Wow, ARTPOP is not Platinum in a single European country yet all the people of those countries decided to forgive Gaga for that disaster of an album and bought all available tickets to her shows to see her
This is why Europe is so loyal to many singers
So Gaga did not pay some organization to certify her album, big woop, they still meet the requirements. Not everybody needs to purchase their accolades like Katy (her star on the walk of fame )
Gaga wins Grammys & Songwriting awards based on her own merit.
Justina's single is going to do well. He just needs to make singles using overly autuned falsetto vocals over a dance beat (like WAUN) and he'll be set for a year or too. CL will rise because of this.
Katy has never sold more than 4 million albums in a year but Gaga has sold 5 million+ in multiple years
Katy is kind've the definition of 'one-era wonder'
