No surprise at the effect that the Justin/Nicki video is having, they are arguably 2 of the biggest artist in the world right now.

 

Adele? Rihanna? Gaga? Katy? One Direction? Maroon 5? Taylor?

Clue in the words "2", "of" and "the".

You're better off not knowing I think! :lol:

I know what the Buzzjack KO is now and it doesn't bother me at all. Buzzjack is not my life and at the end of the day all it is is just typing words on a computer addressed to people that you've never met and probably will never meet in your lifetime.

 

A lot of you people need to go outside and meet and interact with other people face to face instead of spending your life on Buzzjack.

Maroon 5 look a bit out of place in that list. They don't seem to have the stanbase that all the others have.

You tell em Legend!

ukcsf, are you for real? Can't you survive without LivePopBars for a few hours?! Dearie me.

Yeah of course. Just curious to see if anyone was frustated about it. That's all.

 

Do people think any X Factor performance tonight will boost a song back into the Top40 and eventually go Top40 the following weekend?

 

By the way sorry if this is a very daft question but is The Rolling Stones new song chart eligable?

I wouldn't even say that they are, though.

It seems to be a pre-order so no, not until the album released.

You wouldn't even say that they are two of say the biggest ten popstars in the world right now?

Adele? Rihanna? Gaga? Katy? One Direction? Maroon 5? Taylor?

 

I said arguably, and right now i think Nicki and Justin are more talked about than everyone in that list right now apart from Rihanna and One Direction

Justin definitely is up there (arguable THE biggest pop star, only Lady Gaga has a fanbase that rivals his). Nicki is probably in the top 20 aswell.

This is only going to lead to page long discussions, but I may as well add my opinion. Justin Bieber and Nicki Minaj are definitely two of the biggest popstars at the moment. Both achieved recent #1 albums (both sides of the pond), whilst 'Starships' remains one of the biggest selling tracks of this year. Minaj's involvement in American Idol, and the recent news story, has only elevated her position; I'd put her in second place behind Rihanna. Gaga and Perry not so much from 2012 thus far, though I'm sure Gaga will return to stardom next year.

 

In terms of the other big names, One Direction is surely up there - and Taylor Swift and Ne-Yo are enjoying a return to the top too.

I don't really know how well these artists sell worldwide (including Asia and parts of Europe) but i would say that Nicki and Bieber are definitely up there as two of the biggest in the world right now.

I'd say at the moment it's something like:

 

1. Justin Bieber

2. Adele

3. Lady Gaga

4. One Direction

5. Rihanna

 

Going by Kworb it's:

 

1. ADELE

2. David Guetta

3. Maroon 5

4. One Direction

5. Rihanna

6. Taylor Swift

7. PSY

8. Flo Rida

9. Coldplay

10. Muse

Even if Taylor sells more than the Nicki/Justin total in her first week sales in the US?

 

 

I do not think Nicki is much of a fuss outside the US, definitely not comparable with Rihanna.

 

(Surprisingly enough) Bieber is a teen idol. But teen idol is completely different to being an artist. He is a manufactured, supermanaged act (no wonder one direction, who can actually sing much better than he does, are the most comparable/compatible acto to him). And the truth is that even his teenage fanbase accepts it is more of the act/roleplay/or whatever you want to call it they like than his singing or songwriting ( :lol: ) Correct me if I am wrong but I think that even Biebers sales (US, UK or worldwide) are not that impressive. Taylor, Rihanna, Adele, Gaga etc sell WAY more.

 

As far as the 'talk' is concerened you just witnessed the very way it is generated. A provocative comment (even if not on purpose) followed by 4-5 replys against him. Popularity can be both positive and negative and Bieber currenty has to be the 'most hated' around. Haters do not take away sales. :lol: If they did he would be on negative ground.

LOL! Rylan is performing Gangham Style on X Factor, this song is everywhere at the moment.
