And Like A Virgin was released in 1984 and i hear it every ****ing day i go to the gay clubs, smash hits will be played for years and years you will not compare Rihanna's arguably biggest smash hit to Gaga's biggest flop, same happens with Bad Romance, Poker Face, Telephone, etc.. They're still played..
It's like saying "i never heard You Da One or TTT at the radio or the clubs.. Rihanna's a flop!"
I don't consider her promo there a failure, bitch sold-out Twickenham in 10 minutes, and added a 2nd date .. And her album did more than well.. So i still can't see the matter with her promo
Oh I see. I'd like to wait for Rihanna's next tour and we will discuss this!
I mean if you compare OVER ALL sales in Europe obviously Rihanna is bigger.
BUT, considering Gaga has 2 LP's and 1 EP. I think the ratio of her work to sales is far more impressive than Rihanna's.
Rihanna's still bigger in the UK, im going to say Gaga is bigger in Europe overall tho.
Sis....Rihanna is by far the most popular of the pop girls in the UK right now. No one can match her album sales and single success except Adele obviously.
Yeah I know she's huge. I don't think chart success is the best determinant of superstardom though. Like, imagine if they both released first singles that totally tanked. Whose album would sell more? So basically, who would sell off of their name alone? The answer is Gaga. And I do think that touring is a much better indicator of star power. And that obvi goes to Lady G as well. I just, don't think Rihanna is bigger than Gaga...anywhere in the world. UK included.

you are so deluded for thinking that Let's not act like Rihanna didn't sell out 11 O2 arenas in the UK She's just bigger in the UK.
Lol at people saying 'So and so and it's not even close' when it IS close.
Overall?Compare the total sales of Gaga from 2.5 albums in 4-5 yrs to that of Rihanna's 6 albums in 6-7 yrs and have a laugh.
Right now?Talk That Talk didn't do too well anywhere and while BTW didn't do THAT well either,it still outdid the former in every way possible.Singles wise,both have had only one mega smash with their latest eras.Tour wise,Rihanna does great there,but she's yet to sell out 82,000 x 2 tickets in a matter of minutes anywhere in Europe.I'd say Gaga by a hair maybe.

Rihanna sold out O2 Arena eleven times (like 170K tickets) during her Loud Tour and her singles AND albums sell like crazy there. It's debatable who is bigger in Europe overall, but Rihanna is on another level in the UK at the moment. Fact.
.. And her album did more than well.. So i still can't see the matter with her promo 
Let's not act like Rihanna didn't sell out 11 O2 arenas in the UK
