Dhouldnt think be in the Shakira forum?

She's not really pop either.

No because it's "Chart Chat".

This is based on my estimates remember, so dont shoot me if I'm wrong ;) They aren't official figures ;)

Well she probably has passed it. I'm guessing she'll be Top 20 for at least another few weeks, and Top 40 for another month or two.

 

I guess 500k is a possibility.

Sorry I didnt see the chart part so yes it prob does deserve to be here

She's not really pop either.

Or the Queen :|

Or the Queen :|

My thoughts exactly. :mellow:

And mine, I thought you meant Madonna. :rolleyes:

 

*backs out of thread*

Exactly imo

 

Queen - Madonna

 

Princess - Kylie

 

King - Michael Jackson

 

Prince - Robbie

 

 

What do you guys think?

Why do you call her thew Queen of Pop???

 

I doubt she wants to be call like that...

 

Half of her stuff is not even pop... :wacko:

 

You should have posted this in the Haven's Top 20 Singles :mellow: :unsure:

Well whatever dude, she's bigger than Madonna was 20 years ago, so she's the new Queen.

wouldnt call ehr queen of pop, queen of latin B)

She def not the queen of pop imo anyway

Shakira is certainly not the queen of pop by any stretch of the imagination! I agree with Dannyboy's view on the pop royal family. lol. Though arguably Britney may be the princess. I would rather think Kylie though!

Britney does not deserve it either,. Yes she has been v successful. Not denying that but Kylie has had longevity and is generally liked by all.

That's what I meen. Kylie deserves the title. I think to Europe she is anyway. The rest is hardly non arguable. Shakira is not the queen of pop. Not to offend, but I have never heard anything like it in my life!

Well whatever dude, she's bigger than Madonna was 20 years ago, so she's the new Queen.

For having a handful of hit singles? (In the commercially recognised market) Like most people I didn't even KNOW Shakira had done loads of albums I thought LS was her first. :mellow: Sorry to disappoint but Shakira isn't now, nor will she ever be bigger than Madonna. That's coming from someone who doesn't even like Madonna, so I dread to think what her fans will say. :lol:

How doesn't Britney deserve it exactly? :unsure: She's had 4 extremely successful studio albums, Britney is successful in some way or another in every market she's tried to crack, something which Kylie has not. Oh and I love Kylie by the way, but she isn't bigger than Britney on a global scale in my opinion.
