Mariah Carey was undeniably the Queen of ths 90's. 10 years of consistent success.
Whitney had one of the biggest eras of all time in 1992-1993. MLIYL was also a great comeback.
Celine's albums sold like hotcakes and no song has been able to top My Heart Will Go On ever since.

Shania was bigger than Whitney

GIRL BYE. LOL

The Bodyguard Era was the biggest era of the 90's. That alone qualifies her. Let's not forget about the other soundtracks (Waiting To Exhale, The Preacher's Wife) & MLIYL album.

Had The Cinderella Soundtrack been released....whew!

The trinity is Whitney, Mariah, and Celine/Shania.

Celine & the others yes

Absolutely. Truly global queens along with Janet. They are all the definition of global. Then after them are Shania, Alanis and Toni. Can't really think of anyone else.

I'd say:

1. Celine/Mariah
2. Mariah/Celine
3. Shania
4. Whitney
5. Madonna
6. Alanis

In a previous thread today, that person said Africa was a country and that Mexico and Brazil were one country. It's best to take its comments as stan fodder at best.

Oh I forgot about her! Was she big outside of NA before Come On Over?

imo

1. Mariah
2. Celine
3. Whitney
4./5. Shania/Madonna
4./5. Shania/Madonna
6. Alanis Morissette (impacT)
7. Bjork (impacT)
8. Britney (Baby One More Time>>>>)
9. Janet (janet.>>>>)
10. TLC (impacT)

Most definitely. Along with Janet, those three were the biggest of the 90's. In my country, me and my friends call them The Big Four.

Shania? Lmao

No, but her previous album is 11x plat. Come on Over is 2x diamond.

Shania was bigger than Whitney. Dont let these ATRLers fool you.

Mariah, Shania and Madonna

I would agree with that. Whew at the combined talent.

Yeah at least WW.

In the US Janet will probably be in the top 3 though.

Shania is at least known in all the world's continents, unlike this particular artist. I always forgot her name. I think it's like Madeleine Louise or something.

Lol

OT: Sounds about right to me.

Whitney had a 17x plat. album cert in US for The Bodyguard. ** which is still under certified.
7x plat for Waiting To Exhale.
4x plat for IYBT & MLIYL
3x plat for TPW

LMFAOOO

Like I told a poster above, don't take that person's comments seriously. Anybody who claims to be from Brazil while also claiming that it has now joined with Mexico to form a new country cannot be taken seriously.
