Romance wasn't a re-release though? Senorita was always on the album since the announcement. 

[selena_lavigne]

Witness has more streams than Joanne wow

[selena_lavigne]

Lust For Life 1B+ that was a classic and some of you hate to see it

Yes as will albums containing singles by other artists. Does Romance even have 1B without Senorita

I'm sure if you take Don't Start Now off of Future Nostalgia the numbers would be not good either. even with like 5 singles.

Romance has 6 TTH singles besides Senorita. FN had TWO without DSN and both nearing 300M+ each. that's four more.

 

Dua's 4th week outstreamed Camila's 1st and it still the most streamed female album daily after almost 4 months.

 

 

 

but sure, flop nostalgia.............................

Future Nostalgia: 56,864,236
Cool: 33,663,289
Physical: 290,953,611
Levitating: 46,342,102
Pretty Please: 35,392,439
Hallucinate: 42,596,125
Love Again: 32,273,823
Break My Heart: 282,062,976
Good In Bed: 27,259,124
Boys Will Be Boys: 23,110,433

870,518,158 streams

 

That is with 2 ACTIVE singles so far and another one upcoming not 5 like you said, about to cross 1 billion too. These are pretty good numbers without a smash hit with 1 BILLION streams.

[BlazingLovatic]

Demi will have 3 albums in this list

Percent of Album Streams

Don't Start Now: 53%

Señorita: 58%

 

And DSN's percent of FN streams will likely drop more as more singles are released. Also, Future Nostalgia only has 3 singles so far (the fourth is being released Friday), versus the 8 singles on Romance (including Señorita).
