All of you haters are shading your own faves without even knowing it. Shading her by saying she couldn't reach Britney's record only makes your fave's current opening numbers look even more pathetic.

Good! She doesn't deserve that record. This woman pulled every trick in the book and she couldn't even come for Britneys legendary record. Loves it.
1.3 + million sold and AT FULL PRICE. When Gaga gon' do it?

Enjoy your points!
Congrats to Gaga, now we have FIVE women who have sold 1 million+ in one week.
Britney Spears' "Oops!...I Did It Again" - (1,319,000)
Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" - (1,100,000)
Whitney Houston's "Bodyguard" soundtrack- (1,061,000); 1st to do it in May of 1991
Taylor Swift's "Speak Now" -1,047,000 million
Norah Jones' Feels Like Home (1,022,000).
It's kind of funny that 3/5 five albums by a female artist to sell over 1 million were done so in May. 
Edit: Nevamind, Whitney's 1 milli came over the '92 Christmas break.

Ahhh. The good old days when female popstars sold 1 million plus because people actually liked the music. Not because it was 99c. Thats what happens when you focus and take your time to really make an album which is amazing and filled with brilliant music. Instead of rush releasing a piece of **** album to capitalize on your hype and releasing a desperate song in order to capitalize on the gays and claiming that your piece of festering **** of an album is the greatest album of the decade.
Funny how Gaga's label didn't have confidence in the record. They know its complete and utter ****, so they sold it for 99c, hey, 99c is not much money to waste.
Born This Way is garbage and about 50% of those sales come from the 99c deal.
