I dont get your point
Also red sold on par with prism outside of the US (6.2-4.1=2.1m outside of the US)
(3.6-1.6=2.0m outside of the US)

Mediatraffic hasnt updated fearless in forever so idk whether its at 9m or 9.5m but it did on par with OOTB

And 1989 will do on par with TD by the end of the era

Anyways this outside of the US argument is so silly, its like arguing with the navy and only talking about sales outside of europe.

Lol @ all of this.
We'll see.

This whole US vs WW thing only works when I use it.

For example: GGGB sold 6M copies outside the US: at least 2x as much as any Katy album!

Katy's dominating everywhere, which is exactly why Forbes specifically highlighted her global appeal and success not just in the US but across the world.

follow your own conversation

Katy's dominating everywhere

*sells less than 1989 in the US worldwide and in Total*



Forbes highlighted her global appeal cause most of her money came from her WW tour

Inside the US, Taylor has sold approximately 25.991 million albums.
Worldwide, Taylor has sold approximately 33.815 million albums.

So the US accounts for nearly 77% of her album sales.

Taylor has sold 28m in the US
36-37m worldwide

[Ecstasy]

Not everybody can sell double or triple of their US sales outside the North America while remaining successful in Murica as well

False.
TD has sold over 3.5M outside the US.
3.5 x 2 = 7
Close but no cigar.

I'm going to go based off of Studio albums because other types of albums are really hard to find receipts for.

You have a Katy avatar but I always see you dragging her.

Katy Perry 8 year global career: 14M albums
Taylor Swift 10 year (1-3 year global) career: 36M albums

bye

TD has sold 3M WW imo (OTUS). I know you're using 6.5 - 3M but yeah... No. i really doubt TD sold 300K in 2015 like Mediatraffic are claiming lol. Clearly rounding up.

how did you come up with her WW sales?
6+9.5+5.7+6.2+7.6=35m
and her certs alone add up to well over 90% of those.
also her Us sales for those 5 albums only
5.5+6.95+4.5+4.1+5=26.05m
about 75% but tbh when you consider how huge her album sales are in the US its not surprising, they're over 10m higher than most "global popstars" worldwide sales.

Well, I did say approximately. Your numbers and mine are very close.

I didn't include her christmas album and other separate projects. I felt that'd be unfair since those weren't released in really any countries outside the U.S.

In your opinion.
It's sold over 3.5M outside the US, like the certifications/known sales back this claim up.

MT had the album at 6.2M in dec 2014. They were clearly rounding up after that. Seriously, if you're going to be so dense, stop quoting me to correct me when you're like always wrong. Lol js.

PS: POM 3D did lose money and katy is a terrible singer

[Nialler]

Why do all ex-stans always have to make up things to drag Katy?
