Nothing inflated, it's simple logic. Her reported US single sales only make up 40-45% of her global sales, according to her five IFPI entries and SoundScan sales

Just Dance sold 7.7M in the IFPI 2009 tracking period, with 3.8M (49%) sales from US
Poker Face sold 9.8M in the IFPI in the IFPI tracking period, with 4.2M (43%) sales from US
Bad Romance sold 9.7M in the IFPI 2010 tracking period, with coming from the 3.6M (only 37%) in the US
Telephone sold 7.4M in the 2010 IFPI tracking period, only 2.6M (35%) came from the US within that tracking period.
Born This Way sold 8.2M in the 2011 IFPI tracking period, and only 3.4M (41%) sales came from the US
Considering she sold 52M singles in the US and that her singles sell far more outside the US according to the IFPI, she has obviously sold 125M+ singles_ringtones. Don't be so bitter
Billboard is as official as it gets anyway (especially for singles which aren't shipments unlike album sales) so I don't know why I should prove this in the first place

I didn't realize LORDvine was held to such high standards.
1 single flopping after 9 consecutive platinum/multi-platinum top 10 smashes. Tragic.
The only hit this era is Sugar. All of the others were payola-driven singles that didn't sell ****. Their album BOMBED and sold only 2 million WW despite his desperate attempts of promotion, like showing his flat ass on a video. Go tell him to squat.
I can't believe how ****ing retarded and hypnotized our generation is cuz of pop culture
we should be having a revolution or something but our dumbasses see celebrities as Gods kids rather have an instagram photo of their breakfast become popular than be progressive journalists or engineers

Sam Smith really is rather mediocre. I only really used him on La La La (and Latch, to an extent), and that was when I thought he was a middle-aged black man.
