To be fair, their line makes sense:

This iteration of Beyoncé’s fame is what Gaga seemed to be joking about at the start of her career — this traffic-stopping collision of egotism, bravado and pure power, of commanding attention and getting it. All of it.

It's just saying that if The Fame was about having, literally, fame and money and power, then Beyonce is perhaps the modern pinnacle of fame and success with regard to music acts.
It might be grossly out of context since The Fame was more about a Paris Hilton, Britney Spears reckless kind of fame, but it's not completely out of touch.
