I'm still very disappointed with Rihanna's sales. She's doing amazing on radio but even with 130 A.l, I don't know if Only Girl will go 3x plat. Maybe Ke$ha is not the 'radio queen' but Your Love Is My Drug sold more than Rude Boy wich had 150 A.l. Now, WMN? isn't plat while WRWWR sold almost 1.5 copies. If Billboard doesn't count airplay, Rihanna wouldn't have so many #1's single. So, Rih's stans should stop saying that WRWWR isn't one of the bigger hit of 2010 and call Rihanna the 'queen of anything'. Rihanna is bigger on radio, Ke$ha is bigger on iTunes.
Maybe I'm a Ke$ha's stan but I love Rihanna too. I'm just realistic.

Reasons for this:
1. Rihanna has 2 songs on top competing with each other
2. Rihanna AI advantage comes from urban and rhythmic radios where sales are low or null (see Chris Brown)
3. WRWWR was released 1 week before WMN?, so it has about 200k of advantage. And WMN? is platinum
4. Rihanna is a better album seller than Kesha, results for Rated R/ Animal and Loud/Cannibal confirm this. People will buy the album rather than the single.
Also, with the Xmas sales OG will surely go 3x platinum, which is only less than Disturbia on her resume.
