Katy will sell 2 million, since she's this global icon. I mean she is the female MJ, so it shouldn't be hard to sell over 1.5 or 2 million in one week. She could probably do it with only 4 days.

Mess.

I'm dead serious about this. Katy is arguably the biggest star in the US. TD sold almost 3 million copies in the US.

It's nowhere near 3 million

No. Britney's album was released so many years ago, when it was not that difficult to sell that, and Born This Way had the Amazon discount, which now it doesn't count for Billboard, and Lady GaGa has a lot of fans... Katy is big because the GP loves her.

Taylor came close though.

I love and adore Katy Perry, but there's no way she's going to open with more than 300K in her first week.

I am a stan, but I am also not delusional. I am sure her lead single (and follow up) will smash out of the gate. That won't be enough to push her over 500K.

If Capitol/EMI does a 'Red'-type promo campaign, then MAYBE.

Promo wouldn't work for anyone though, you'd have to be REALLY huge in the US and you'd have to guarantee that you're gonna sell a LOT to make-up for the money wasted on the promo.

Cap10Planet

Maybe 700k, like what HITS predicted for Teenage Dream.

Vini

She may have another huge successful era singles-wise, she ain't doing more than 500k in her opening week tho... I'm being generous with 500k... Her album may end up a good seller tho, in the longer run...

Maybe she can do Femme Fatale numbers...

I'd say Femme Fatale.... As Blackout still did better than FF...

Rolland

Yes, of course. She will sell 3 million.
