Tabloid media like to discredit them coz it give them more page views. I have countless articles from respectable sources relating to Kelly Rowland that states the contrary but as a Beyoncé fan I am sure again that you just ignored these.

Do you not remember 1998-2002. They used to call them BEYONCÉ & the girls. EVERYBODY swore she was a diva stealing spotlight please don't do this. Beyonce literally sung almost everything

Type in 'B' in the Youtube search bar.

Then type in 'R' and 'K', and you have your answer.

She definitely wasn't during the '4' era. It's only since the master-stroke that was 'Beyonce' came along that she's been called the biggest star...

This.... One year ago people woud proclaim Beyonce is over and now praise her to heavens because of the visual album and the massive money generated from her intensive touring,

What about 2013 leading into the album? The inauguration, the Super Bowl? The tour? The haircut? The media attention? She always had STAR POWER. Even during 4, the press from the pregnancy. Record sales don't reflect star power

beyonce merged like 3 tours into one the fact that Rihanna's average per show is bigger is very telling

In their whole career at that.

Short memory, I guess. The end of the year will change the panorama again. Six months don't make you the biggest popstar on earth.

Running out of comebacks, I see using the first letter of their names/YouTube search results as a receipt.

I searched M, Michael Jackson or Madonna didn't come up first.
Using this theory, I'm guessing Katy Perry is bigger than MJ?
Drag, I guess?

[Katy V.!]

Biggest star? Yes.

No I don't remember.

All this was achieved by not doing sit down interviews, few magazine covers, not performing all on TV. This really just works & goes home, but she on ya mouth like liquor

Michael Jackson and Adele aren't releasing now are they... Beyonce is.

For someone who is supposed to be the world's biggest popstar, she's not searched for very much is she?

You can't be telling me I think something because of who I am.
I just don't see Rihanna making a mark in the industry. All those legends, they have something special about them. Michael Jackson, Madonna. Beyonce has the most talent in this generation, and that's a fact. Beyonce has worked so hard for where she is at, and I do see her going down as a legend. I see Rihanna as a star for this generation, releasing great singles which go as #1. I do not see her impact. I do not see her unique talent.
So don't be telling me I think something just because I am a Beyonce fan. Beyonce does not influence my opinions on Rihanna.

lol. Rihanna is special and you will deal. The fact that she had better ranks beside the money part in the Forbes list than Beyonce speaks volumes. Touring is always a bigger part for nostalgia acts and veterans. Her lack of hits puts her far away from that title. No one cares for how much money she makes in real world. They want the hits to blast on their cars, vacations,offices etc.

'Beyonce' received more hype and publicity than any other album last year though...

So we limiting it to YouTube? Not TV show or newspaper mentions? YouTube is for the youngins. The GP watches the news & other media outlets.
