no, but an artist is a flop when her current era/single shows an obvious decline compared to her previous era.

You can't really compare one artist to another unless they are in the same rank or "Calibre/ LAbel Priority"

Like how Perry is doing now compared to Gaga with similar "label prority" and promotion.


Also
For example, last era lead sold 1 million copies in 7 days.

New era lead sold 200, 000 in 7 days.

If that's not underperforming, i don't know what is.

I don't understand why its hard for some stanbase to accept that their fav is under performing.

always making excuses or accusing someone of calling their fav a "flop" when in fact, that is what happening.

Girl power, i love it
Congrats ladies

Roar is such a smash

After all the major promo she still can't beat Miley and Katy? Gaga her power.

Ahh, same people that said Applause was a flop, would barely gain any spots or drop out of the top 10, are now using the promo excuse to try to undermine the success

Glad that GaGa climbed with the VMA promo!

You mean practically the same promo those two got last night except for 2-3 extra 30 sec-1 min commercials with the song in the background?

Wrecking ball got promo? Did i miss it?

7. Same Love (feat. Mary Lambert) - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis

Is Applause really a success compared to her previous single tho?

An "Artist of Gaga's Calibre" should not be performing the same level as Ariana or Demi.

JT has done a LOT more damage after Beyonce in the Super Bowl... LEGEND!

That's not really the same level tho. Millions more people were exposed to the song compared to Katy and Miley.

Well she has been the center of hateness since TFM or even before that.
Just deal with it. Applause is doing pretty good now. She cant be at her highest all the time. she will slowly regain the public nterest. watch out the second single with zedd /madeon

people always trying to find another way to bring down gaga's success.. the song is top 3 and ya'll still at it. why do you care so much?

besides, its not like gaga just racks up #1's no problem, she only has 3 in her entire career. take a damn seat

Omg
