Excuse you? Whitney will outsell Queen in no time, her debut has sold over 8 million so far and the papers are saying it might become the best selling album ever by the time its done. I guess about 60 million by year 2000. When will Queen ever do it, Whitney is the best selling female debut artist OF ALL TIME!

My fave has already sold 100 million records, by the mid-90s it will be at least 130 million!

In 30 years it could be anywhere from 200-300 million.

Sis, the beauty goddess known as Ms. Williams came into the game when people were selling their children for a Whitney album. Vanessa didn't have to do that. She remembered slow and steady wins the race. Which is why I have a feeling, she'll still be around looking fine in years to come , while Whitney well

Whitney will be remembered vanessa williams will not

She slept her way to the top and we all know it. I read the books and seen Dreamgirls on Broadway, the truth shall set her free.

Don't believe everything you read... Every single media outlet want to make a quick buck out of the Queen. They all lies they are spreading.

Diana will be more iconic and she doesn't lip sync. At least my fav don't have to lip sync the national anthem

Poor *******...

Funny you say that, because Janet JUST got yet another #1 on radio.

The only person who should be sad here is you. The world seems to agree with me:

It's ok that you lash out at the younger, prettier, more talented, more successful divas. I would, too.

we know that control is a better album than any of the albums diana ross put out in the 80s. she sucks

False. If anyone made it okay for Janet to be popular, it's Madonna. And you will deal.

Of course you would give credit to the white girl, its the 80s and people are still so racist.

Donna survived the death of her genre to still be relevant.

Need I go on?

Damn, coming for Vanessa Williams is killing me!

All of these girls were already established. They had their fan-base, whereas Vanessa was a fish out of water. Yeah her winning Miss American gained her some notoriety and people knew her, but they didn't know her.

SN: you dead wrong coming for Queen Williams like this

Playboy

YESS somebody betta stan for VANESSA WILLIAMS!!!!!!

Sign me up as Stevie Wonder...... so I can drag all of you.

Tina taught Whitney nothing but how to dodge a right hook.

If Tina didnt break down barriers for female African American ARTIST I use the term loosely for Stickney. Whitney would still be singing backup in Chruch.
