      Beyonceé keep ya’ll mad.

      Anyways, Love on Top was the most successful female R&B song of 2012 spending 7 weeks at #1 on the R&B charts and 4 is the 6th best selling R&B album this year therefore Beyoncé was eligible for her nomination since the AMAs base their nomination off of chart success.

      Congrats B!
