ElleDriver Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Eh, cute sales but kind of underwhelming considering the SB promo and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's really impressive for Joanne. And one of those singles went #1 for 9 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, she could've easily given away 1,000,000 copies of her album like a certain someone did, if you want to talk discounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perfectillusion Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) It sucks how gaga stans cant even make a thread about their fave making an achievement without the navy running in to try downplay any success Gaga gets.

zombaland Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Very embarrassing considering the numerous live performances, Superbowl, million discounts and so many more things - yet hits 500K now. I mean this is yet another blow to the worst stanbase mankind ever witnessed. I mean, you reap what you sow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant drag an artist for discounting when your fave literally gave away the album for free for a platinum certification. Meanwhile, ANTI was released a year before Joanne and Joanne is holding up pretty well, especially to an album with a 9 week long mumber one single.

Considering she had March Madness advertisements with AO, the Samsung advertisements/Anti Diary,not to mention all the random events she had like when she unveiled the album artwork. And all the endless teasing of songs on instagram... let's not pretend she dropped Anti during some long hiatus/silence. She promo'd the album for like a year before it came out... I am a HUGE Rihanna Stan but Anti had a lot of promo Edited March 30, 2017 by JBYRD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is quite sad, honestly. You do realize that Rihanna gave away her album for free, while people actually purchased Gaga's discounted material? Anyway, I never said that ANTi was a discount. I simply pointed out the flaw in your argument. Joke's on you though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now do you understand? And even more, the copies were paid for, 25 million dollars paid for, so again not similar More so, even with the free copies, Joanne is only selling 1K more per week over a year old album that hasn't been half as promoted as Joanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
