The Fame now now sold over 4M copies in the U.S. after a shaky start.
Quote:
"Released to little fanfare in August 2008 (it sold just 24,000 copies in its first week here in the States), The Fame slowly began to burrow itself into the public consciousness, thanks to an unending stream of singles — "Just Dance," "Poker Face," "LoveGame," "Paparazzi" — artistic videos and ambitious, eye-popping live shows. What started as a well-kept secret eventually became a worldwide phenomenon." - MTV: http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/163...-grammys.jhtml
