I said she was close. Be realistic. Rihanna has accomplished more at 22 as a solo artist than Beyonce had as a solo artist at the age of 22. I'm not trying to turn this into a stan war. I'm just simply giving an opinion.

Honey, Beyonce debuted solo when she was 22 and sold 8 million albums and stayed 17 weeks at No.1 not to mention her 5 Grammy's she won all in less than 2 years.

And that is without counting the 30 million albums she had already sold with Destiny's Child and their No.1 singles among other records.

That wasn't all accomplished by the age of 22. Beyonce had just turned 22 (if I'm correct) when Dangerously in Love came out. All the hits, grammys, awards, etc. all happened after she turned 22. Rihanna's stats as a solo artist at 22, outnumber Beyonce's stats as a solo artist at 22.

The only reason I mentioned Britney in my first post was because Mermaid asked how much she grossed and I gave him the information with receipts to back it up.

My post on Beyonce's figures weren't hating on her. I like Beyonce as well and have no need to diss her. I questioned the reliability of the numbers (170 million grossed) stated in the clip, when other credible sites that are known for their breakdown of tour numbers state otherwise. My post wasn't flame bait, I asked a question in a civilized manner and even stated that I was here to discuss the topic civilly. I'll leave things alone and be on my way.

Like I've previously Forbes can't lie because it would ruin their reputation, they would never report or let anyone report false information under their name. They obviously know some things we don't know because it wasn't reported to Billboard who is always behind on things anyway.

The only thing she's accomplished that puts her on a level with Bey is #1s.

Album sales, tours, awards, the list is endless, ch....

I'm not saying Rihanna is on Beyonce's level, trust me, i'm not delusional. Of course Beyonce has her in all those categories, i'm just saying Rihanna is fairly close fpr someone who is only 22 years old.

Genius if Beyonce hadn't released anything solo then why the **** would you even compare them? Destiny's Child still had already sold 30 million physical albums which alone stomps Rihannas career.

But according to Forbes:

#2 Beyonce Knowles

2009 Rank: 4

One half of the most famous couple in hip-hop, Beyoncé continues to expand her business empire beyond music. Endorsement deals with companies ranging from Nintendo to L'Oreal and her growing House of Dereon fashion line bring in millions of dollars per year on top of the $86 million she grossed from a 93-stop world tour.

Do you really think that the tour grossed another 84 million of only 11 shows left? There's something that don't match here

Beyoncé cracks the top 10 for the midyear with just 15 shows, grossing $27.7 million and drawing 331,191. Beyoncé manager Mathew Knowles says the artist's team at Music World Entertainment notes her "consistent excellence, hard work and dedication she puts into every tour. Beyoncé's priority has always been to give worldwide fans a show that will entertain, invoke emotion and motivate her audiences."

Now where did Gagas $95 million come from, because it's not reported either?

Good job Beyonce!! You are telling all those lessor gurls how its done.
