umich Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Gaga was 22 when "Just Dance" debuted on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart in May 2008 and crossed over to the Billboard Hot 100 that August. Five months later, it began a three-week stay at No. 1 on the Hot 100 dated Jan. 17, 2009. The album on which the single appears, The Fame, reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and is Gaga's top seller in the United States with 5.1 million copies, according to Nielsen Music. https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/8493644/lady-gaga-just-dance-rewinding-the-charts-2009 approx. +300,000 sold since February 2018.

jomarr Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Kinda off considering that this has been reported to have sold 17M (WW) back in 2015. Shouldn't this be higher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Billboard counts TF and TFM together because in the US TFM was a rerelease, and the last time @ViviLittleM made an inquiry, if I remember correctly, TF is eligible for 9x plat last year, and it continues to sell to date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
