 I'm thinking that majority of the error is in LFN thru TOTGA.

9)	Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) 	 6,500,000  
10)	Wide Awake	 5,600,000  
11)	Part of Me 	 5,200,000  
12)	The One That Got Away 	 4,200,000  
13)	Waking Up in Vegas 	 3,500,000  
14)	Thinking of You 	 1,800,000  
15)	Unconditionally	 1,600,000  
 
And I don't mean I just whipped up these estimations or pulled them out of my ass; it takes a long time for me to do global estimates like these. 
 
Basically I used models of Roar, IKAG, and Cali Gurls' sales in the us and applied the approximate growth rates to their IFPI sales to derive a global total, and from there used a model to estimate global sales of each other track by summing all the known, verified sales of every track and deriving with that a multiplier from the aforementioned three IFPI entrants' statistics.

 Well going by the "ESTIMATIONS" that Retro posted the Singles are at 112.45 M 
And add the album sales Is is possible that she has passed 110M records.  
but it is possible that the singles are over estimated so we still need an official confirmation.

 E.T seems to be the only fishy one IMO, i don't see that selling more than 2 million outside the states

 even if it's overestimated by 10m (5m i would say) her total sales are 102m singles & 14m albums = 116 million records worldwide so far
 
EVERYTHING AS A LEAD ARTIST............................................  .
 
and her 3rd era is not even over yet!!
