Taylor Swift comes second behind Beyoncé on Billboard's "greatest pop star of the 21st century" list...
From The NY Post
Following a lengthy countdown spanning several months, Billboard has now announced its pick for “greatest pop star of the 21st century” … Beyonce.
The former Destiny’s Child star, who went solo in 2003, pipped the best-selling pop star of the 21st century to the post: Taylor Swift had to settle for a number two placing.
But Billboard wasn’t just using record sales to dictate its list. Beyonce’s game-changing 2013 self-titled album, a surprise release that ushered in a new era of visual albums, was noted by the respected music outlet as a key factor in her nabbing the top spot.
Rounding out the top five, and announced in previous weeks, are Rihanna at three, Drake at four and Lady Gaga at five.
