According to Page Six, Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean, Pince’s Kiss and Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance were some of the big videos that did not clinch the number one spot.

The Formation video’s visuals included shots of Beyoncé on top of a sinking police car and a wall spray-painted with the words “stop shooting us”.

According to the video’s director, the mother of three wanted the video to show the historical impact of slavery on black love and its effects on the black family.

Beyoncé also got criticism for the video, with some calling her “anti-police”, but she was quick to retaliate, noting the accusations were wrong as she has full respect for police and her message was misunderstood.

She added she is only against police brutality and other injustice.

The singer also had two other hits in the top 100, with Single Ladies at number 12 and Telephone featuring Lady Gaga at number 66. Her hit Apes featuring hubby Jay Z was also among the best 100.
