opinion.

Gaga is successful in every major music market.
Beyonce remains untouched in Japan and several others.

Gaga's highest selling > Beyonce's highest selling.
Gaga's lowest selling = three times the sales as Beyonce's lowest selling


I can't at people trying to say it's because Gaga makes pop music.
If that's the case, then why is Mariah Carey so popular in Japan?
Why are there non-pop music-making artists who are more global than Beyonce?

Truth is, Gaga is more fun to watch and her music is better.

at people bringing up costumes. Yes, Gaga is more global because of her clothing. If that's the case, her clothing alone has more impact than most pop girls.

Oh my. My life.

Simple, she appeals to more people.

This. We live in a racist world.

And pop too.
