Um no. That 15 second scene in Countdown is the only thing she caught any negativity from. 
And Beyoncé in general is the far bigger star, and this concerns EVERYTHING, not just album sales or charting positions. Beyoncé is a brand and a household name with only 4 records.

Rihanna is slaying everywhere lately but overall I would definitely say that Beyonce is the bigger "star". For now.

I think Rihanna at the moment is the bigger worldwide star honestly. I think that Bey has her own iconic status worldwide that Rihanna has yet to meet, yet. It's harder to compare them though since Beyonce is easily the leader of R&B since nobody really competes with her and Rihanna is fighting 2-3 people for the position of "leader of pop music." But at the moment, Rihanna. Could change pretty quickly with their next eras, though, since 4 doesn't contain the amount of hits that Talk That Talk does.

Put them two on a worldwide tour passing through the same countries and you will have your answer............................................ ......
BEYONCÉ
Regardless if she has no hits on the radio... but she's the one to put on a COMPLETE show that people all around the world wants to see... can Rihanna honestly do it? I mean REEEALLY do it?

Here's the thing. I vote for Rihanna, but I will stand down and rather not choose sides.
Rihanna is only 24, but she's already accomplished so much in so little time, even if she's not as critically acclaimed as Beyonce. Beyonce accomplished a lot too, but at 30, she's too far into her career to have a Thriller moment. She tried countless times, and even hailed as the "second coming of Michael Jackson" but that really didn't make an impact, just outrage from Michael Jackson fans.
Rihanna is just starting to make her impact in the business and, in my opinion she'll be on the same league as Madonna years from now, just because She's just IS. In 20 years, she'll be more successful and more respected than Beyonce. She doesn't try hard to be the biggest popstar out there. Madonna doesn't try hard, she's just Madonna, she's repulsive, provoking, and controversial.. She's upfront and outspoken, and that came with sincerety. Rihanna is exactly like Madonna in the same vein that she just wants to have fun with her music. She doesn't want to be the next Michael Jackson, or God.
Compare Beyonce's first 24 years with Rihanna's first 24 years. Then you'll see the clear distinction in their careers, don't compare "now", Compare relatively.
Beyonce may have an advantage with Destiny's child sales, but Rihanna has the upper hand with regards to concert sales. If I remember, I don't think Destiny's Child was a tour powerhouse back in their hayday.
Rihanna at age 24 is 10x more succesful as Beyonce's first 24 years.

It's very very similar to the Mariah/Madonna rivalry in the 90s. Mariah being more critically acclaimed, while Madonna being bashed and criticized. But in the end we both know Madonna was the bigger one, although I loved Mariah. So I think Beyonce would be in the Mariah league, but not the Madonna league.

It really doesnt matter since 400 votes mean nothing, we know more than sheer honesty went into this poll, ATRL politics.
And Beyonce is more than a popstar, you know that.

That is not the point. You can't blatantly say in 20 years Rihanna will be this and that because careers come and go all the time.
