Yes.

She's already done enough to make sure she's remembered, but still not enough to guarantee longevity.

in pop culture NO

on atrl YES

As someone already pointed out, so is Katy Perry and she's coming off an era where she had 5 #1s and multiple other top 10 hits, not to mention the fact that her last release was only a year ago. Britney is #50 and she had a hit song out this year (and taking out Scream & Shout, she would be well out of the top 100 too), Beyonce is #71 and she's been all over the news this year as well as touring around the world.

Fact is, if you're not releasing new music, why would you expect that person to be high on the iTunes charts? It doesn't make any sense.

First: In my replies I was talking about Gaga's significant impact in her peak years and the so called "impact and power" she has.

Second: Were you really expecting her to be higher in that iTunes chart? Even knowing that Born This Way was realeased in May 2011? That Gaga hasn't made any public/TV appearances in months? That she simply disappeared from the social networks, including Twitter? As Mariano said, Katy Perry isn't on the top 100 either and she released 3 brand new songs 1 year after Gaga released her last album. What's your point? If Gaga had some #1 songs in flop countries like Malta, Cayman Islands, Barbados, Brunei Darussalam or Trinidad and Tobago (where a derisive number of copies is enough to get you to the top spot - maybe 10), she would definitely be inside the top 100 (maybe the top 50) since such spots would give her a lot of "points". Her decline wouldn't exist anymore, then? This ranking is irrelevant and proves basically nothing. If you really think it does...

Don't bother using logic against him, it's an utter waste of time and effort.

She obviously hasn't made as much of an impact as Madonna, Britney & Mariah... but yes, out of all her contemporaries she's the one that cemented her position in pop culture the most.

Everyone saying she hasn't cemented her position in pop culture at all is just being ridiculous.
