Also, do we know what her single stats are with equivalent track streams?

Yeah, that 14 million figure is old and I'm sure Poker Face has come close or surpassed 15 million given it's really good catalogue sales over the years. I honestly don't mind changing it for the OP.
We could try to figure out her single sales WW with SPS but it would be hard because streams aren't exactly super easy to track. Would we only include visible streams like Spotify or YouTube? What about the streams from other services like Tidal, Google Play, and Apple Music, etc.? Labels probably have much better methods to track that stuff which is why a lot of sources report her single sales to be between 125-143 million even though we have roughly 100 million in pure sales.
I did Poker Face's sales + SPS some time ago for fun and I think my figure had it at like 17 million with only Spotify and YouTube. But again, my math could be wrong.
