Something is wrong with the world when characters like Lady Gaga and half naked performers like Beyonce are considered powerful in the world (albeit the U.S.)

ReplyDeleteI totally agree with CC. But im proid of the Black race that in the top 5 are contaned 3 blacks.
ReplyDeleteIt all boils down to their definition of the Word 'POWERFUL'
ReplyDeleteThe first lady yes, Hilary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi and Oprah yes. But Lady Gaga and Beyonce, please! America is so obsessed with celebs it is crazy. What of all the female CEOs of Fortune 500 companies, now that is powerful!
ReplyDeletethis list is a hot mess and the Author should know that this is not representative of the world ! duhhhh
ReplyDeletei saw the whole list and Chelsea Handler is no 33. abeg what is she doing there?
ReplyDeleteattention ashawo(lady gaga), prostitute looking (beyonce), confused parent(angelina jolie) and gay because i'm ugly (Ellen deGeneres) women are the new powerful women in the world? wow, this world must really SUCK.
ReplyDeleteI SEE THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE SIT IN NIGERIA AND ARE UNAWARE OF WHAT GOES ON IN THE WORLD. FOLLOWERSHIP MEANS POWERFUL. LADY GAGA HAS MORE FOLLOWERS THAN MOST PRESIDENTS AND CEOS COMBINED. I SAW KIM KARDASHIAN IN NEWYORK AND THE PRESS NEARLY MAULED HER. WHAT DOES SHE DO FOR A LIVING? SHE IS A SOCIALITE FIRST THEN A BUSINESSWOMAN. PLS FORGET ALL THAT RAY J STUFF. IT WAS JUST TO GET ATTENTION. SO OPEN YOUR EYES TO YOUR WORLD. GAGA WOULD ROCK IN JAMAICA OR CHINA CAN YOUR CEO DO THAT. SELAH
ReplyDeleteso lady gaga is more powerful than a whole queen of england? i hear u
ReplyDelete@anonymous
ReplyDeletesorry u are the one that needs to get out a bit more..and just 'cos Linda operates this blog for 9jas..quite presumptuous of u to think everyone blogs from 9ja which ain't even a bad thing nice to see our folks in 9ja repping!!..
U sit down there in US/UK talking crap about Lady Gaga and KimK..who cares about how much money they make..u no doubt missed the threads on Whitney and T.Braxton
This women rep the women that are powerful from a western perspective have no bearing on women outside that context..POINT!!..next time come harder..
At anon 3:28 AM a la lady gaga monster. GO and Use petrol to fry egg...or better still go and hug a high tension electricity pole on a rainy day! Rubbish!
ReplyDelete@idomagirl: My sentiments exactly. I was just about to comment on why on earth Chelsea Handler would be considered as one of the top 100 most powerful women. She hosted the VMAs and so she has automatically become powerful. Na wa oh.
ReplyDeleteWeeee! Mother Monster made the list. That's Hot but I'm wondering what Beyonce is doing on that list. I'm a huge fan but she really doesn't have as much power to influence the world as Gaga does.
ReplyDeleteSome of us just sit back in our lush poverty and talk shit about people they don't even known under the whole ANONYMOUS guise. Have small FUCKING FREAKING BALLS and put a real name and face to your comments.
