Both Taylor and Rih are probably more global right now, as I said before. No need for exposing. Although it is strange that 1989 and Anti could only top 80ish countries on iTunes, while BEYONCÉ and
Lemonade both topped 100+. Hmm.
Anyway, I honestly don't care, it's not that serious for me. I'm just letting you all know what the word actually means.
Edit: Nvm, I believe Lemonade is more global than Anti.

Are they?
Well that's good news for chart freaks. The rest of the world ain't checking for it.
You know Billboard has a readership of 15 million worldwide? That's it.

None of them can sing very well
I mean come on girls. Britney used to be another but at least she can dance.
What does Taylor do except write? Please help me. I'm offended that BEYONCÉ is in the same sentence.

asdfghjkl you think Taylor is as successful as she is because of her looks/perfumes/tabloid stories? You're even more clueless than I thought.

Beyoncé is a household name worldwide.
While the majority of people in most countries outside the US don't know who Taylor is.

Mess at you trying to demean Taylor and lower her to a Tabloid starlet
Taylor has been working non stop for 10 years, writing her own albums ( Not changing pronouns or adding adlibs then claiming a whole song like some people do  ) promoting them, then going on tour for another year, then repeating the process
just because you don't like her, doesn't mean you can deny her hard work
1989 is not her first album to sell 10 million , people love her music, they don't buy it because she's pretty or have perfumes or whatever, they buy it because they like the music.

Ahh yes, this statement is surely more quantifiable and accurate than Taylor's single, album, YouTube, and touring receipts.

They're both different kinds of big.
Taylor's flash in the pan though, Beyonce will still be slaying on a global stage in 5 years, idk about Taylor.

Y'all with this illogical age argument completely ignoring what points they were at in their careers. Bey was on her 2nd world tour and 3rd solo era; Taylor was on her 5th era and 4th proper world tour in a highly expanded touring market in that same age range.
Tour for tour, both have been on only four proper solo world tours and Bey's per show average at this point crushes Taylor's. Even ignoring that part of it and just looking at the global spread, Bey's world tours at that point were hitting six continents and she was doing shows in places Taylor still has yet to touch like India, Russia, Brazil, Argentina, Peru (SA in general), UAE, Egypt, Ethiopia, Croatia, Ukraine, Czech Republic (basically most of eastern Europe), Trinidad and Tobago etc. On the flip side, there's no country Taylor's toured where Bey hasn't already been over the course of her tours.

Those iTunes positions are cute but if we look at actual sales (not just iTunes sales) from last week:
Lemonade - 15,000 WW / 8k US (53% of its sales from the US)
Anti - 12,000 WW / 4k US (33% of its sales from the US)
Using your logic, I believe Anti is more global than Lemonade.

The few thousands asian stans she has on the entire Asian continent won't make her global. We've been throught this, even Avril has those right now.

SO Britney has no cultural moments in her career, like lol
And Beyonce also ticks all those boxes but the last so not sure why your attempting to drag others for doing what she ALSO does
Taylor now But overall career wise this can NOT be a serious question
