Just because someone isn't as successful as they once were doesn't mean they're irrelevant. Rihanna hasn't topped GGGB. Beyonce hasn't topped whatever her highest-selling album is. Katy hasn't topped TD.
Y'all can't pull the "isn't selling as much" card with Gaga when no one is selling as much as their peak.
P.S. Since I know you're going to bring up "single sales" to prove "x artist is increasing in sales", 'Applause' is Gaga's biggest radio hit and sold more than four BTW singles and 'DWUW' sold more than two BTW singles.

Cut the ********.
I said way more than 50 because her decline is probably around like what? %80?
6.8M > 1.9M
Katy
6.5M > 3.5M (it will be less than %50 once the era is over too)
She declined hard, she hasn't even outsold Born This Way's first week sales so don't try and bring up the "no one is selling as much as their peak" argument because it doesn't apply here.
Applause (the LEAD single) has sold only more than BTW's last 2 singles and Judas and it's not her biggest radio hit

Mediabase inflated their audience last year so of course it's going to look like it's her biggest radio hit
and wow yes dwuw sold 1 million such an accomplishment

i would be worried if it didn't
