Cheating? Aren't they just voting Gaga down/Julian up?

Exactly, TFM won't be able to reach 2.7 million so they'll probably certify it at the end of the year. Although, when the new era begins I expect sales for TFM to pick up again so it's possible that it could reach 2.7 million if sales remain consistent over the next year. If it does happen it's going to take a long time. I hope BTW sells as consistently as TFM did.

The Fame Monster will get an extra noticeable boost if they decide to release Born This Way in either January or February.
Especially since its still pretty high in all the charts around the world because of its longevity.
Plus, she's currently touring in almost every country in Europe and after that she returns to the US and Canada and has 3 shows in Mexico.

They did a really good job of maximising sales this era. Hopefully it will be the same case with BTW. The only "flaw" with TFM was that it never peaked at #1 in the US which was unfortunate seeing as its overall sales were phenomenal. BTW will début at number 1, but I think it's going to be hard to replicate the sales they had with TFM. I think they'll re-release it but even then it's going to be hard, but not impossible.

I'm not really worried about Born This Way, sales-wise and promo-wise.
Her label did an amazing job the last 2 years, hence her amazing sales and longevity, and I am sure they'll continue to do the same for the Born This Way era.
I mean they already shot the interview for 60 Minutes and they already had a meeting with Radio 1.
I am so ready for it.

4chan is like a site for hackers, internet memes, and other crazy ****. They hacked youtube and a bunch of forums. They are not a force you want to mess with.

I'm not worried either, I'll honestly be shocked if GaGa flops/under-performs. GaGa's worked really hard during the past two years and I think she has earned her success. She's built a solid fanbase that will allow her to experiment creatively whilst ensuring she has the support to remain successful in doing so. She's in this industry for the long-haul. I think we're all ready for it, we just have to wait for GaGa to decide when the time is right.

Ann Wintour will do anything for the right price, and if it's right for her magazine. Even if she hates her, she'll put that aside. It's like a game of prostitution, except with more money and higher stakes.

The thought of her waiting during the Costume Gala, cracks me up. But she needs sales and GaGa is garunteed to gain her sales, just look at the last Rolling Stone issue, sold like crazy.
No one can deny that she is the biggest pop culture icon at the moment.

Yeah, we should probably stop talking about them before they hack us.

It's astonishing how much she accomplished in such a short amount of time.
I agree about her fanbase, it's a very solid and I think very loyal fanbase.
Look at The Remix, it didn't get any promotion besides a link on her Facebook page and a banner on www.ladygaga.com, yet it managed to sell close to 1,000,000 copies worldwide.
I have faith.

The Vanity Fair issue sold like crazy too. Was it determined if it was the best-selling issue of the year? They tweeted that it was in the running to be.

So true.
Anna Wintour will have to accept and deal.
