Even more impressive. But okay at the chorus "It's Britney Bitch" literally not being enough.
Even Will HIMSELF said that his biggest solo song to date was all thanks to Britney. Don't front.

Beyonce was on a Jay-Z song that also had Nas, Pharrell, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Swizz Beatz, and herself and still couldn't smash on iTunes. You can use the excuse it wasn't a single, but at the time of the release there was no single so it could've taken the lead as one (which Holy Grail ended up doing).
We can also compare Ooh La La a Soundtrack Single, to Rise Up a Soundtrack Single.
I use the gerls equally, but c'mon Beyhive - it's obvi.

She's on like half the song.
Barely on it would be like Christina on Moves Like Jagger

Beyonce may have SL and Halo but she's not as consistent as Britney. 4 proves that.

You say any like she's on half the damn album when she's only credited for one song which wasn't the single, Holy Grail was.
How is it obviously when the facts remain Beyoncé has sold more digitally than #BritBrit

Ooh La La's production may be generic and mainstream but why the hell are Beyonce stans acting like it was always gonna be some smash hit?
It's a childish and terrible song for the Smurfs movie, if you think it's any indication whatsoever of her selling power you guys will be in for a shock when she releases her lead single and it tops 40+ countries. ![lmao](http://atrl.net/forums/images/smilies/images/smilies/lmao.gif)

Oh & we can also use the fact that on that song Jay-Z shouted out "BOW! Britney bitch" to get a couple sales. nnnn

Britney because her biggest hits weren't when digital sales exploded.

Beyonce has sold more digitally, because her heights of her career were digital era. Single Ladies much?
B'Day was also during the burst of the Digital Era.
Didn't Britney's Oops or Baby One More Time sell like 10+ million in the PHYSICAL ERA? When sales were substantially less for Single CD's?
It's clear Britney could've snatched the Digital Era had 2007 not been Beyonce's height and her meltdown and low. Unfair comparison.

None of their single sales last era were impressive, but 4 still managed to sell double what Femme Fatale did. (1.4 million vs. 0.7 m) ![Doc](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/ATRL_Smilies_All/atrlers/doc_zpsc886535c.gif) Selling 700k more albums > Selling 2.5 million more singles (with singles that went top 10).

Actualty Rtw +950k , Countdown 550k , DFY +400k , Party +300k and others little more...

Bey has a far bigger peak digitally, but the "4" era made me very skeptical.

You know can't nobody get down like us
We don't stop 'till we get enough
C'mon, turn it up 'till the speakers pop
Break it down, show me what you've got
Take my hand, we can go all night
And spin me round just the way I like
It feels so good, I don't wanna stop
You don't have to wear no designer clothes
Just as long as we're dancing on the floor
Fingers in my hair and I'm letting go tonight, so free
Sounds like a typical Britney club song to me. "Ooh La La" is the essence of "mainstream" music.

Right.
It fits right in with Toxic, Gimme More Womanizer, Circus and TTWE. ![](http://www.breatheheavy.com/exhale/public/style_emoticons/default/orangu.gif)

Are y'all going to continue changing when the height of her career was? I see y'all say it was DIL but now it was I Am..? Okay then, I'm just glad Bey peaked with her 3rd album rather than her 1st, if that's the way things work.

Actually, it is still the case. The receipts are all in this thread.

OLL isn't the type of song that would smash in 2013 anyway. Look at the charts.
What now, are we clinging onto a Smurfs 2 soundtrack?
However, I personally think Ooh La La is as mainstream and generic as it gets but that chorus alone is literally screaming "DON'T BUY ME". Damn, I hate that song so much.
Rant over.

Beyoncé technically, but this forum is full of Britney stans so of course she would win the poll.
