Actually, Madonna's jazz album I'm Breathless has sold 13.2 million equivalent album units, and her catalog includes not one but two Academy Award–winning songs: "Sooner or Later" and "You Must Love Me." OT: As other members have mentioned, Lady Gaga failed to surpass her idol, Madonna, but she still did pretty well for herself.

No hits, just three of the biggest pop songs of the past 20 years ? She also has "The Climb" (7× platinum) and "We Can't Stop" (8× platinum) btw, that's five solo songs nearing Diamond status, plus a dozen platinum singles to choose from. That's more than enough for a 13-minute set. It's wild how some of you keep downplaying Miley while Jay-Z's "classics" are pulling 46K streams and the average American can't name a Bad Bunny song. Different audiences, sure but if the average hip-hop fan knows Jay-Z's hits, the average pop fan / millennial definitely knows Hannah Montana, lol.

#1 is correct, that's all that matters.

Celebration (Translucent Light Blue) is now available for pre-order. Includes 10 of her biggest hits on 1 LP. https://www.amazon.com/-/es/Madonna/dp/B0HLP4QXMS/ An exclusive red / pink splatter variant is coming to her website too.

CONFESSIONS II

Off One Step Away

I was surprised to see the mixed reception for this one... and then I wasn't. Further proof of a deep generational chasm that divides ATRL into two camps; the thirtysomething pop sophisticates with 15 to 20 years of top-shelf pop consumption to their name, and an unruly kid crew with Tate McRae avatars and tributes to Olivia Rodrigo in their signatures. It's not that the latter generation is a lost cause entirely, but they've clearly never heard a "Madonna" — that is, they've never encountered a voice quite as distinctive as Madonna's. "But I know Madonna! Rebel Heart was the first album I bought!" First off, ask for a refund. And no, you don't know Madonna, you know a very stilted and subdued version of the iconic performer. The Madonna of "Bring Your Love" is Madonna as Madonna is intended to sound. She very skillfully vacillates between a range of tones; she nasally, then guttural, then grainy, then nasally again, then delicate. (And yes, that's how she's supposed to do it.) She's sultry. She's goofy. She's sounds slightly absurd. She's fully engaged. She's expressive in ways that "technically superior" vocalists just aren't. She is brilliant. You have no idea how brilliant she is. This is the probably purest attempt Madonna has made to harness some of that ineffable charm that made her early work so irresistible. I adore it.

Because they genuinely believe another pop girl's flop will somehow make Katy's collapsing career look less embarrassing by comparison . After all these years, they still don't get it. The awful music was only part of the problem. Katy was dragged because she desperately chose to work with her former friend's alleged rapist in a shameless attempt to resurrect her career and still managed to flop harder than ever. On top of being talentless, Katy has no integrity. No matter how poorly Miley sells, I can't imagine her ever stooping that low. She released a harmless album produced by her boyfriend vs. Katy collaborated with an alleged sexual abuser to try to score a hit. Bass Persuades had mixed reviews vs. 143 is literally the worst-reviewed album of all time by a female artist on Metacritic. Miley remains a talented, multiple-time Grammy winner vs. Katy is nothing of the sort. They are not the same.
