I don't know why you're so obsessed.mp3, but Katy Perry is obviously a singles artist and Mariah is an album artist.
Obviously, Katy wins. To put it in perspective;
Katy has only sold around 15 million albums, Mariah has sold ~150m.

Katy by far
Mariah her single sales are underwhelming considering the amount of #1's + the xtimas song did not sell 10m lmao it's not even 3x plat in the US based on pure sales and it was super local. 7m is a max

Mariah and it is not even close like it would be absolutely ridiculous to genuinely vote for Katy.

Why do you keep making these threads? What's your issue with Mariah?
Katy's singles have sold more on average due to the climate in which she came up, however Mariah has classic songs under her belt (as in, actual classics), two songs of the decade and AIWFCIY is more culturally significant than Katy's entire catalog, so it's whatever.
Keep up the hard work...

Probably Mariah but that's not to say Katy doesn't have huge singles, after all she has far bigger singles than any other girl from her generation.
