Nicole, I was saying I wish Teeth had been on there for ultimate Gaga-domination. I wasn't shading. You know me better than that.

This is as important as You Lost Me topping the Club charts

@Katie: I actually meant, do you see "3" at #2? I missed it amidst all the Japanese text until Cahleb pointed it out to me. It's hard to make out. For once I wasn't shading, I know it's hard to believe coming from me.

Didn't Poker Face go #1 in Japan?

I could be wrong, but I thought she tweeted something like: "Poker Face just went #1 in Japan! I'm gonna go home and suck my dick!" or something. It was the midst of the tranny rumors, and I remember her joking along with it. I thought it was cool how she didn't get bothered by it, hence the tweet sticking out in my mind.

I could be wrong, though.

Yes, it did: http://twitter.com/#!/ladygaga/status/3186200513

2) Hard Candy reached #1 in Japan and stayed there for two weeks. Madonna has reached #1 in Japan 5 times. Gaga has NEVER reached #1 in Japan.

3) iTunes is irrelevant in Japan.

No!

It reached:

#21 on Japan Hot 100 (based on airplay)

It failed to chart on the Oricon Weekly Top 100.

It missed the top 10 in RIAJ Top 100.

It did not gain any certifications for ringtones.

OMG....I had to look at it 4 times before I saw that tiny ass "3."

Well, sorry I thought otherwise. It caught me offguard. You know I don't shade, and I love me some Gaga.

RIAJ Digital Top 100 calculates PC digital sales and is not very important.

Chaka Uta calculates ringtones. Gaga has never charted there.

The Japanese ringtone industry represents the majority of the Japanese industry nowadays. International artists like Madonna have had successes there. Madonna's Miles Away was certified for 850,000 full-track ringtones and was awarded for biggest international single in 2008 by RIAJ.

Gaga has never been certified by RIAJ for a single or a ringtone.

Just Dance - Gold
Poker Face - Gold
Bad Romance - Gold
Telephone - Gold

That's why the term: "oh my GaGa" became the newest cool trend in Japan. Only GaGa has the pop culture status.
