...when Self Titled went #1 in 111 countries on Itunes?? None of your "global" favs have done it. So why are we still debating this??

Denial and/or jealous.

Topped 111 countries on iTunes' charts but only going #1 in like 3 official charts says it all.

Because it was only available on ITunes.

It went #1 in like 3 countries on the official charts, which is what matters. And most of her sales came from the US.

LMAO so what ? ST went #2 in 11 countries and still sold 1,8M outside of the US. 45% of its sales come from outside of the US yet yall keep acting like she has a 80:20 ratio

Bey sold 16M albums in the US and 15M outside of it, how is she local ? Being big in the US doesn't mean that you're unknown everywhere else

Your fave a one massive era & you on here throwing shade like you Stan for Madonna

Because it was only available on ITunes.

It went #1 in 5 countries on the official charts, which is what matters. And most of her sales came from the US.

The singles also flopped WW compared to the US

what does that have to do with anything?

It went #1 in like 3 countries on the official charts, which is what matters. And most of her sales came from the US.

I think she's global but not as much as other popgirls.

There are countries (like mine) where Beyoncé (album) isn't certified while "flop" albums like Britney Jean and Stars Dance were certified gold.

He stans for Britney.

I don't know. Her tour grossed $180m outside of the USA, that's more than any Britney or Rihanna tour that are called GLOBAL by atrl.

Stop with these threads, its so god darn lame. Bey is one of the most global women on Earth, thats why shes being mentioned in the most powerful women on Earth list over and over again.

People call Taylor local, yet 1989 has sold nearly double outside the US than BEYONCÉ did.

Her singles bombed outside the US as well

Clock ha

This place calls 1989 local and is platinium-multiplatinium in all the most important music markets.

I wouldn't take their opinion seriously, generally the people complaining about " not global enough!! are the ones whose faves can't even go gold in the US.

If your fave can't outgross The Mrs. Carter Show leave this thread.

It only had 2-3 days of sales first week which is why it didin't go #1 in more countries. If it had a full week of sales it would have had a #1 peak in a lot more countries.
