Both of the girls' recent eras underperformed, but they did get a couple of hit singles. On the Hot 100, Gaga got the #4 peaking, double platinum hit, Applause, as well as Top 10 hit Dope and #13 peaking Do What U Want. Ke$ha had the #2 peaking hit Die Young (also double platinum but close to 3 million), and now she has the #1 song in the country assisting Pitbull on Timber. Both ladies have also made headlines for the wrong reasons these past few months, Lady Gaga for her album falling below expectations (sales and hits) even with promo like The Voice, SNL, The American Music Awards, The VMAs, and an entire primetime Thanksgiving special, as well as her being into it with her former manager. Ke$ha has been making headlines for her fued with her boss Dr. Luke, as well as her eating disorder she is suffering from at the hands of Luke's verbal abuse. Gaga has sold around 500K with her immense promo, and Ke$ha has sold around 300K of Warrior with her limited promo. Who is the bigger US Celebrity at the moment?
