Well good albums don't.

Good albums don't need 7 huge hits and lots of discounts, remixes, and lots of payola to sell 5 million in 2 years.

Discounts and remixes have nothing to do with album sales.
She didn't have 7 huge hits.

You're right, she's had 8.

Gurl, mainly in the US where she already sold 2,2M copies of TD, it's huge for a pop artist.
And stop saying that because she had a lot of hits, she should sell more albums, it's completely stupid, it just shows that she can sell singles AND albums.

The difference is that compared to the OOTB era, Katy increased her albums sales, you know about Gaga....

Very good.  It's too bad not as many people buy pop albums anymore - they're missing out on absolute gems like "Hummingbird Heartbeat" and "Dressing Up", which I personally though should have also been singles.
I'll never understand why they didn't release those - I honestly thought both could have been #1 hits! They're my favorites on the album.

"Judas" and "The Edge of Glory" were not flops and it is unnecessary to further discuss Gaga in a thread that has nothing to do with her.

Firstly I'm not a gurl.
Secondly I didn't say anything that you've just written - I just corrected the post saying that she'd had 7 hits, because she's actually had 8. 
Adele, Avril and Lana.

There was really nowhere to go but up for Katy, no shade
BTW remains unbothered with 6+M WW sold.
Stop bringing Gaga up.

Actually, CMM peaked on the radios, Lights (or Rihanna but I don't think so) could block her, but not Carly.

CMM is sstill ahead on both radio and iTunes though, so it could still end up blocking her. Rihanna is somewhat likely too - WHYB is getting to be massive on radio and it only just passed 1 million sales, so it has a very large amount of potential sales left.
"Lights" might not be an issue for a while since it's still selling only a little more than half what WA is.
