Why are you all comparing LFN which was a 5TH (FIFTH) single off an era that already had other 4 #1's to TEOG which was basically a second single

You're right, but still it wasn't that big.

This thread is about when did Katy become bigger than Gaga, and if you really think that there's any other era besides TF in which Gaga was bigger than Katy there's no point

Will Gaga ever be bigger than Katy again? Will she chart higher again? Will Monsters only be able cling to the past eras from now on?

And by how many copies did BTW outsell TD? 100k? Katy's outselling it this month so no worries

Yep, GaGa is bigger than Katy, she sold more albums, sold more records, grossed more in tour, won more awards, more acclaimed, more impactful, etc.. sorry!

Until TD outsell BTW, you can get back to me

I don't get why all of acting like she's bigger than GaGa overall? GaGa sold 27/28m albums, sold more records, grossed more in tour, won more awards, more acclaimed, etc..

Cool but I didn't say anything about the albums or the tour, just that E.T. was bigger than Born This Way, which it was.

I'd agree, but Gaga was still bigger in 2011/2012, hence why she toured stadiums and had a gross tour 4x higher than what the California Gurls Tour grossed.

Cool but OP says when did Katy start becoming bigger than Gaga, not when she was clearly bigger in all aspects (which she's still not even today). In some aspects of her career, such as E.T., a fourth single, out-performing a lead single, is a significant moment and one that could be argued as the beginning of Katy's raise above Gaga.

Which clearly she was not bigger than GaGa in 2011/2012, in 2011 GaGa sold more albums and in 2012 GaGa grossed more in tour

180m with less 100 dates

+ also GaGa earned more money than Katy in 2011/2012.

The way people cling to CDT amazes me!

It had 1.2M attendance (2nd biggest by a female in 2011), it only grossed $60M because of the prices.

She's charging more now and her gross is amazing, imagine it she charges even more? No one would be safe, especially after how the Super Bowl probably boosted her status.

LFN was bigger than TEOG, wish people would stop saying the opposite! Thanks.

Can a monster explain what was unsuccessful about the tour? Isn't a 1.2 Million attendance more than a recent tour? Pretty sure it sold out more to.
