[Maroonx]

born to die deserves diamond status x

[WildAmerican]

iconic debut (btd) and one of the best albums of all time (NFR!) 

[suburbannature]

 the way she crossed over into the mainstream is so legendary 

 

Three platinum albums now, phew

[Zaram]

But 5x Platinum is criminal. I would expect it to be close to Diamond

[Walk_Away21]

Slay Now give us that damn BTD sequel!

This. Maybe it's eligible higher, but 5x Platinum after 10 years of charting is insane, album sales are in the pits

Honestly if you had told me BTD would be certified 5 x Platinum in 12 years i wouldn't believe it back in 2012. When you think about how it was first received, this is amazing. She never had huge sales weeks...just incredible stability. I can see it reaching Diamond in the next 15 years or 20 for sure. 

[KatyPrismSpirit]

classic of the 21st century. talk about an IMPACTFUL album

Certifications usually count SPS

This is amazing. Keep in mind, she initially wanted BTD to go Gold at some point so it's probably surreal even for her.

Yeah expected a bit more but still a classic.

[bad guy]

I expected at least 7x platinum given how it's a vinyl staple but maybe this is without the Paradise EP included.

[G.U.Y_Del_Rey]

Her groundbreaking debut album and her best album slaying

Paradise tracks are counted but not the EP sales. Outside of US it was huge in 2013/12.

Teenage Dream without track downloads is barely at 5M units. Y'all forget that only one of her album tracks charted in HOT100.

[UnusualBoy]

People expecting more when its initial run was very lackluster. Remember the album had lukewarm reception, it gained acclaimed as time passed by so the fact that it keeps getting units is amazing and you know streaming helps you in the long run.
