I find it hard to comprehend it when people say "she was coming off a huge era"
That is probably applicable for the single, but people say that BTW was a huge turn off, and then she pissed even more people off with Judas and the album artwork, like, surely thats enough to put the causal fans off? But no, the Queen of Pop still went on to sell 7 million copies of her "flop" album despite practically pissing off every demographic in some way
. Lady Gaga's selling power increased in terms of album sales (up 1 million in sales from TFM)
Not comparing the re-release of an album (The Fame Monster as an EP was only released in America and a couple of other countries) to a full studio album. We all know Born This Way did worse, just look at the amount of weeks it spent in the Top 20 everywhere. And hadn't The Fame sold around 4-5m before The Fame Monster was released, which would mean even then Born This Way decreased from it?

This is not about the decrease in Gaga's album sales, but her album sales compared to other artist with, for example, 5 #1s.

America, Japan, China, Australia, Chile, Colombia, and the entirety of Europe, but who's really counting?
