Yes, Rihanna is more of a digital single queen because she's been in the industry for 7 years and release more singles per era than any other girls. So this achievement is kind of neutral in nature... nothing to really be proud of as it's supposedly be that way.
I feel like these navies have started bat******** everywhere coz they finally get a #1 album after 7 years. stop.

Clearly doing the most right now... obviously I know that, but you don't put the song in each catagory... you only put it in the highest catagory... so pokerface would stay in the inflated 14mil catagory and would not be shown in the lessor catagories like the inflated 12mil catagory, nor the inflated 10mil catagory... Billboard would never so why should an ireleavant..?? what kind of reach  yes you are done... good day bro

No, she is not.
She is benefiting from releasing tons of singles every year, so of course her sales are gonna be higher.
If we take average sales per single, Katy and Gaga both have much more impressive sales.
That's just simple logic, people.

I mean C'mon... lets be real here.... 11 songs above or about to go 3xPlatinum or more.... Just because her songs arent massive sellers doesnt make her sales less impressive...
She is just consistent and her career is based on multiple hits instead of few massive ones

Nope Katy is.
I mean just the fact that Where Have You Been has yet to outsell You and I despite having over three times it's airplay shows Rihanna's digital power isn't that good. Radio gives her songs high peaks.

See "Only Girl" "We Found Love" "Diamonds"
To be the queen u dont have to rule 1 continent u have to dominate the world! So it doesnt matter if Rihanna hasn't multiple 5M seller in the US, she is ruling the whole world since 8 years!
look at Gaga & Katy they latest singles flopping harder than Ciara.
I mean does the flops Edge of Glory & Marry The Night say u something?  |

Why even bother trying to come for someone's english skills when this is ATRL... most of the guys on here struggle to string compete sentences together properly. If you don't have a valid point that contributes to this discussion then use the exit thread button accordingly

No.
I mean, Poker Face, Just Dance, Rolling in the Deep Tik Tok, Firework, E.T, California Gurls, Love Story, Someone Like You, Bad Romance, Hot N Cold, Single Ladies and Party in the USA have sold more than We Found Love, Disturbia and Umbrella.
Gaga and Katy can be bigger than her if they release 10 singles per year like Rihanna does.
