Her tour was a massive underperformance grossing only $69m WW. That is why people rightfully called her a singles artist. You cant come now, 14 years later in the streaming era and say she wasnt a singles artist The streams of all 8 singles added up to the album's total units. This does not mean she's now an album artist The album charted for 4 years on Billboard 200 before the SPS era (meaning no singles were added to the album units). 200k debut, 3M sold, 200 weeks charting = SMASH album 1M debut, 2M sold, 60 weeks charting = Frontloaded / flop album 6 1
Digitalism Posted July 1 Posted July 1 This is why hit singles are so important It took katy a while but those singles still being played today got the album to Diamond 1
Phaunzie Posted July 2 Posted July 2 She could get a full vajazzle with all those diamonds. Some faves could only dream. 1

She truly changed the music industry with her diamond album (which is difficult to get, not everyone has that).
spree Posted July 2 Posted July 2 Last Friday Night and Hot N Cold are literally right there, too. Pretty soon Teenage Dream will be a Diamond album with 5 Diamond singles.
