When love takes over...

You have to admire Kelly Rowland. In the face of superstar Beyoncé, whose career has gone from strength to strength since the days of Destiny's Child, it would be easy to wilt under the pressure and feel the urge to succumb to Beyoncé's ostensibly bigger profile. There have no doubt been days when she's thought, "What the hell happened to me?" After all, Matthew Knowles also used to manage her. People have no doubt spent many an hour comparing the two artists. And since then Beyoncé's had more hits, got the man who owns music in America right now, has had roles in movies, has graced Oprah, and is loved the world over for her booty.

But Kelly seems like a real comeback girl. First there was the hit Dilemma with Nelly, which, in my opinion, is right up there with the best of Beyoncé, and now her collab with David Guetta has seen her extend her profile in Europe with "When Love Takes Over" burning up the charts and the airwaves all over the globe.

Not to take anything away from Beyoncé, but I have always loved the underdog. You go girl! Kelly's a survivor.
