Don't ICONS have more than 13% of their albums go number one?

Or have a song of the decade?
Or an iconic video?
Or positive publicity that doesn't refer back to negative publicity?
Or get good reviews as a performer?
Or play instruments?
Or write songs...and write good enough songs that can be released as singles?

Rihanna is an icon but she's not the biggest since Britney

[Mrnoniee]

no .

[dinorel]

Yes she is, Rihanna is just following the Madonna and Britney stuff in pop music.

There's nothing iconic about Rihanna besides her red wig and the altercation with Chris Brown.

She's iconic for her string of ****ing worldwide smash singles and provocative music videos. And iconic for being a bad bitch / bad rolemodel who doesnt give a ****

[RomanNavy]

Yes ICON is

Twitter was fuming because no one thinks Rihanna is an icon. Everyone wanted Beyoncé or JT.

But it's okay they have the Grammys and the accolades and the relevance to always hit number 1 on the BB200

AMAs >>> Pressed stans

Rihanna has Grammys too... same amount as JT actually.
And they all have a special award... Rih has the ICON award, Bey has the millenium award & JT has that special VMA award.

You really tried though.

It's between Rihanna and Gaga (unless we count Christina, because then it would obviously be Christina). Gaga has the more iconic videos, performances and songs, but Rihanna has had so much more longevity with so many inescapable hits that you can't think of the late 2000s/early 2010s without thinking of her. I'd say it's tied for now, tbh.

Hey gurl, go look up ICON in the dictionary. None of that **** is official criteria

[Michete]

Absolutely not.

She might actually be the LEAST iconic of the major pop girls of this era.

I love Rih and she's had spectacular success and a lot of great songs but she has very, very few moments that could actually be called iconic.

But you know, ATRL (especially the Navy) stay ignorant to what the word "iconic" means. So.

But you couldn't say anything about the number one albums though?

YOU really tried. But pick and choose I guess.

Hannah Montana / Miley Cyrus / Slayer of Pop Culture is a contender for this title, just saying

She indeed is, but she still has a lot to prove

Rihanna is iconic for getting beat then if we go by dictionary. It's not like ppl are all that aware of Rihanna's single sales.

1. Umbrella is
2. WFL the grammy award winning video is
3. No pop girl has positive publicity (doesn't sell)
4. She is getting good reviews, that's why her tour is slaying with 140 mil gross
I believe Gaga, Katy and Taylor are the only peepz who play instruments -> Not a requirement
5. Whitney Houston or Elvis Presley never wrote a single song. NEVER. Rihanna wrote most of 3 albums tho.

Her 5th album will prove if she has longevity and Bangerz has yet to scan platinum in the US which should happen by the spring the latest

[Tigre]

Y'all know I love Rihanna but you simply give her TOO MUCH CREDIT.

You sound stupid. You don't have to try THIS hard to shade her, sis
