She said Michael Jackson looked left and like 50 people on that side fainted and my guy said, "if you check well, Beyonce will be one of those 50 who fainted".

Michael Jackson's Thriller (the single not the album) is bigger than Beyonce's whole career. Y'all need to stop this nonsense.

Don’t be surprised if you see weird tweets today, like people saying Beyoncé is better than Michael Jackson or Messi/Ronaldo is better than Maradona. Do not worry. Christ will resurrect tomorrow, He will forgive them their sins and everything will be back to normal.

The way some Beyoncé fans are given to extremism makes me think Eminem’s Stan was way ahead of its time. Amazing that there was no twitter at the time

Beyonce fans are extremely brave to take on MJ

They really looked past Ariana grande and went straight for MJ.

Impressive.

Beyonce is great. But after that documentary, you people successfully moved her to overrated.

Michael Jackson thrived in a time devoid of iTunes, YouTube, Instagram..etc.

Most popular name after Jesus Christ our Lord. Even his burial supersedes Beyonce's existence

Compare Beyonce with Chris Brown, Drake, Justin Bieber, Wizkid, Davido, Ayefele and Chioma Jesus. PERIODT😒

Let me make sure I say this loudly and clearly in case you're still confused:

Beyoncé Knowles is THE greatest entertainer of all time. She's a GREATER entertainer than Michael Jackson, The Beatles, Elvis, Madonna, Prince, Whitney Houston, you name it!

Nobody compares! https://t.co/Mla9VjmhpY

No artist could match the effect of Michael Jackson. No artist alive has come close to matching the effect of Michael. He was beyond music and entertainment, he was a global force of nature. I can’t mention his name in this tweet with any entertainer. That would be sacrilegious! pic.twitter.com/mLzJLjzzVf
