Sales, streams, popularity with 0 impact isn't necessarily building up to being a main girl. I love Ariana but her weaknesses are less about her numbers and more about her impact. What might save her in the long run is that she has the voice.

Yes. I was around for the debut of all of the major popgirls since Britney and we've always started out by laughing at their stats compared to the major popgirls that came before them. We did it to Beyonce, Alicia Keys, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, etc. However, major pop girl status has more to do with how high above your peers you are.
And very, very few popgirls have impact early on in their careers. Rihanna had 0, Katy Perry had 0, Taylor Swift had 0, etc. Impact isn't instant for most artists and some major popgirls end up with very little by the end of their careers. It's only one factor in major status.
