This is true for most artist's but there are exceptions. Take That for example have had their last 3 albums all sell well over 3M and grossed $185M off a 35 date tour.

^Gaga looked really good there.

Those successful moments were so short lived and happened because he was working with whoever was hot at the time (will.i.am, Pitbull, David Guetta.)

The OMG Tour didn't flop but it was hardly a major success. His last tour was cancelled twice.

He has had successful moments is the point. He won't always be majorly successful, and that's what some of you need to get through your heads. Usher hasn't faded off hard like some of his male counterparts and that's commendable.

I think if SIO doesn't debut at #1 this week, then it won't go #1 at all.

Nah, it's probably going to do it another week even if it does get blocked by Anaconda.

Look at its damn radio updates It's not like they're going to just not let this happen.

If she releases her album and her label basically pays for it, it's possible. I don't think Beyonce or JT got in based on merit alone. They were both on their current eras, so the "obligation" was there.

It would have to be successful + Atlantic's ****** ass would never.

Imogen Heap her album slays

Gaga's outfit last year was a totally trash. It represented her real well.

On the other hand Katy, represented her single "Roar."

True. It's not something like PLL where everyone is DYING to find out who A is.

Agreed. I can't believe PLL has been renewed for a 6th and 7th series. They've already been at high school for 5 years

The fact 90% of people talking and making jokes on it don't know what happen.

You guys call Britney braindead on a daily basis without knowing what exactly happened post 2007.

I don't think she's winning, either and Robin clearly destroyed her pre-frontrunner positon with her submission but I'd still go iike this:

1. Julianna
2. Robin
3. Kerry
4. Lizzy
5. Claire
6. Michelle

Claire is barely being mentioned by most publications. She's sent in an episode in which she's calmer opposed to her previous submissions so I'm not sure if that makes her shot at winning better or worse. A Julianna win is also likely to make up for the lack of The Good Wife as Best Drama.

I say you're never supposed to count out a reigning champ at TV acting award shows, especially if they have done a repeat. Danes might have some residual love. I think the faded Homeland love might hurt her, but they might feel that her acting is warranted for the win. The best part of the last season was her acting after all.

Raymond v. Raymond went Platinum, had a #1, a Top 5, and multiple Top 20/Top 40's. He went #1 on Urban countless times, along with being the 2nd most successful Male Artist of 2010 according to Billboard. He also outsold his previous album.

Where exactly was the flop?

and the decline from Confessions to Here I Stand was so embarrassing.

Confessions was released 2004, the #1 album of the year went Diamond.

Here I Stand was released 2008; the #1 album of the year went 2x Platinum.

It was gonna be a huge decline for anyone. Y'all need to stop. If it was released in 2005 or something and still went Platinum, then it would be a huge decline.

Those successful moments were so short lived and happened because he was working with whoever was hot at the time (will.i.am, Pitbull, David Guetta.)

This literally makes no sense.

95% of people who have hits, get them working with whoever is hot. So how is that a drag exactly?

& how were they shortlived if he had multiple hits back-to-back?

The OMG Tour didn't flop but it was hardly a major success. His last tour was cancelled twice.

It grossed over $75 million, for someone 'local' and who, according to you, last success was 2004.

How is that not a success?

Your REACHES TO HEAVEN to find ANY way to discredit him for no reason.

I am not. I don't think she is winning either way. I think Julianna Margulies might pull off the win since The Good Wife has had such a comeback, there seems to be a Danes/Homeland-fatigue and many people feel that Robin Wright messed up her chances by submitting the wrong episode.

Rankings by chance:
1. Julianna Margulies
2. Robin Wright
3. Claire Danes
4. Lizzy Caplan
5. Kerry Washington
6. Michelle Dockery

they also messed it up when they submitted 'Last Call' for Julianna and not the masterpiece 'Hitting the Fan'. they really messed up big time

Her life was aired to the whole world throughout 2007 on a daily basis.

We knew when she was walking, and when she was sleeping.

Everyone knows what happen.

8. I Gotta Feeling - Black Eyed Peas 13,044,000 points
9. Happy - Pharrell Williams 13,025,000 points

I know UWC isn't very reliable but did that piece of **** song seriously have the same impact as I Gotta Feeling? Hell, it might surpass "Hey Jude" soon. I think this is the world's biggest mistake musically in recent years.

Yeah, but Roar had insane radio updates (even more than SIO - 75M AI in 3 days), equally large first week sales & streaming and it still didn't go #1 until the video was out. SIO already has its video out, will peak in digital sales in its first week & by the time radio gets high enough for a #1 spot, the sales will have fallen. It's now or never.

[Sinister]

the fact that Looking 4 Myself was able to be one of the highest selling R&B album compared to the "new" boys of the R&B generation is still impressive
