Knee fans have no business dragging anyone. They cling to those reciepts of her first two albums, most of which are now clogging landfills. She was never an important figure in music. She's a tabloid icon. They think the fact that her career lead to girls like Willa Ford is an accomplishment.
To have such worldwide appeal and still fail to outsell a 'local' artist is more embarrassing though, right? I just don't see the drag or fun in general in making fun of the sales per country when she's outselling artists with wider appeal. And it makes it worse if she's doing it without "global" hits as well
local or not she's still doing better than the "global" girls at the moment
It's more like another aspect where pop girls can be compared rather than something that enters a total sales formula.
BEYONCÉ selling 10% more than another pop girl album is a negligible difference, so that's why the stans and haters focus on other areas like hit singles and global spread, where the difference is really significant.
