Just because someone doesn't make most of their sales in the US doesn't mean they're more global

[bey0nce]

RihannasVeryOwn you made this thread and when Bey started getting votes you started arguing with the Hive so transparent.

---

And right now, Bey, Rihanna and maybe Katy. Bey had the biggest global female tour of the past year, biggest female album release with mass success in a short time. Rih is constantly dominant with her singles, and Katy is being consistent with mass single sales and good album sales.

But as of right now Bey wins. However it always changes

[kennylovesRihanna]

Rihanna and Beyonce clearly

Once again...does it matter if Beyonce's total sales outside of the US surpasses Katy's overall sales?

We weren't referring to Beyoncé

A diamond album is hardly something to boast about. The Brazilian population is at over 190 million, yet only 160,000 people (diamond certification) bought Beyonce, her album. If you read the conversation QueenBee and I had you wouldn't have embarrassed yourself by bringing up album sales in Brazil.

No, you were trying to make the point that buying albums wasn't a priority in Brazil as an excuse for why a certain act doesn't have strong sales there; I was just pointing out another non-Brazilian act that does very well in that market you claim can't be cracked because they're so "poor and underdeveloped." And since when is a diamond album in any country nothing to boast about? The certifications are calibrated based on the market and obtaining a diamond certification means you did extremely well and are very popular in that particular music market. Embarrassed? Please.

Since the OP asked who dominates the most continents:

Africa: Rihanna
Asia: Rihanna + Gaga
North America: Rihanna + Beyonce
Europe: Rihanna + Shakira
South America: Shakira + JLO
Australia: P!nk
Antarctica: debatable

So yea, this basically sums it up.

You forgot Katy in Australia and North America.

Even then Sale El Sol has a bigger percentage which means she's more global.
