I think it's probably Adele, Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Madonna, and either Janet Jackson or Celine Dion.

Why do you people think one album makes her qualify for this?

Where are her successful movies? Beyonce has grossed over 1 Billion on that.
Her Tours?
How much is she worth?
Maybe she's top 10-15.

Bey is the only one who is outstanding in Grammys, I think that puts her above Barbra. 
|
Barbra has 8 Grammys, 2 Academy Awards, and multiple Golden Globes. That just seems more prestigious to me. I mean she won a Golden Globe for best director, a Academy Award for best Actress, and Grammy's for SOTY and AOTY. She's the jack of all trades.

Barbra has prestige and record sales.
Janet has prestige, record sales, major endorsement deals and very successful tours, that puts her above Barbra.
Mariah Carey is probably #3 on my list, followed by either Janet or Barbra. Whitney and Diana after for their sales, influence and hits. Though Janet does tour better than Mariah, so maybe she's #3.

1. Madonna
2. Celine, Whitney & Mariah (They succed then they flop, they had big hits, they are equally global) I have no Idea what orther I should give to each of them
3.Britney Spears (Comming for that #2 spot)
I dont see any other girl becoming an near this top 3: Beyonce, Rihanna & Gaga or even Christina (Only if she rises like with her next 2 eras)  could be there time would tell.
