because albums still make more money than singles, why do you think labels still push hard for them

Sis the certificications don't lie. Don't even discuss with them, Taylor is outselling Katy in almost every country

Their claims of ''more global'' are ALL fake

Roar reached the top 10 in Japan and their charts rarely feature Western acts (I know Taylor slays Japan but still).

Oh, and Katy is a nonfactor in Latin America? Yeah, that's why she needed to act more dates to her Mexican leg of the tour! And her songs smash hard in Latin America too! But ok.

The post I quoted said Taylor was bigger in EVERY country. God, some of you are annoying today

Both of their albums sold around the same outside of the US. Katy singles are bigger worldwide, hence why Katy is more global. Taylor can have her album sales in the US, get what I'm saying now?

Now honey don't act like your first post didn't say Taylor was even the biggest in the US he was wrong but you were too

Not Mexico and Sweden being the standards for being global

Taylor is bigger than Katy in Asia, Australia/Oceania, North America, UK, and hell even Antarctica!

Taylor ain't bigger than Katy in Oceania nor UK, I give you the rest.

So no Taylor stan accepted my challenge?

Of course you wouldn't because you'd expose your fave who is not number one.

I don't see why they wouldn't be. People buy music there. Any country outside the home country of the artist indicates how global the artist is.

We already showed you the list where Taylor outsold Katy like everywhere, but you wanna focus on those two countries? Ok

DIAMONDZ

Being big in North America and Europe equals global now?
I thought you had to be big in the other continents too, like Asia, Africa, South America, Australia.

She is, though. She might not be #1 in every country but she's #1 overall.

Why on earth wouldnt google trends be a valid statistic?

Just because Taylor is less than 5% of Rihanna's and Gaga's total popularity doesn't make it invalid, in fact, it makes it perfectly realistic with my views of her popularity in my country.

You try too hard.

Beyonce is still on top, atleast in the US. Call me when/if 1989 sells 617k in 3 days (it won't happen)

Actually RED sold over 500,000 in ONE day

1989 May too

YR, I love Taylor so much but stans like you make me turn away from her. Good job. Alienating the casual fans just like the Monsters did.

In the US? Yes. In the rest of Anglo-Saxon countries? Debatable. In Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Africa? Nope.

So the answer is simply no

Taylor is bigger than Katy in all of those markets

RED - 2.1m outside US
PRISM - 1.7m outside US, she's not gonna get to 2m tbh so Taylor wins.

Shake It Off was just #1 for 4 weeks worldwide though

Except Katy is huge in Latin America and especially in Mexico.

They don't

Two 10m selling singles are much better than say, a 5m selling album.
And it's the tours that make the most money.

Not the swifties becoming the new monsters. Like stan like fave I guess

Katy is really big in latin markets, at least way bigger than Taylor. Not sure about Asia.

my thoughts exactly. I bought Red and a few songs off Fearless, I love Taylor (although I admit every song off 1989 has been terrible thus far)
