Yet we've all seen claims by the Navy how Rihanna is the Queen of Pop. Looking at this chart, SHE'S NOT.

Making the most cash > being the most popular.

You're in every Rihanna thread and always bringing her name up when it isn't necessary and consigning everyone who "shade" Rihanna

What is Yahoo talking about?

Right!
This isn't from forbes itself.
Yahoo has to be pulling their legs.
There's no way Madonna couldn't be in the top 5 when her tour grossed more than any other artist.

Forbes isn't based on only how much cash is made. So this comment is invalid.

On a related note, why would Forbes even allow that information to leak to Yahoo, who is essentially stealing pageviews from them?

The Queen of Pop making bank like usual

girl bye! I am not in every rihanna thread and I only brought her up in this thread because your fellow stanbase member felt the need to cosign shade against Bey when at least she made top 5. The nerve of you to try and call me out when you along with plenty of other navy members storm every beyonce thread, sit down hypocrite.

oh wow, again oprah? boring
i can't believe they put Madonna #5, considering how much they hate her guts i guessed that her ranking would be between 11-20

This list doesn't really mean anything. It just gets talked about because it's published by Forbes. Clearly Madonna is more powerful than Gaga, Beyonce, and other pop stars who haven't been in the industry as long as she has.

Jennifer Lopez was #1 last year. The original assertion that this list corresponds to "Queen of Pop" status is invalid.

Gaga figures:

284 million in 5 years.



It's taken B what, 15 years?

Beyonce made that in 3 years.

Beyonce (2008) - $80 million (fifth biggest total)
Beyonce (2009) - $87 million (third biggest total)
Beyonce (2010) - $87 million (fourth biggest total)

Poor child.

I don't think Yahoo would make up a list.

If that were the only metric that mattered Madonna would be #1

Imagine the rankings for every year if that were the case.
