But still, the FF Tour still was more profitable than Rihanna's  |
LOUD Tour still has the bigger tour gross with critical acclaim.

Most watched woman on Youtube.

Best selling digital act of all time.
And then they have the nerve to say she has no impact because she doesn't have a #1 Album in America when the truth is 40,000 albums can get you a #1 album if you release during the right week and that still hasn't stopped Rihanna from getting five consecutive platinum albums, not to mention her last three albums debuted at #1 WW... No one wants to talk about how TTT sold over 500,000 first week WW, they only want to talk about American Stats which is crazy considering shes not even from America.

This is just the TIP of the iceberg, don't make me educate you all. If it was EASY, then why aren't all the other POP girls doing this? Don't be pressed. Rihanna may not be the biggest tour artist, best singer, best actress, prettiest, or whatever, but she does well in all of them to make up for what she lacks in.
"That Rihanna Reign Just Won't Let Up!"

THE UK:
2nd best selling digtial artist in the UK.
8th Best Selling in the UK (overall)
http://www.digitalspy.com/music/news...-all-time.html
North America:
11 #1 singles
With 47.57 million digital tracks sold in the US, she is now the highest selling digital act in the country, kicking dust in the faces of efforts made by the revolutionary Lady GaGa and Pop icon Beyonce
Australia:
Most record Singles. 38
http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news...-1226504866782
This is just to name the most recent in the past YEAR.  |
You are just proving that all of her accomplishments revolve around singles.
Don’t brag about unreleased movies and don’t brag about the released ones either, since they were by no means successful.

There's a lot more than "digital single sales" to Rihanna's success.  |
LOL she hasn't sold 27-30M albums .. she is not even closed to that 
24M as much

She's important in the Pop scene. But she's a bit forgettable and disposable. If she stops releasing albums she will be forgotten really fast tbh.

Rihanna has made bigger headlines.
She has one of the biggest and most recognizable songs of all time.
Most girls in the world try to emulate her style and try to be like her, so Fashion icon.
Most boys want to **** her and fantasize about her, so Sex icon.
Was one of the first artists to do dance successfully.
Made Calvin harris a household name.
One of the most influential people in the world.
She is re-opening doors for black girls to successfully do Pop again.
I could go on and on about her impact.
 |
Please go on because Britney overtakes Rihanna on almost all aspects there

1. Rihanna has been out for 7 years now and puts a new album out every year + has multiple singles !
2. Her highest selling single by herself is only at 4.7M so why do you rihanna stans say she slays in the US ? She only slays on the radio but her single sales dont even sell well if You all Claim that WFL was the best song ever and only selling 4.7M !
3. Is to the person that said TTT > BTW WORLDWIDE ! Haha should i laugh now or later ? 
4. Rihanna is only bigger than Gaga in the UK ill give you that but thats the only place she is really big !
5. Your saying she sells out the 02 arena more that Gaga & Britney but can she sell out a 75k stadium in the UK like Gaga did a few weeks ago ? ill let you all figure that out !  |
Well in total more people attended Rihanna 02 show (in total) then GaGa 75K show
So yes she would easily be able to sell out a stadium in the UK

Her label confirmed that Number. We don't have all the totals tbh.
We can only estimate.
She has about 65-70 Million Digitals in the US as of July 2012 + collabs.
In the UK she has about 15.7 million w/ collabs
Then other countries, like Canada, France, Australia, Ireland, NZ, Germany, Japan, and etc = maybe 30 million in total..

be the princess of pop don't mean "she sells more then others".
BE PRINCESS OF POP is when she is iconic, makes the trends! and GAGA & Britney have this requirements.

Oops and BOMT are iconic. So is the Toxic music video. If none of those are iconic Rihanna's Umbrella is irrelevant.

Ya'll asked what has she done, I gave you facts.

Singles are the biggest factor for POP girls, and Right now Rihanna is dominating everyone.
