Lowkey tbh

Britney was also at the Super Bowl. And she had a pretty famous beef with Eminem, who was bigger than Manye at his peak

Britney Spears came and went?

Taylors “bigness” is vastly overrated I promise you she doesnt matter outside of white america

Son what the f*** is y'all even saying itt lmao

If we talking bout a white woman that everyone fw’d mention Princess Diana or Julia Andrews

Taylor did 10 million units last year with 15 different albums. Britney did that in 1999 with just her debut

Uh yeah lol. She lasted from like 98 to 2008. With the last few years being questionable...

She did have an insane influence. I remember she had preppy white girls on lock, but Taylor been had that now

"She lasted from like 98 to 2008"

"came and went"

do u hear urself?

She had kinda went by like 04?

Then she had that gimmie more song and I think that was it.

If they say Taylor bigger they too young

Nope

sure. we all remember early 2004.

she released an album in 2011 with a #1 hit and two more top 10s. Had a big hit in 2012 with will.i.am. 2013 is when her run ended

From Baby one more time to toxic, absolutely

Yes because regular people can actually name Britney songs

educate yourself. She accumulated most of her Billboard hits after her comeback in 2008. Womanizer, Circus, 3, Hold It Against Me, Til The World Ends, Scream & Shout.

Hell naw

Brit could’ve been but no

We have the numbers. Taylor is bigger. I really can’t stand y’all man.

the ratio on that tweet though lmao

Capitalism has changed pop culture in the last 20 or so years

Popularity inflation is a thing, the numbers don’t really tell a true story

I wouldn’t say a lot of these marvel movies were bigger than the titanic for instance in terms of cultural impact and ‘real world’ fame

Brittany Spears felt bigger in the 2000s much more so than Drake or Taylor Swift have in the 2015-present

I’d compare Brittany Spears level of celebrity to Kim K who’d I would consider more famous than Taylor Swift

As a commercially successful artist I’d say Taylor has surpassed her but Brittany Spears had a global appeal that transcended western pop culture bubbles — my Arab family overseas were obsessive over her anecdotally

Popularity inflation

Britney came out the gate swinging & it took Taylor a bit to get there, I think that speaks volumes in itself. And Britney kept turning out big single after big single for years

Britney Spears first ever single

Vs Taylor’s
