Selena Gomez matches Ariana's and Miley's pure sales, surprised?


Recommended Posts

Good for Selena but she had multiple digital variants offered throughout the week with exclusive tracks on each to try and push for the #1. Ariana and Miley didn't do that. Ariana's album could have sold 0 pure sales and she still outsold Miley and Selena's total units by 30k in just SEA units alone lmao.

Not only did Selena's team release different variants throughout the week instead of all in one day.   They also did pre order on vinyls and the album right when call me when you break up was released.   That alone secured sales, maybe both of the other teams can observe and learn from this strategy for there next releases.  I believe Miley's new album is already up for pre order, all she has to do ahead of release is sell SIGNED ONES! I know if this doesn't debut #1 the Stan's of both Miley and Ariana will use that to deflect Selena did a great strategy and LOCKED IN PURE SALES.  If the album doesn't debut #1 we clearly know why due to Carti releasing a deluxe in the middle of the tracking week to block her debut.  That's so fishy of the label, it could've waited to drop today.  They didn't want her to get #1 because Sel and Benny own this album masters.

The desperation and engagement tour paid off I see, a #2 is not that bad after all, next time we're aiming for Yours Truly first week units :clap3:

Now why are we talking about iTunes in 2025? :rip:

She's always been good first weeks, her fanbase may not be as big as Taylor's but she does have a huge fanbase the thing is that she CANT maintain that 2nd weeks or have longevity which proves what im saying.

 released ten digital variants of her album to buy and her fans saw it underperforming so they started a false narrative that interscope was sabotaging her when in reality noone cares                                                                                                                               :suburban:

Yes, that is surprising because we all know Selena is the Bebe Rexha of the three.

I don't like those kinda of threads but they tried to turn Selena into a punching bag recently so it is what it is

 

with that said, why would anyone be surprised? Selena is successful in everything that she does with her generalist career :bird: acting, business and ofc music. She is and she always will be.

I mean, variants or not, she still exceeded the expectations. We all thought she would sell 50k-75k and that a Top 5 would be a miracle. :dies:

 

Good for her though, I enjoyed the album and I expected nothing.

she's not called the female taylor swift for no reason :clap3:

People can try what they want with those variantes thing 

Nothing will erase this: 

2015 revival 117k

2020 rare 116k

2025 ISILYF 120k

5 years gap between albums

10 overall

and look at the stability. Im being repetitive cuz its such something hard to do. 
slayed pure sales and is stable on streaming 
 

a successful actress

a successful business woman

a successful singer


there's literally not even 10 current popgirls that are more stable than that

Let alone that is not only a singer

the album already sold 55k pure without the variants aka the same as miley's without having a "flowers"

 

selena had had like 7 digital variants + 3 physical album versions so 10 versions overall while  ariana's 11 versions

 

no matter how yall twist it she's doing great without having 2 #1 hits like ari and miley :tongue:

TBH, she would have sold more if it was only her on the covers and its advertised as her solo album. I'm happy for her that she found the right man in her personal life. But this album is just kind cringeworthy for me. It's like JLO and her whole love story with Ben.

You're definitely approaching your 30s

 

I would KMS if I was that old in the year of 2025

No because she pushed an insane amount of digital variants. Let's see how she compares to Miley and Ariana in her second week :chick1:

Flowers carried

Eh not really ?

 

Miley jumps genres too much. From dance (CBT) to rhythmic pop (Bangerz) to psychedelic (Dead Petz) to country (Younger Now) to rock (Plastic Hearts) to AC pop (ESV). She lost her fanbase each time she jumps to a new sound.

 

Selena mostly sticks to her blend of pop, dance, sometimes adding a bit of Latin or singer-songwriter. But the genre change is not as jarring as Miley. From Naturally in the beginning to CMWYBU / Don't Wanna Cry / Bluest Flame on the new album, it is a natural progress. It makes sense that Selena manages to keep a more consistent fanbase than Miley

Demi's last album sold 11k and was one of her peers too. Selena got her biggest debut in her career without a hit inside this album

Demi last album was rock and had 10m playlist support for one day and then 0. Selena literally having x100 times more promo. Good for Selena but not tear Demi because there's nothing to compare.
