I actually agree with you.

The excuses are cringeworthy. The sales are underwhelming for a major pop girl with 3 hit songs. As simple as that.

Neon Lights peaked with 75M AI (almost as much as Break Free has at the moment)
Really Dont Care peaked with 62M AI (More than Bang Bang so far)

And neither of them outsold the others despite the airplay, so the excuse is invalid

[Taste of Honey]

These numbers are fine for her really. She has hits, but she's not a major pop name yet.

I don't know why people are expecting her to sell 200k+. Part of the GP still think as her as Cat from victorious or that she looks 12. So they aren't going to buy it. UNTIL she completely shreds that part, then she isn't going to sell more than 200k+.

I said before the album sis

Plus Ariana had collaboration singles and she had tons more promo than Demi had

[Ivory.]

Disappointing, but at least she'll get two #1's in a row.

Hopefully she'll continue the streak of #1 albums for 3 more albums and then she'll take the record for youngest female artist with 5 consecutive #1's on billboard(I think?).

There's always next era.

Her career is a bit like Rihanna's when she was on her second album so far, a ton of hits but no album sales.

Maybe next era will be her true breakthrough.

Clock ha.

Demi would not have sold more. The hits were basically given to her, but she still didn't get them. You can't blame Ariana for actually getting those hits.

[memi stan]

These sales are lower than I expected but not bad. I'm just happy her sales are improving since her last album and she is having huge single success. I think she can have longevity this era because she has multiple hit singles unlike last era.

[Justinintime]

Disappointing numbers, but with a string of strong singles it might scan platinum. She should have released the album on the heels of problem, imo. She definitely would have cleared 200k then.

[Poxy]

people dragged her for filth on twitter, i can't believe people actually think the GP in general are lining up to buy her album. she just has a strong devoted cult following. like no one even knows who she is, and the adults that do treat her like a disney kid

[Blade]

i thought this was going to outsell ARTPOP

[phatty033]

given her promo and the fact that she is everywhere, this is kinda

but I think she will have longevity.

These numbers are fine. give her time

[zach]

Omg even worse than I expected. And with 3 top ten hits?

[NEZ]

im no ariana stan but these numbers are fine. album sales are the pits. the real battle will be longevity.

[bijonse]

her good girl gone bad is coming next album

[AlieyahMaraj]

I was expecting a slay. Mess.
