Rihanna's new single "Diamonds" is out this week, which made me wonder: Do we even have a "Queen of Pop" anymore? And if so, who is it? Does she matter?

In this edition of Weeklings!, I discuss every possible candidate for the title (Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Britney, Adele, P!nk and the venerable Ke$ha) and pick a champ. Yes, Madonna will always be the unholy sorceress of pop superiority and accent fabrication, but it's time to select her heir. Strike some poses, ladies!
