Well, the truth is she is kind of local. But All for You and Together Again were quite popular everywhere. But even those, not no1 smashes like in the US.

Well, she's never had a no1 hit in major markets outside of the US like the UK for example... She is local... Look at her albums sales too.

She has multiple top 10 hits in the the five biggest markets (US, Japan, Germany, France, UK), more than half of Her estimated album sales come from outside of the US, and She has also sold out arenas and stadiums in North America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Down Under on multiple occasions.

A #1 hit is not an accurate measurement of an artist's global appeal. If that's the case, there are an awful lot of "local" artists.


So again I ask, how is she "kind of local"?

ANOM was a huge Top 5/10 hit worldwide and had staying power throughout the 3rd quarter of 2006.

It spent three weeks at #2 on the UWC, blocked by SexyBack.

and damn Christina Aguilera is #5!!!

It pains me to see her haters getting smashed with facts of the queen's pop culture relevance spanning 15 years now, with a hit on the first year (1999) and current year (2014).

OK... That's why I said kind of local. Not completely local.
