We (not you) count it as an achievement. Because it should be. Because it is an achievement to Britney's credit. And Moves Like Jagger is no different. But you wouldn't understand cause you're not part of the WE.

also my point still stands my life feels threatened and I feel uncomfortable right now...

all for speaking the truth

my truth

it was just a poll and i paid the toll

Why are you scared. You're brave enough to call me out, you should be just as brave to take it.

All I did was call out that it was a feature?

Before it, when was Christina's last #1 on her own?

[glorytotheworld]

Most of the accounts on here are new members and they are in agreement yet I'm getting attacked

How will Exhale grow with so much intimidation?

don't really know why people are voting Demi... to be disappointing people have to have high expectations of you in the first place...

I voted Katy Perry... One of The Boys and Teenage Dream were great albums and I stanned her pretty hard but starting with PRISM her music just got really basic and boring, and then Witness was a huge flop even tho I thought it was a decent album. Now she has fallen hard and barely charts, idk something feels missing that was present on her first 2 albums. :/ 

I love PRISM

You said I was generalizing Britney fans. So I excluded you. And then when I did exclude you, you say you're scared for yourself and for the lurkers. It's not my fault that you resort to guilt tripping when people serve it to you. 

The fact that you're doing multiple replies to my posts just shows how pressed you are. But go off.

Britney, Christina and Madonna honestly this decade sucked for fans of their music 

[Invitation]

It will have to be Britney / Christina for sure.

Demi did pretty well regardless of her personal life. 'Cool For The Summer', 'Sorry Not Sorry', 'Solo', 'Heart Attack', 'Skyscraper', and 'Give Your Heart A Break' were solo hits. She only flopped the past 2 years, so as far as a decade goes I wouldn't count her in.

Xtina kinda only had 'Moves Like Jagger' and 'Say Something'. There's a 6-year-gap between Lotus and Liberation, and all 3 of her albums made 0 impact.

As for Britney, the first half of the decade was pretty good for her even though she didn't care at all, 3 strong singles from Femme Fatale + a free #1 hit from Rihanna, S&S and Work *****, also she started the trend of Vegas residency for younger and relevant artists, but Britney Jean happened and the rest of the decade is a big flop.

Christina Aguilera.

"Stripped" and "Back 2 Basics" positioned her as an artist to watch and both were really good but she never was able to make her albums afterwards have a clear vision.

Her next three albums were all good. But that's it. Just good.

"Bionic" was a good record marred by its choice of songs on the standard edition . It had a handful of great songs but also had just as many mediocre ones. "Monday Morning" and "Elastic Love" should have been singles and "You Lost Me" was lost on listeners because as beautiful of a song as it is, it clashed up against "Not Myself Tonight"

"Lotus" was bad...It had like three good songs, one great song and the rest were beneath her. "Let There Be Love" should have been the first single.

"Liberation" was good. She picked the right songs as singles but the public lost interest already.

I think the last time the public was here for her was in the 2000's too. She had all this potential with single choices too.

I would say Katy Perry next because she was on the top and instantly plummeted faster than anyone in the last ten years.

This is literally my opinion to a T. 
Christina is SO talented. Nobody here is going to question that. But ‘Bionic’ was handled so poorly with the single choices, And they did the exact same thing with ‘Lotus’

I disagree that the last decade sucked for Britney. We got femme fatale and glory. While FF wasn’t her best, it was a great album, and glory is in my trinity. But Britney did leave us wanting more (we want more, so please give us more Brit).

But I’ve got nothing for Madonna and Xtina

Demi did pretty well this past decade? I cannot

Honestly Madonna has NOTHING to prove anymore, and Rebel Heart was a good cherry on her huge career cake.
At 50-60 she still made great performances and tours, still made great videos, and still is copied by all the new *****es. 
Sure Madame X sucked. Who cares ?! she's has 13 great albums to ride with, and 30 years of archives to look at.
I STILL don't find, the fascination I have with her or Britney, with ANY of the new girls.  
There almost all disappointing, if you ask me... And Pop is just not what it used to be anymore...  

[blackguillemot]

I picked from those who I like. I picked Christina. I like Christina and to me last decade was not it. Only few songs over decade that I liked...

Christina is “huge again”??? Where?? It’s not nice to talk about someone’s weight. 

Uhhh, wasn’t talking about her weight, sweetie.

Lorde: critics adore her, cult following.

I voted Christina just to be cool, but I think Lorde could be one of the most disappointing ones. Tbh, I didn't even remember her until I saw this poll

She was shoved down my throat with that one hit of hers as if she was the next big ***t on this planet only to never hear from her ever again in my life. If that's not disappointing, I don't know what else is.

Even if Christina's solo albums weren't that successful, at least her stand alone collaboration singles were great, and she had many of them

Well you definitely can’t be talking about huge on the charts again because I don’t even remember the last time Xtina charted. Maybe 2012? Her career is anything but huge. Her lip fillers are a different story

OMG I voted and replied before reading the original post. 

What is this Xtina slander.  You really out here claiming she had a disappointing decade when she made The Voice. She built The Voice. She is The Voice. When she got a Hot 100 #1 last with Moves Like Jagger which outsold all of Britney's singles combined for the entire 2010s decade. When she also won a Grammy for Say Something. And you dare call her last decade a disappointment.

All these things, Demi did not do or achieve in the 2010s. But you tried it though. 

Moves like a jagger- 7 million

Britneys total 2010s single sales- 23.8 million

Girl, you sure about that?

[Isla]

Xtina but only because none of the albums she released the past decade actually did well for her. She's at least had a few collabs that have been hits (Moves Like Jagger, Feel This Moment etc.) and is still relevant doing The Voice and whatnot.

In the US alone, it has outsold Britney's two biggest digital sellers Womanizer and Scream & Shout both sold only 4M. MLJ is certified 9x platinum in the US alone. Her next big sellers is TTWE only at 2M and the rest just crossed 1M in digital sales. The rest barely made platinum. And we know MLJ is a worldwide smash. So if we include EU numbers, it's really over for Brit.

But nobody really cares about US sales tho
