They sure do and I can see the new album selling better seeing that it looks like "Who Says" can be a big hit for the album.

Katy another 23k

Isn't it around 200k away from TD? And selling about the same every week?

So, there is still quite a gap, which does not seem to close much soon.

This past week it was about the same due to ET release explosion. Rih's sales will increase when CKB is released. Ballads sell albums more. Theyre both doing solid in the US.

200k less and 12 weeks less on chart, that's about 17k Loud needs to sell more than TD to reach it. It really depends on MD/CKB, if they are both huge i can see this happen. It really depends on where they will stabilize in the long term.

I did not mean to start a fight, they are both doing great.

But there is a gap, they have not sold the same and that initial post just had me going.

We will have to see how the future for both albums goes.

Always comparing Rihanna's US sales with Katy's. Wondering why? Try with Gaga. Or Bey. Why don't you compare Rihanna's sales with Gaga? Let's go with Gaga 1st...

Well considering Bey went 3X plat with a re-release with IASF ,and Rihanna is almost half that., she'll get there with a re-release, considering GGGB sold 1.2M before re-release and end up selling 2.7M+ , with only 2 additonal singles.

Plus Rihanna has bigger hits than GGGB coming.

Really? Nope, it's because it's easy to compare your fave sales with still practically newbies (Katy, Ke$ha) but when you compare her sales to someone who's in the game as long as she (Bey, for example), you know how will her sales look in comparison to them. Nope, I don't want WW comparison since we're in US HITS/Billboard thread.

Leave Katy's sales alone (in other words to her fans) and concentrate on your fave.

You say not to compare to these newbies yet first you say to compare her with Gaga, she came after Katy, why isn't Katy the same success as hers? And since when is Beyoncé in the game as long as Rihanna?

[futurelove92]

ri & katy dont approve of this mess..

How many #1's had IASF? How many singles Bey released from re-release? How many singles went #1 from re-release?

[Cap10Planet]

These arguments are so repetitive and redundant. Aren't there other artists to discuss that are selling or not selling besides GaGa, Rihanna and Katy?
