Beyonce Missing?
Beyonce achieved this in 2003 with 'Crazy In Love' (Single) & 'Dangerously In Love' (Album). Not only that but she is one of very few acts to have achieved the U.S. chart double & the U.K. Chart double simultaneously. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 102.0.50.4 (talk) 12:17, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
