Mariah Carey is/was more succesful than Beyoncé, even though we laugh at Me. I Am Mariah's sales, her other albums outsold everyone's faves. So no.

Just because Britney isn't selling what she used to, that doesn't mean that Beyonce has "surpassed" her. Just because she's currently doing better than Britney doesn't mean a damn thing. Britney has this thing called a legacy, and unlike Beyonce, her accomplishments can be measured more than in (American) chart success. She peaked long ago, but the sad thing isn't that she is not what she used to be, but that she accomplished more in 5 years than Beyonce has in 17, despite currently being in her "peak" as some of her deluded fans like to call it.

What's sad is that most of Beyonce's hits have been forgotten by the general public.

What's sad is that Beyonce's career has been a line-up of hand-outs thanks to her father and her husband.

What's sad is that Beyonce is only such a big name because she's absolutely terrified of receiving even the slightest form of criticism from anyone, and therefore does all in her power to eliminate anything that could pose a threat.

What's sad is that she wouldn't be where she is today if wasn't for a string of lies, thieving, covering up truths, manipulation, and backstabbing (check Destiny's Child members).

What's sad is that the so-called "revolutionary" album release that was most likely not even idealized by her (but I'm sure she takes credit for everything like always) lost its hype within a month, and only inspired a whopping 1 musical act (Kid Cudi) to follow suit before the "impact" of the album was gone for good.

What's sad is that even though her touring numbers are impressive, she still can't be called "global" since 2/3 of her most recent album's sales comes from the U.S. (funny how you all love to brag about it topping the iTunes charts in 110 countries when its international success is barely half of its American success).

What's sad is how Taylor Swift, an artist whose fans will admit is mostly successful in America, managed to sell more copies of her most recent album outside of the United States, and get hits that were successful for more than 3 weeks, and again, outside of the U.S.

What's sad is how she has done maybe 2 legitimate iconic things throughout her entire career that will actually be remembered years from now.

What's sad is how her fans were cocky about her commercial success in December, and are now acting as if she's above having hit singles, albums that sell well for longer than a month, or promoting her work for it to be successful. Considering how fast Drunk in Love plummeted, how Partition never reached the Top 20, and how Pretty Hurts never even charted, she's not, so they can cut the ****.

So you can keep the tour and album receipts (even though she isn't triumphing everyone like her fan base tries to make it out to be), but do not try coming for someone who actually has an iconic status as a pop star. Do not try coming for someone who actually worked her way to the top without having to rely on powerful connections to get herself into the big leagues. Do not try coming for someone with far more songs, videos, performances, and simply events associated with her that have left marks on pop culture because one thing I'm sure that the Beyonce fans do wish is that people would actually remember the things she does for longer than a few weeks. Why do you think she's going on tour again after just wrapping one up? Because that's the only way she'll keep her name in the headlines. Apparently, her "star power" that her fans praise to the heavens only worked for a limited time, and now she needs to try something new aside from relying on her name alone to sell records. You all like to make fun of Rihanna, Taylor, Katy, etc. for being forgettable artists who haven't made impact on anything aside from the charts, but in reality, Beyonce is no better and her fans are grasping at excuses like straws to convince everyone otherwise.

Now THAT'S sad.

Like what boundaries?

Music is her main thing. She's not CLOSE to being #1 there. So she can't possibly be the biggest star in the world. And in huge regions of this world, like in most of Latin America and Asia, she is not relevant right now.
