Plus Shallow will be so high up the all-time list

Ooop! OT: Massive!

Kiiiii! OT:

Born This Way at 940M, gaining 20M per month, it will hit 1 billion right around its anniversary in late May!

Legendary 12 club

Combined, Gaga’s Grammy-winning collab albums account for a smaller proportion of her total sales than Rihanna’s orphan tracks, the majority of which are collabs. So this argument is pointless and just shows that you’re in here to misread numbers and attempt to be shady. 2016 is so long ago... OT: Gaga’s 2018 release has skyrocketed past every female release since 25 other than Billie’s debut era

Gaga also now surpasses Pink to become the 15th best selling female artist (among all that are indexed by CM). Next up to pass is Cher in about 5M units.

Do you think removing non-solo would work well in the CSPC formula? Also, what?! Since 2011 Gaga has two albums above 4M. Keep up and try again. OT: Gaga only has 1.4M orphan sales. For some girls, it's literally their biggest portion of stats Guess collabs and duets are a bigger portion of hits to other artists totals than they think!

Rihanna was never a strong pure albums seller even at her peak like Gaga, and despite her having a few extra years and her peak at the better sales climate, it is BEYOND impressive Gaga surpasses Beyoncé in pure sales despite a massive head start by Bey. Gaga's commercial success is so downplayed (even in this ****ing thread) it's ridiculous.

Oh you're right, I forgot about Billie's debut era. Although the last update is 9M, we'll wait to see the CM increase. Also, last update Gaga's pure album sales surpassed Rihanna, are they now ahead of Beyoncé? I can't remember the CM total for her but I think it was mid-30-millions and Gaga now is at 36M.

Is there a reason the user you're entertaining isn't banned yet? They have several pressed as nails off-topic posts in here and one troll post where they admit that they're here to obsessively hate. OT: Lady Gaga's imperial era grows further and further (the biggest of its decade, so few managed that!) and ASIB is the biggest female era since 25 beating Rihanna and Taylor in less time

Sometimes re-releases and remixes really help an era and its worth it. Sometimes not. It's the biggest female release since 25.

Damn, I hoped Wham! would finally get their #1 too.

Good thing Gaga can release Diamond albums along with the ones you're clinging to in this thread (which happen to be more recent and as a result far more impressive to hit a much higher threshold faster!) But as I said in this thread from the beginning, which seems to have really ruffled the feathers of the person who will pick and choose when they follow what certification bodies credit to artists, an upper end of 2x platinum in five years is an impressive feat

812,643 was the update from mid-December. It'll become another 1M-seller.

Switzerland (all-time chart): #1 Ed Sheeran - Shape Of You - 122 weeks #2 DJ Ötzi - Ein Stern - 118 weeks #3 Ed Sheeran - Perfect - 115 weeks (tie) #3 Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper - Shallow - 115 weeks (tie) Shallow has a real shot at becoming the longest charting song ever in Switzerland!

Well in the last 10 years Gaga has managed her second 2x plat album, and her second diamond album in France. Quite the return on just two records! Also you seem mistaken. Joanne's follow up, as per the SNEP, is the Lady Gaga record A Star Is Born. You're a stickler for what certification bodies list as artists for albums, so I'm sure you're aware of that But glad Rihanna's finally hit that 2x plat mark, her un-scored tour date from France from that era looked like a rare sell-out from pics

Luckily Gaga's follow up scanned Diamond (her second diamond album in France), though a 2x Plat ceiling for an artist is nothing to discourage

It's not A Star Is Born-level smashing, but it's certainly good numbers after 5 years
