Really hoping that Beyoncé wins it but I think it will probably be Britney. I'm surprised that Madonna has gone but I guess it's the younger people voting.

    Britney IS the world's greatest popstar. The most famous and successful at the moment, when you think of popstar you think of Britney. Although Bey could be second or first.

    Yeah Britney has sold a lot of CD's but I think Beyoncé is more deserving. When I think about the greatest popstar I think of live performances and stuff like that.

    No it's just down to Bey and Britney. Girls Aloud were eliminated quite early on.

    I think Britney's past performances match and even sometimes overtake Beyonce's without even singing the whole song live. I think lately Beyonce has been kicking everyone's asses, but think Britney deserves this title more for the mere fact she is what the title show says.

    I can't believe that Madonna went so early! Then I was dissapointed that P!nk went but was hoping Eminem wouldn't be far behind.

    I somehow think Britney will bag the "prize"

    isnt it fair to say that this competition just isn't done fairly, beyonce and britney are both huge popstars NOW, so its obvious no one from more than 10 years ago or more would have won

    I think it's a bit beyond the word Popstar

    How can you call Eminem a popstar? I am sure he would be offended to be considered as a popstar

    Beyonce is r&b

    The show's ridiculous. Madonna is the greatest popstar.

    11 No1 Albums
    13 No1 Singles
    Biggest female of all time
    Biggest earning tourer of all times
    3rd biggest chart success after Elvis and Beatles


    For her to not even make the top 4 is ridiculous :mad:

    Clealry the votes were cast by shallow, thick, ugly, teens who have the memory of ten seconds and only vote for the latest crap :mad:

    YES Beyoncé won :D. She so deserved it. Yeah I know the competition was a bit odd with some of the choices but I didn't expect Bey to win :)

    And another thing Beyonce for such a ''superstar'' has no real hits.

    You'd have at best

    Crazy In Love
    If I Were A Boy
    Single Ladies

    as timeless classics

    Madonna has at the very least

    Papa Dont preach
    Material Girl
    Hung Up
    True Blue
    Frozen
    Vogue
    Holiday
    Like A Virgin
    Into the Groove
    La Isla Bonita
    Like A Prayer

    And you could quite easily add many others

    Another thing Mariah Carey is surely bigger than the talentless zelebs they've picked.
    And Whitney for that matter

    I guess the fact it is a T4 sure said it all :mad:

    Yeah I think they were because I remember seeing the advert where Kimberly was talking about her.

    Corretion, the shallow tweenies demographic that watch T4 didnt vote for her.

    The majority that voted would have been 15 year old girls. I doubt very few people over 25 were even aware of this so called ''Best Popstar'' conversation.

    None of the artists were actually there, only a panel of Tinchy Stryder, Brian Freedman, and a journalist from The Sun.

    Madonna WAS the worlds biggest female popstar (the greatest was MJ) but that's over now, you can't say she still is because she's not. Her best songs are behind her. Beyonce deserved to win, I wanted Britney to win more though, but it came down to the two best and most deserving right now. Plus if we're talking about talent, the most talented overall. She can't dance as well as Britney, but she can surely dance better than Madonna (and sing better and act better). The most deserving was Britney for the sheer scale of her success and fame, however Beyonce is also worthy and the only one in my opinion who was worthy of winning over Britney.

    I really think Beyoncé deserved it because I can see her being around for a long time. A lot of other famous singers also praise her so she must be doing something right.

    Ill will 100% agree that Beyonce can sing and dance better than Madonna. Madonna is no Leona Lewis by any stretch of the imagination.

    But in terms of facts Madonna sheer scale of her success and fame far outstrips either of the other two.

    Michael Jackson and Madonna are known as King and Queen of Pop for a reason.

    And Madonna's music has been pretty consistent. Hard Candy wasn't brilliant but her previous album Hung Up is one of the best albums of the decade.

    Even the crowd at the show was made of hysterical, screeching chavvy girls who would have voted JlS had they've been nominated.

    Sorry but you're living in the past as much as I can see. The vote was conducted over the past 10 weeks, so if Madonna isn't the best RIGHT NOW she doesn't deserve to win. Britney is the best selling artist of the millenium, and Beyonce was one of the best selling of the past year and with DC and alone she almost defined the genre of RnB. Madonna still sells out to her older fans, but not because of anything she has done this decade imo.
