3. She's not "huge" worldwide
4. PoM hit #1 in more countries than E.T., LFN, TOTGA & Firework
5. The video was released a few days ago
6. POM is now climbing fast in the top 10s of many European Countries
It's pointless, POM isn't performing like WFL, RITD or PRA, WW but it is still doing great!
It was #1 in many countries and I'm happy!

1. E.T. leaked over a year before it was released too, it was also on an album people could purchase for 8 months prior to single release and that was a much bigger Hit in the US alone, not even looking worldwide. (There's more to a successful song than a couple of #1s)
2. I didn't say there was hype, but the song is over a month old now, there should be some kind of hype and the song should've reached its peak by now.
3. Yes, she is. It probably goes: 1. Adele, 2. Lady Gaga, 3. Rihanna 4. Katy Perry. Are you saying there's only 3 huge female stars?
4. So because single #1 is doing better than single #3, 4, 5 & 6 it's not underperforming? Umm..
5. And what did Katys last 6 videos do to chart performance in the first few days? A LOT more than this one.
6. France annnd....?
It was #1 in 4 Counties, two of which require like 5k sales to get #1.
It's under performing and is crap.

It should be doing good there tho, don't have idea where it is tbh

The song is underperforming in english-speaking countries. And with a few exceptions (Latin America, Italy, Japan, & maybe France) it's a flop everywhere else. |
Yeah, I thought it was fake, but then I saw it on Wikipedia and so I couldn't be arsed researching against it, too much effort.
