And yes, if Wikipedia was around back in the 80s, we'd probably have Madonna, Whitney and a bunch of other legends for obvious reasons. But these are the ones who the GP searched for the most since like the mid-2000s.
Congrats to all ladies though

Gaga is tied with Adolf Hitler, that's something to think about?

So wikipedia search means popularity - I guess being as popular as Adolf Hitler must be quite lovely for Gaga stans.

Well, that list doesn't show popularity but who is more famous and interesting to look up.

A superstar isn't solely determined by sales but by public recognition.
Someone who the GP forgot about wouldn't be on this list at all.
