Even Femme Fatale sold more, and it was a Q1 release.

20/20 Experience was Q1 and did 968,000 so let's not use that excuse for their sales, the fact haters are giddy because Gaga did around the same amount as the rest of the competition shows just how dominant she's been and how pressed they are over her slaying their favorites with her last album.

That's what's funny about these overreactions, she typically does even lower first week numbers. Born This Way was an exception, hardly anyone is going close to platinum in their debut weeks.

Wrong, the Amazon deal sold 440,000 copies so the album still sold 660,000 copies outside of that deal. Gotta love the shade haters try to throw tho.
