When Britney was new, she needed time to gain starpower to honey. How many records did Brit sell in 17 months...SURE HELL WASNT 40 million! None of her singles reached over 5 MILLION DOWNLOADS! None of her videos add up to 1 BILLION VIEWS! She DOES NOT HAVE the most watched music video on YouTube...most watched VIDEO on YouTube. She only has one grammy, while Gaga has 2! Gaga won 5 WMA's in one year, A RECORD! And Hun, no one is downplaying Brit, she is a legend. You're just made because Gaga PROVED to be more successful in her first 17 months than Brit in the SAME TIME PERIOD! Case closed hun  |
Ch......
1) The Digital era never started to be counted towards official sales till AFTER Britney's debut (during her 4th album to be exact and it still wasn't no where as big as it is now). If digital sales were available during her debut, she would have smashed those sales just like she did others. So don't even go there.
2) Billboard Hot 100 was determined mostly from airplay back then and not so much sales. Nevermind, Jive not pushing to release many physical singles in stores....they were more concerned with her album numbers, which were sky high because of that strategy.
3) With the addition of the digital era single sales are way higher than what they were back in those days, so of course GaGa would have more singles sold in one album.
4) Youtube wasn't created till 2005 (when Britney was busy having kids) so of course she won't have such huge views as now. Youtube is x20 more popular than it was in 2005-2007 time. More and more videos are getting higher views with each year.
5) In Baby One More Time's 47th week on the Billboard 200, it was certified Diamond by RIAA and that's not including it's WW numbers as well. (who needs 17 months when we can do it in less than 12 months?
)
I could go on and on if you want.
