She has to sell 1M. If It can't reach that amount, I think it would be disappointing, not for the fans, but for her team because with that insane promo, they are really expecting the album at least sells 1M the first week.
EXACTLY!! I expect at least 1 million considering the promo..
1 million is not enough, I say at least one million and half in the US and the same worldwide! The Fame debuted with 24,000 copies sold, she was unknown. But now, she is the international phenomenon LADY GAGA, so as far as I'm concerned, this is like starting-over again, THE album that has a strong foundation behind. It is her time. Also, considering that she first talked about it at the MTV VMAs with the Born This Way acapella snippet. IT HAS BEEN EIGHT MONTHS of intensive awareness, appearances and promotion here and there. I wish her the best & I think she can pull it off!
Add to the list, she took over Zara stores in Europe & Zara is one of the biggest brands & most fashionnable ones in Europe! I've been told by my friend. Lady Gaga "Born This Way" T-shirts for both men and women & they non stop play the album.
I expected that PopBoi and Lem couldn't resist it and had to troll all over the place, and then decided to get banned before the official first-week numbers drop.
first single must be #1 for at least 7 weeks - Born This Way failed this
second single must peak at #9 or above - Judas failed this
third single cannot start with the word 'the' - The Edge of Glory failed this
second promotion single cannot be at #17 on iTunes on May 22nd 2:33 PM PST - surprisingly, Hair failed this
As you can see, the single expectations I had made before the single even came out have all failed. I don't even wanna get started on my album expectations.
