However, it's odd that while promotional efforts are being used to calculate a "neccessary sales #", everyone completely ignores the fact that she's lacking a current hit. When people consider only certain criteria that fits a negative script, motives become suspicious.

She has four songs in the iTunes Top 25 currently.
You seem to be ignoring that, plus the promotion, plus the overall hype of the project, and seemingly demeaning Lady GaGa as an artist. True?

Give me the receipts. In my latest edition of Billboard The Fame was her only album on the Billboard 200, and it is at 65. You're wrong.

Stupid analogy? Probably, but I don't give a ****.

This thread's title may have been a little "much too much", but well, it all depends on how you look at it, though. ATRL members have showed many different meaning for the word "flop" - Some even call #1 Hot 100 singles a flop, so...

Sis, single sales don't equal album sales
Besides she has 4 songs in the top 30 that combined should equal #1

I´m hoping for huge sales, I mean she is a beast selling albums, she could easily sell over 1,500,000 WW first week! And I hope she does, the album *****!

You are acting like she has 15 albums out and has been around for 20 years.
She has only been around for 3 years, she has 2 albums and arguably an EP which has only been out for 18 months, these things take time, TFM is still selling, TF is still selling and BTW is going to be selling come tomorrow.
Stop acting like she should have the selling chops of people who have been around since the 90s, a huge star or not, these things take time.
