The smallest rating season 5 got was 2.5 with over 9 Million viewers.

The smallest rating season 4 got with Shakira was 1.7 with over 5 Million viewers.... AND it hit the series low of 1.7 TWICE.

"On NBC, The Voice earned a 3.3 for its performance finale, down two tenths from last week's 3.5 adults 18-49 rating and the lowest rating ever for a performance finale".

Please provide links for your claims. Sounds like recap episodes. There's no way they just lost 8 million viewers for no reason for only 2 episodes.

Based on the iconic nature of all 3's careers, Xtina's voice alone trumps the other 3's talents combined.

Based on stats the same applies -

This is the list of females of the year according to the Billboard year end charts since 1980 (year by year):

1980: Donna Summer
1981: Pat Benatar
1982: Olivia Newton-John
1983: Laura Branigan
1984: Cyndi Lauper
1985: Madonna
1986: Whitney Houston
1987: Whitney Houston
1988: Debbie Gibson
1989: Paula Abdul
1990: Janet Jackson
1991: Mariah Carey
1992: Mariah Carey

2009: Taylor Swift
2010: Lady Gaga
2011: Adele
2012: Adele
2013: Taylor Swift

Look at all those massive icons who could own a year more than once. If the supposedly overshadowed Christina could do it twice, why couldn't Britney do it twice? Why couldn't Beyoncé do it at all?

Madam X

All three are iconic and have proven that they are not just flash-in-the-pan artists - people will always check for them. Stans just like to discredit Christina because she hasn't seen much solo success with her recent releases. Most artists can only dream to accomplish half of what these three have. They are solidified in the history books and will die as legends.

I was responding to the parameters which you were using which were RIAA Certifications based on album sales in the US.

I don't care to do the tit for tat over overall record sales as I don't care to dig through Christina's receipts. I just know the numbers for both Destiny's Child and Beyonce are indeed correct; y'all can cry about the mobile sales and DVDs all you want; they count.

Chart success doesn't define an icon. Iconic performances, outfits, and music videos do. Tour success and memorable hits play a big role. All of which beyonce and Brit are wayy higher in the ranks with.

Let's tho -- would that really have made a difference in placement? Are you trying to say that Christina would have usurped Bey's position as Billboard female artist of the decade had she released her debut four months later than when she did?

Bey's solo cumulative weeks at #1 on Hot 100 sit at 36 -- more than anyone in her generation's entire careers by a long shot. She was the dominant female radio artist of that decade. She also had three #1 albums.

is this a joke

if anything its been harder for her to find success because being black in America is a struggle much less a black WOMAN in a male dominated industry and world in general.

like are you forreal????

Where is Beyonce?

Not. She's doesn't come close to them in success, impact, etc.

Beyonces level is not that much higher than Brit overall. Yes, she's had more longtivity, but were talking overall here

but let's not forget she gets support from both urban and pop.... While other non black girls only get support from non urban radio stations..... unless you're Lorde
