HTNGOD went 20 and reached platinum. Not a big accomplishment but not a total disaster either. I think RnR could do better if it has enough exposure.

IFPI year starts in November and WFL started smashing after the video, which was released in late October, so it didn't miss out much.

Global top selling digital singles of 2012

1 CARLY RAE JEPSEN - Call Me Maybe 12.5M
2 GOTYE - Somebody That I Used To Know 11.8M
3 PSY - Gangnam Style 9.7M
4 FUN - We Are Young 9.6M
5 MAROON 5 - Payphone 9.1M
6 MICHEL TELÓ - Ai se eu te pego 7.2M
7 NICKI MINAJ - Starships 7.2M
8 MAROON 5 - One More Night 6.9M
9 FLO RIDA - Whistle 6.6M
10 FLO RIDA - Wild Ones 6.5M

Less than 6.5m in 2012, so it most likely hasn't topped BTW (it is slowly catching up having more longevity though).

you're beating around the bush

Gaga's only released less than a handful of images on a site that's meant to be for her fans only

[RichGirlPlanet]

On this years list she placed below a washed up latina.

Stating Gaga isn't top 5, kinda makes one lose all credibility in a stan argument.
A couple of pages back I saw some Rihanna stans coming for Gaga's writing. Funnily enough I found this post on Reddit soon after. Even the GP sees her as the trash she really is.

Rihtard, her song writing skills are so unparalleled

A few weeks back, the folks at Planet Money tried to break down the economics of Katy Perry's massively successful album with its five hit singles. Specifically, they wanted to figure out how much money her label made from such a big success. What comes out is a step-by-step description of the massive inefficiencies of the major label recording system. There are things like paying producers $100,000 per song they produce on the album. Then there's all the payola... er "special promotions" to get the songs played on radio so much. In the end, Planet Money calculates that Perry's label, EMI, probably made somewhere around $8 million in profit from Perry's music sales in the US. That's not topline revenue, but bottomline profit. That's not bad per se, but for an album with five hit singles and which was clearly one of the most successful albums in 2011, you begin to see why the labels are struggling.

Rihanna has sold more records almost double that of Gaga, more listened to, more liked, more streamed, more copied, has influenced more people, bigger fashion icon, hotter, younger etc.

Where is the competition?

Gaga remains more powerful than rihaha

[Halien4Life]

Brinty's promo for her new album has been INASNE

I changed my mind.


Now go back to denying the fact that Gaga is better than 5head.
