So with the new RIAA rules I did the math and updated Gaga's sales and this would the new numbers
Just Dance - 8,357,926
Poker Face - 8,487,035
LoveGame - 3,548,290
Paparazzi - 4,697,373
Bad Romance - 10,542,594
Telephone - 5,297,988
Alejandro - 4,473,182
Born This Way - 4,966,130
Judas - 2,559,372
The Edge of Glory - 3,394,686
Yoü and I - 2,751,317
Marry the Night - 1,067,770
I only used YouTube views from the respective music videos and made rough guesses for singles sales that haven't been updated in a long time like Alejandro, LoveGame, TEOG, etc.
numbers may be a little higher when other streaming sources such as Spotify etc are counted
For Born This Way I only took into account music video views although the Audio video (which is put in private) had well over 70 million views which would bump its sales to 5.6 million aprox.
also I'm assuming RIAA counts global views (otherwise Bad Romance and Baby wouldn't be diamond)

Y'all also have to realize that the new RIAA certifications only count for the US, which means Bad Romance is now Gaga's biggest US hit. Poker Face still outsold Bad Romance on a WW scale and is this still her biggest hit WW and overall. So maybe Remixed won't be sad after all.

It'll probably be 8x Platinum when it does.
Finally "Bad Romance" is proven to be the victor.

Welp, poor Poker Face.
I'll eventually update these new certifications. Congratulations to Bad Romance on being Gaga's biggest hit.

I've updated the OP with VEVO certifications and Awards. It's still a work in progress.
I also want to make a huge compilation of general records that Gaga has broken so if you have any please share!
Also, I'm going to eventually try to incorporate Retro's Japanese receipts. It may just be that Gaga has sold past 108M records worldwide.  |
Here are some:
- The only artist in the digital era to top the 6 million sales mark with her first two singles ("Just Dance" and Poker Face").
- The first artist in the history of Billboard's Pop Songs chart to notch four #1 hits from a debut album ("Just Dance", "Poker Face", "LoveGame" and "Paparazzi").
- The Monster Ball was the named by Billboard the biggest tour ever by a debut headlining artist.
- "Born This Way", the album, debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart with 1,108,000 copies sold in its first week, according to Nielsen SoundScan. It's only the 18th album to sell a million in a week since SoundScan began tracking sales data in 1991. Additionally, Gaga is only the fifth woman to notch a million-plus week.
- "Born This Way" set a music industry record by becoming the fastest single in history to reach sales of 1,000,000 copies (five days after its February 11th release). On iTunes, the song debuted at the top spot in 14 countries, including the U.S., and hit #1 in all 23 iTunes stores worldwide its first week out.
- The first artist to hit the 20 million mark in the category of digital single sales according to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
- The 6th solo artist with most consecutive top 10 singles in the US (11 in total): "Just Dance" (#1), "Poker Face" (#1), "LoveGame" (#5), "Paparazzi" (#6), "Bad Romance" (#2), "Telephone" (#3), "Alejandro" (#5), "Born This Way" (#1), "Judas" (#10), "The Edge of Glory" (#3) and "Yoü and I" (#6).
- The first artist to achieve more than 1 billion views of her videos on YouTube.
- Most nominations ever in a single VMA season (13 nominations for the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards).
- The first person in Twitter history to ever hit 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32 and 33 million followers. Today she is followed by more than 37 million people, being only behind Justin Bieber.
- The most followed person on Google+, with over 6.5 million followers.

It would have definitely trumped 'TiK ToK' with the new Billboard rule.

I've been a little busy with school lately but I'll try to update the new certifications. I might even just make a separate section for them.

I've updated the OP with RIAA cetifications and Metacritic scores. I only have Bad Romance under the certifications because I'm waiting for her other songs to have their certifications updated. I wouldn't want to put "Poker Face - 8x Platinum" until it's actually truly certified.
I also plan on adding Dance and Pop Songs chart peaks under the new Chart Accomplishments tab soon.
By the way, did y'all know that the Monster Ball tour special received an 81 on Metacritic?

Hmm I didn't even think of that. It would have been #1 for weeks considering the record-setting pace it accumulated views those first 3-4 months.
