Today, Billboard has officially crowned the entertainer the greatest pop star of the 21st century, securing her the No. 1 title on the site’s staff curated list.
Beyoncé, who stepped onto the scene in the early ’90s with the group Girl’s Tyme, is no stranger to the limelight. From her start with the R&B ensemble to her success with the R&B supergroup “Destiny’s Child,” Bey has delivered hit after hit.
The artist scored her first No.1 Billboard spot with the outlet on March 18, 2000, with Destiny’s Child’s female anthem “Bills, Bills, Bills.” The music icon received her second No. 1 with Destiny’s Child’s breakout hit “Say My Name.”
