^ It`s been out since October and ever since "JD" blew up, it`s sales haven`t increased that much. When "No air Air" came out Jordin Sparks was flying down the Billboard 200. When "No Air" started blowing up Jordin Sparks increased dramatically. There is saying as of now because shortly after The Fame came out "Just Dance" went Top 20 then Top 10. I don`t she will even go gold because she`s a singles artist. She`ll need to release like five singles to get there. FYI I won`t even comment on Lady GaGas album sales next week.

An album isn't determined a flop until it's run has ended. And considering The Fame debuted in Top 20, fell out quickly and has managed to resurface and looks like it'll continue to rise, there's no saying "as of now".
An example of a confirmed flop is Christina's album. Just a tiny bit over 200k, and no sign of moving back up. I'm pretty sure your figure would change if GAGA was already over 200k. Another fact to consider is you know next week it'll surpass 200k. What will you say then? An album that hasn't even sold 220k?

Well said.

Well, Lady GaGa has a bit to prove with this album...I think it will go Gold 500k+

I agree, I dont think she`ll have longevity, look at Flo Rida, "Low" peaked at # 1 for 10 weeks, "Elevator" peaked at # 16, " In The Ayer" went top 10 but his album only sold 360k.

But FloRida is a **** act and Lady Gaga is a class act. There's a difference.

He's doing extremely good, another week in top 20, hopefully top 10 at the end. He's now no5 on iTunes (no4 yesterday).

I can't wait to see Some Hearts reach 7 million. Fergie really deserves 4x platinum but it'll probably never happen. The Dutchess might reach 4 million in sales in the next couple years but her label won't pay to have it certified...just like Love.Angel.Music.Baby all over again.  And it sucks that digital album sales don't count toward certification because they weren't "shipped" ...By the way, if anyone's got updates on Gwen's sales I'd love to know. I think LAMB is past 4 million and TSE is near 1.7 million but that's just an estimate.

...It's worth pointing out that by the end of this decade, Norah Jones Come Away With Me will have surpassed Baby...One More Time (at least in SoundScan sales).

The Fame will never go Platimun. GaGa is like the female Flo-Rida Great singles High peaks but low album sales. Maybe Gold, I'll Keep my fingers crossed with platinum though.
