Those pressed biatches can't handle the epicness of Queen Gaga.

Well, the article begs to disagree. I guess they are really serious about this cell-phone of the decade.

[Lipton]

Get those sales.

[Gummy Bunny]

I guess we just have to wait for opening week, to see if all this "desperation" will pay off.

but the article is from a site where anyone can post. I don't believe that $300-$800 smartphones can sell 200k in one week at one chain of stores

It takes no more than 150+ phones at every Best Buy in the US. Phones are a big deal here too.

Though, IDK how much I believe the article anyway. Just the idea of this is enough conversation.

I am not that familiar with the cell-phone market. But like the video gaming industry, the cell-phone industry is flourishing in America. Therefore, those numbers don't sound unreal to me.

X is taking notes.
Her comeback is imminent.

[PlasticInevitable]

Um, isn't the whole point of promo to "manipulate" sales?
I can't at people attacking Gaga and her team for actually taking initiative with inventive and inspired promotion.

It would be desperate cause Britney's album isn't selling. Gaga doesn't need to "manipulate" to outsell all the other girls. This is just her label doing everything in their power to secure that 1 million first week, assuming it's true of course.

If she didn't need this, she wouldn't do it. PERIOD. POINT BLANK.

Is it fair to say if the album sells, it's more due to her overly agressive, showing down your throat marketing approach rather than the quality of her body of work? It's a rhetorical question.

You're absolutely right. I just saw the article on Billboard and it's just a couple Samsungs and a HTC. The iPhone doesn't even sell 200k a week across the entire Americas. Dead @ The Examiner. Sensationalist jounalism at its finest.

Best Buy and Lady Gaga have also teamed up to give away free copies of the CD. Anyone who buys a mobile phone from the retailer beginning May 22nd through May 28th will get a free copy of Born This Way. Additionally, those who purchase the featured smartphones will receive both physical and digital copies of the album.

****, we've been punked, it's that biased guy, I didn't even realize it. I think this case is closed. He's the most biased reviewer i've seen in a while, it's sad.

Who THE **** said it was the 'album of the decade'?

It won't even be the album of the year basing off the songs I've heard so far....
