Beyoncé has peaked several times during her career. She's impacted the world several times. She did it first with Crazy in Love, then with Beautiful Liar and Irreplaceable and Single Ladies and If I Were a Boy. How was she local according to you and did not impact the world? Xtina had a big peak because she released her first album in 2000 while Bey did it three years later and if you want to compare, both peaks were huge.
Yes, i'm not denying she had a couple of hits WW, but she really wasn't a big name outside US until Single Ladies probably. R&B is a local genre. Everybody knows Christina even if they don't care about pop music.

You're wrong, Beyoncé was always a name worldwide. She got even bigger after Beautiful Liar. You're right about R&B but she managed to make her music successful worldwide.

The delusion. I won't argue because it's pointless. But i am sure she isn't a mega star outside US.

She is. For example, in my country where pop music isn't very popular, she is a star. She's always been global despite your denial and her sales and touring stats are prove to that. You just have to deal with it and stop hating.
When MTV used to play videos, her videos were played a lot and in my continent, she topped their most requested videos list plenty of times.
She had two back to back 10+ million album selling eras with hits. Plus Stripped was one of the biggest eras during her time. In fact, Beyonce has yet to have a big of an era as Xtina.
This has been done so many times, and the answer hasn't changed. X had the biggest peak among her peers + X was bigger than Beyonce at her peak (source - http://i.imgur.com/PxPIgJ6.jpg) when she wasn't even at her biggest.
