I feel like it's more complicated than we think. I figure they have to contact Spotify, YouTube, and other streaming sites to get 100% accurate totals, which might take time to get. IDK.
I mean, they sure wasted no time making sure C2C was certified.
Maybe they'll do it before the next era so they can brag about it in a press release or something.
I'm sure it is, especially with streaming, but I mean we have the sales and yet, for example, Poker Face's certification still indicates it's only sold 5,000,000 copies when we know for a fact through Billboard that it's already over 7,000,000.
And I'm so, so incredibly proud of and happy for her for winning the first Icon Award from the Songwriters Hall of Fame. It's so nice when she's recognized for her artistry.
they can't catch a break, first she's a flop and critically panned and then her Jazz album goes #1 and win a Grammy, then she's irrlevent and nobody cares about her she goes and steal the spot and being the most talked about star in the biggest event in the entertainment business and they continued trying with her legacy being tarnished and now she's receiving her 2nd ICON award but this time for her songwriting.
DJ Snake is becoming huge. Didn't Gaga work with him on BTW? Always ahead of time
WAIT I never knew this. I was listening to Lean On and was thinking Gaga should work with DJ Snake (and Diplo). But she already has. Just looked there, he has credits on DWUW too apparently.
Gaga is always plucking these DJs from obscurity starting their careers, going onto have solo careers and become go to producers (RedOne, Zedd, and now DJ Snake, etc...)

Why can't I shake the feeling that there's going to finally be a Nicki feature on LG5?
I get really good vibes towards the project, though. They're keeping stuff close to the chest and she's finally working with highly experienced producers again. If she manages to screw this up, then I dunno.
Gaga's SNL was flawless and her vocal performances (Applause acoustic on Sukkiri, Gypsy on AMPYA, DWUW on Alan Carr and the AMA's, Lush Life on PBS, Bang Bang, etc.) have been so on point in the ARTPOP and Cheek to Cheek eras and then top top it off with her Grammy win and performance and then the best vocal performance of her career at the Oscars...and then the AHS news. What an amazing run lately
