make your calculations.. I understand Bey was successful with DC but yeah... Justin Timbarlake then is the most successful male artist of all time only behind Elvis and MJ

This is proving the Hives point that Bey is more successful and more famous than Rih and Gaga. First of all Rih has like 8 albums to Bey's 5. With that many albums, Rih should be pushing 50 million albums by now. And don't even get me started on the world wide tour numbers, both Rih and Gaga are still behind even though Bey has only done like 3 solo tours. She has the 3rd highest grossing tour of all time behind Madonna or Celine I believe.

Even if Rih is tied with Bey in album sells, she has like 7 or 8 albums compared to 5. The math isn't on Rih's side. If Bey had 7 albums, she would be in the 40 million albums sold range. Not barely cracking 30 million.
And like I mentioned with the touring, Bey has the 3rd highest grossing tour for a female artist in history. All this and she's not even full on pop, she's r&b with shades of pop, but still out doing bubble gum pop artist.
With that said, the only correct answer is Bey.
