Not TD, though. And era with 8 (?) singles, promoted by a movie and a Grammy performance and not even 6M albums WW doesn't deserve to be on this list.

8 TWO MILLION selling singles including 6 #1s
$59M tour
A lot of awards
a little impact
6.5 million albums worldwide and almost 3 million in the US

that alone should make it one of the biggest eras in this decade, only 2-4 albums outsold Teenage Dream in the US.

Honestly, 21, Loud, and Teenage Dream are the only eras that were huge.

Born This Way had more hype prior to the era than the actual course of the era. Beyoncé was only big for a week (spare me your "receipts", I'm not trying to return anything).

gurl, you talked about impact and pop culture revelancy... I think making the news with an album release is revelant enough. the surprise release was an event. all things considered the album sold very well for the current climate and the price and the lack of promo that occured after the grammy's.

You care too much about that because you are a Beyonce stan. I only see an album with amazing but frontloaded sales, singles that underperformed/flopped, and after a few months the album is selling less than Bruno Mars who released two years ago, and promo isn't an excuse, Eminem, Lorde, Pharrell, Arctic Monkeys and several artists are outselling her without promo. If the album is one of the biggest eras it doesn't make sense that is already selling less than some other lesser ones.

Lorde, Pharell never outsold Beyoncé. never checked for Arctic tbh. if anything all the artists you cited (minus Arctic) have huge airplays on radio. thank God they're selling well with that much airplay.

Drunk In Love and Partition did well on their format. they were US singles and they did their job.

XO flopped. Pretty Hurts is snubed @ radios because it's a pop-ish song and it was sent @ urban stations. normal.

nobody is trying anything i dont know rihanna's stats perfectly, but didnt loud sell over 6 million ww? and spawn 3 huge hits. and the only album that sold more than recovery this decade is 21. It doubled (more than doubled, actually) BEYONCE' its sales both us and ww. and is the only album in history to spawn 2 US certified diamond singles.

[Androo]

1.Adele - 21
2.Eminem - Recovery
3.Lady Gaga - The Fame Monster
4.Katy Perry - Teenage Dream
5.Rihanna - Loud

[Eternium]

1. 21
2. Recovery
3. Teenage Dream
4. Loud
5. Unorthodox Jukebox

Taylor comes in at #6 with Red and with her newfound global success, could probably launch a new era to the top 3 with the right songs.

I was talking about current album sales, not overall. I clearly said BEYONCE sales are amazing but frontloaded. And all the artists i mentioned are outselling her lately on B200 and most of them without promo, she's not even Top 40 after a few months of being released.

The era is one of the biggest, but far from Top 5.

[lawmak]

I don't know but the best selling albums ww might be something like this:

1. 21
2. Christmas
3. Born This Way
4. My Worlds
5. Red

Why are you even trying it? First of all, its not "not even 6M", it IS at least 6 million, in fact probably more since people have been using that figure for years. Second of all, its the only album in THREE DECADES to produce five #1 singles, plus another one from the re-release and the other 2 went top 3. Just because the era was singles-driven doesn't mean it wasn't a huge era. The album is also the only one that the OP mentioned (other than I believe 20/20E) that is still charting in the US.

I think it's still a memorable era of this decade we all jammed to one of the #1 hits of Teenage Dream whether we're male or female, young or old. that's what this list is about. I agree with you for the single/album bad ratio tho. but still, TD deserve to be Top5 bcause of the fact that the era lasted 2 years basically and we all heard about the MJ record she tied/broke. (single sales, pop revelancy)

same reasoning with Beyoncé, we all heard about the surprise release. It was an event. it made the news. it broke itunes record. it made Guiness Book of Record. she made the TIME cover. Topped Forbes list. and nobody touches Beyoncé acclaim wise this decade. it's a memorable moment for Beyoncé career and this decade. (Impact, pop revelancy, acclaim, album sales)

21 was an event too. nobody touched her sales wise. she's also THE new talent of this decade. (album sales, acclaim)

Born To Die is revolutionnary for its genre if you ask me. she made this depressing music mainstream and now you have artists like Lorde that benefits from it. The album sold 5m without #1s she's just like Beyoncé for this and it's impressing to see there's still albums artists particulary this decade. (album sales, impact)

I have no argument for Bruno Mars I just threw him @ the last place because he's the most popular male artist on earth atm. so I'll say Pop Revelancy and Album Sales.
