It's much harder for girl groups to find success, 5H are the biggest Western girl group which is why their achievements are more impressive than Ariana's.

There are a lot more solo female singers in the market or trying to make it big than girl groups though. And even the Korean girl groups have Fifth Harmony beat in terms of success. If you say they're the biggest Western girl group, well yeah, I guess by default they are, but who's their competition? In fact, I would even argue Little Mix are the biggest Western girl group, seeing as they probably bring in more revenue, with their big album sales and touring gross, even if they are pretty local.
Besides, Ariana is definitely one of the biggest female singers today. Obviously she's not on Adele or Taylor's level, but she's easily top ten.
