Discussion: BB: Bey is the Greatest Performer of the past 25 years - Page 6

Well, that's BB's opinion but that doesn't make their claim universally reliable becuz some people may think other artists perform better than her.

You beyonce fans need help.

Some of these posts have to be trolling. In what world is 5H on Beyoncé's level performance wise? Justin Bieber? Isn't his tour getting terrible reviews? At least Gaga and Madonna are respectable performers but even then a comparison to Beyoncé seems a bit of a reach when Beyoncé is arguably at her performing peak right now.

I have seen Kanye twice and Gaga and Madonna once and the best parts of their shows struggle to touch the low points of the FWT.

Lip syncing isn't performing

At least Bey can give us complex choreography and live vocals at the same time

I disagree. From the "old" crop of popgirls, Pink is better than her. From the new crop, Fifth Harmony has her beat, and that's just the women. Justin Bieber for example is also better than her, objectively speaking.

Performing is more than dancing to pre recorded vocals and having an aesthetically pleasing stage setup.

You're not a performer if you can't deliver stage presence, vocals, choreography, and energy. Beyoncé does all that and more, but if you trolls wanna say Britney is the better to help you sleep at night, go for it.

It's just so funny how stans of artists x, y and z can express their opinions on their faves in peace until it comes to Bey's fans and then people get so dramatically irritated and respond in such an over the top manner to everything that is expressed no matter how subjective and generally benign the comments are. It's so weird and unnecessary.

Anyway, not a lie told there, Billboard.

Why is everyone getting so bothered about who's the "best" performer?

Appreciate every performer for what they can offer instead of who offers it best.

Can you imagine how boring it would be if EVERY performer was the same?

We need variety and it's true some might do things better than others, but ultimately I respect every performer for being different.

If any of you went to the formation tour you'll agree. Best performer since MIke.

This. It was my first time seeing her live and man... that was an experience

Bie

I am a Britney fan and I agree. To be honest, Britney had so much potential for this title but we know what happened to her so it brought her down. Beyonce's performing skill gets better as time goes. Even with unknown songs, she performed them like they were smash hits (see VMAs 2013 and 2016 - no shades tho).

For me Beyonce, Britney and J.Lo are the trinity.

Ascension

Yeah, that's the thing...

Bey does this.

And this...

This, too...

Oh, and...

She's the first major mainstream performer that completely blurred the lines between the pristine diva vocalist and dynamic performer paradigms; she can stand and sing in a ball gown and completely captivate or throw on a leotard and give an electrifying high energy performance. So, so few have a skill set stacked up in such a manner and even less can execute as well -- she's truly rare.

Like seriously...name one artist who puts on a better show than Beyonce. Let's give credit where it's due, boo.

Though I was warned for my original response (

), I will just say that Beyoncé has certainly established herself as the must-see performer of this generation. Every televised Beyoncé performance is a cultural event.

MJ and Madonna debuted well over 30 years ago. And Britney can't perform on any level close to Bey, don't even try it.

Clocked it.
