The issue is that TFM sales CANNOT be proven unless Billboard somehow extracts info on how many TFM Deluxe discs were sold vs. the standard Fame. TFM Deluxe and The Fame are added together every week--it's what is at #3 this week. While TFM EP is by itself. Kirill is estimating that TFM Deluxe and TFM sold 1.5M combined because TFM Deluxe/Fame have sold about 1.7M since November 23 (when TFM EP and Deluxe were released) and you have to subtract a bit of The Fame sales, although not many because TFM is the album being promoted.
Either way, it has sold MORE than Rated R, although that really doesn't matter. GaGa is a constant presence in the media these days, she always has a hit song out, she should be doing well. Rihanna isn't doing nearly as much and none of her songs are SMASHES so she is doing fine.
