If you're talking about their prime/peak, then why you pick PRISM over Teenage Dream,
ARTPOP over TFM and Britney Jean over BOMT (25M+ )? And it still hasn't outsold UA WW.
Never change, Hive, never change...
The OP clearly talks about their current eras, wrong choice of words.
They mean the current pop girls are still hot and should be selling more albums than someone who is into 17th year in her career. Yet they sell either the same or less numbers of albums, which is true and embarassing.
and also this thread's title is stupid because, um, if we're looking at their peak, she's outsold by:
p!nk
kelly clarkson
adele
rihanna
britney
gaga
taylor
christina
katy
jennifer lopez
etc.
she might be outselling a lot of people at this very moment but not even close to in most of their peaks
edit: oh wait, i think i get it better now. not a very well thought out title
you are NOT putting Beyonce in the album selling trinity when Taylor alone can outsell her 2x over
Who cares how much more Taylor sells!? Adele destroys Taylor's ass in sales. Does that make Taylor's sales any less impressive? Please think before trying it.
And yes Beyoncé is in the album trinity. What other female artist is outselling her right now? I'll wait. No other female artist has had a 2x platinum album but Beyoncé recently.
10,000 copies is what some pop girls are opening with but when a Beyoncé album which was obviously had no promotion since February sells it in its 6th month, it's seen as nothing.
Be you, ATRL. Be you.
No inflation. Educate yourself on how the figure is what it is. And the VMAs and Grammys are coming. You are truly delusional if you think it's not going to be increasing in sales. It's already outsold Unapologetic and will only continue to.
And NOT the PRISM World Tour being needed to try to keep up!!
Why not when Beyonce also had a tour to promote?
It's at 3.3 something million, fine 3.4m, still hasn't outsold UA
I doubt it's gonna go from selling 4,000 copies this week to selling 100k from the VMAs, not even the Super Bowl does that, her back catalogue will be cannibalizing its sales from the VMA tribute.

Pink, Rihanna Taylor and Adele sell more albums than her, and they also sell singles WW. I think that makes them more powerful than her big time.
