Beyonce Takes the Crown
From chart-topping songs like Singles Ladies and Love on Top to recent hits like Cuff It and Texas Hold ‘Em, Queen Bey has done some great things in the 21st century and Billboard is recognizing it. From multiple stadium tours to multiple No. 1 albums to an insane Beychella performance at Coachella, she has truly done it all.
Billboard is backing their decision by giving Byeonce the crown by saying the title is “based on her full 25 years of influence, evolution, and impact.” They also gave mention to her Super Bowl Halftime Show in 2013 and now her NFL Christmas Performance coming up in 2024, she remains a big deal in music.
The married, 42-year-old, mother of 3 has done a little bit of everything from music to fashion to liquor and beyond. Billboard recognized her 12 No. 1 hits over the last few years. From Say My Name with Destiny’s Child in 2000 to her most recent, Texas Hold Em in 2024.
Beyonce has also earned 10 No. 1 albums on Billboard’s Hot 100 in the last 15 years. Albums including Dangerously In Love, 4, Lemoande, Renaissance, and Cowboy Carter, and many more in between over the years.
