Teenage Dream sold like 60 million singles worldwide.
And 6.5M albums, it's certainly comparable to 1989 and Fearless by the sheer amount of singles sold.

1. Just making sure we're on the same page.
2. How so?
And no matter how many dates, the point still stands. Profit is profit and Katy has stadium dates yet to be played.

The PWT would've crushed RED even more if she did multiple stadiums in NA and Oceania too

It outgrossed it, she could've done stadiums if she wanted to.

If JAF really sold 800k singles than that is still a small lead since Perfume sold 260k. That's 140k Lead in single sales.

@140k single sales trumping 150k album sales and 70M + gross

Lotus did not sell more than 500k like I said and BJ sold 650k.

There is no difference



1989 Tour will prevail

Am done.

Crushed?

It's so far up by about $3m and won't hit $200m total. Red would have grossed way more with as many dates, and the 1989 tour will gross more regardless.

BRITNEY SPEARS & IGGY AZALEA - Pretty Girls: 13.980 (- 12.273)

Losing like half its airplay

Ha.
We'll see.

You can't be serious.

Red did 150m with 86 dates
PWT did 153m with 106 dates

Imagine if she did so many stadium dates in NA and Oceania?

PWT might gross around 200m so don't count it out yet.

It's called the rolling effect, every song experiences it.

Imagine if Taylor did twenty more dates if we're throwing out hypotheticals. she'd still win

She'd gross $184M and still gross less than the PWT.

Katy album total = ~13.5M (age 30)

Taylow album total = 33M+ (age 25)

So we've established Taylor not at her peak can gross more per date than Katy at her peak?

Can't wait for 1989 tour

True, but that's a lot of airplay to lose. It'll have a mediocre run at pop radio. Probably will struggle to enter top 15, if lucky.

She'd gross more than PWT did with the same amount of dates, though...

Like, the metric for success for these larger tours should be average gross, and Taylor's is higher.

And you are basing this on....?

what makes you think Katy's making 200M+?

she's got like ten dates left
