She did say it barely missed it, I was hoping it would get increase sales in it's 20th anniversary, then I realized that was already this week hjkl

Japan - November 15

Australia, Germany, Spain, UK - November 17

US, Canada - November 18

 

Not aure why fan accounts were celebrating early. Argentina isn't a major music market. So there's still time, especially with Toxic's Halloween boost and the boost Everytime has been getting.

Other Missing Certifications:

Scream & Shout - 3x Platinum - Should Be 6x Platinum - 5.8M units (7/24/23)

Hold Me Closer - N/A - Should Be Platinum - 1.2M (7/24/23)

Toxic - 6x Platinum - Should Be 7x Platinum - 6.9M (6/30/23)

 

She’s missing 5M in single certifications and 4.5M in album certifications. GH:MP should be Double Platinum and The Essential Britney Spears is Gold (it is the first album she put Scream & Shout on so it breezed past Gold instantly).

 

Other Songs About to Hit New Milestones:

My Only Wish This Year - About to Be Platinum - 940k (5/21/23)

Womanizer - About to Be 6x Platinum - 5.7M (4/22/23)

Pretty Girls - About to Be Platinum - 800k (12/28/22)

Perfume - About to Be Gold - 465k (7/24/23)

Slumber Party - About to Be Gold - 400k (12/2/22)

 

I hope they just wait until 2025 and then do a big certification again. She’d jump by some 30M units at that point which would be huge.

Toxic is just that monster hit that keeps getting bigger. Cannot say I'm surprised when it is a timeless song. I mean that intro is what made me an instant Stan.

It's crazy how Britney's longevity is overrated, her fans think she's on the same level as Beyoncé and Madonna but not at all.

I know you're a troll, but literally no one in the Army claims she's a streaming force, also she debuted in 1998, not 2009.

This might be the dumbest take I've seen on ATRL, and that's saying something. Britney's career is still bigger than Beyoncé's and neither of them are coming anywhere near Madonna.

 

Lady Gaga debuted in 2008 - three years before Spotify went global. She has released 5 studio albums (3 were solo), one soundtrack album and one EP since then. She has released 23 singles as a lead artist and one featured single. For artists that debuted in the 2000s, her streams are good, but nothing spectacular. 

 

Britney Spears debuted in 1998 - 13 years before Spotify went global. She has released two studio albums since then. She has released 10 singles since Spotify went global. For artists that debuted in the 1990s, her streams are among the best. She's literally one of the most streamed female artists to debut before the 2000s.

 

The fact that Gaga debuted a decade closer to the age of Spotify, has released over twice the material Britney has and has a better push on Spotify yet she's not even doubling Britney's streams when Britney's been on hiatus since 2016 except one new song she recorded  

[BreakinTheIce]

Should also be obviously noted the playlist reach too; Gaga has a label that tends to actually play the game with stuff like that. Britney's clearly doesn't

It's funny to see success stans of artists that are less successful than an artist they hate. Him and that AlexStexaul or whatever is always obsessing over Britney's stats only to get clocked every time.

 

OT: She's gonna average 1B+ streams for every studio album come May

This person is deranged. I saw his social medias and he is obsessed with Spears for some reasons. Terrifying.

 

Anyway, Britney's streams are good for someone that debuted in 98, is retired and never released during the streaming era and seeing Toxic getting 10M streams a week is veryyy impressive.
