Taylor Usurps Bey - New Queen of Pop
Quote:
[Bey] is in a jealous rage over the younger singer, and it’s all thanks to Taylor’s major success over the past few months!
Taylor has a new man, a string of hit singles, a new tour, and a lot of new celebrity friends....a source tells OKMagazine.com exclusively that “she’s very unhappy right now and having Taylor boot her off her pedestal has hit her right where it hurts.” But how has Taylor bumped Queen Bey from the top spot?
...
Taylor’s earning power has also blindsided the singer as “Beyonce and Jay’s whole circle have never thought much of Taylor as an artist, which somewhat prompted Kanye’s stupidity at the 2009 VMAs, so this has come as a real shock,” says an insider.
...
Additionally, with fans fawning over Taylor’s relationship, Bey is even more concerned as she and Jay have had to deal with divorce rumors for the last couple of years. And that elevator fight between Jay Z and Solange last year certainly did not help matters. “She’s really worried. Ever since the elevator attack, she and Jay have battled hard to recoup their losses,” says the source

it’s time to crown a new pop queen — and here’s why it should be Swift
You see, while Beyoncé is spending her time hawking a vegan nutrition plan like a regular Bethenny Frankel, Swift is actually making moves in the music industry, calling out Apple to rethink the three-month Apple Music free trial that danced around paying artists. And guess what? The $700 billion tech company listened, knowing that “bad blood” with Swift meant “bad blood” with millennials and artists alike.
Meanwhile, the streaming platform Tidal — backed by Jay Z with the full support of his wife — has been a “complete disaster,” according to Bloomberg. The couple pulled out all the drama in announcing the new site, hoping to change music history with a confused Kanye and Madonna together in one room.
...
Over in the hive, Beyoncé uses her Tumblr to post glossy glamour shots and slow-moving GIFs of her pouting. She’s untouchable, hidden behind a facade of glitz and a healthy dose of narcissism — seriously, the name of her page is “I Am Beyoncé.”
...
Sure, Swift’s busy making noise for her “1989 World Tour,” while Beyoncé’s not on an album cycle. And, yes, one might argue Bey’s majestic pipes still outshine Swift’s more understated sound. And Beyoncé did just inspire a new Australian skyscraper, so there’s that, too.
Still, we can’t help but crown a queen who effortlessly comes off as a cool, down-to-earth girl you’d want to share a swan floatie with — all while she makes some serious music history.

I don't understand this. Beyoncé isn't even releasing anything right now.
Why can't two women be successful without having the media pitting them against each other?

If you read the first article, you'd realize that BEYONCE is the reason that they're being pit against each other, as she's bitter and jealous of Taylor's success and does NOT respect her as an artist

This!! I just posted a thread about this. Beyoncé is not even her musical peer, that would be Katy and Gaga etc. But they know Bey is the standard and her name will bring the clicks, that is why these articles keep mentioning her. Bey doesn't even have music out either, this is such a mess tbh.

The first article confirms Bey is jealous of Taylor and very pressed by her success, so she initiated this. The second article acknowledges Bey isn't releasing

Not accurate as Beyonce wasn't the Queen of pop to begin with. The Queen of R&B but not pop. Halo is a great song but I mean it was from a 2008 album.
That said, Taylor is A not the princess of pop right now

Late as always. But akward for Bey 17 years in her career still being compared to the current top of the game.
Not everyone has that.

So the girl from OK seen the Usurps story, added a few "Sources, insiders" into it and made her own story. lol OK. If Bey wanted the hits, she would be running to the big pop producers like Max.

One question. How can someone be Queen of Pop with just one "pop" album? How can someone be considered Queen of something when she has a messy song like Shake It Off? That song is so bad. 
She has a lot to proof still. Let the throne to Madge and dont be delusional.

I know, she's been slaying Beyonce since Red was released, if not even before that
