I live in the UK and Katy is certianly NOT the Queen on the UK, that title belongs to Rihanna, and second in command is Lady Gaga.

Not really. I live in Australia and Rihanna is relatively successful, but certainly not the queen. Most of her dance-pop songs are huge here like OG, S&M, WFL but her more urban stuff like WMN and YDO didn't even make the top 10. Those kinds of songs struggle. Australia is only here for one side of Rihanna, not the whole package.
Katy on the other hand.. The radio chews up her songs. Most of her songs make the top 5. Although, she's only had 2 #1s here. Not as big as she is in the US.

Who cares about Adelaide. It's an irrelevant city. That's one of the smallest ones that everyone forgets about anyway. Artists usually avoid touring there. Sydney, Melbourne and even Brisbane are where the figures really matter and she clearly sold a decent amount.

I live in Australia and so I would say, no she isn't. Pink is much more popular here than Katy.

 So mean, but so true.

No, Katy isn't the Queen of Australia. As many others have stated, the title belongs to P!nk, and if we want to talk currently (I assume from the TD era onwards) then Rihanna and Adele would be massive competitors. Not so much Rihanna if we're talking recent months, but definitely Adele.

Post Gaga and Rihanna's stats and compare. I know that whoever the biggest here of the 3 is, Its still pretty close. I live in Aus so i find it laughable anyone would call Katy a US only act.

Queen is P!nk, it was Delta Goodrem back in Innocent Eyes era she slayed, she never topped that success but still did well enough though.
Katy does well here but P!nk still slays.

Last tours? But I thought we were talking about current? Not sure how Gaga's doing with her tour sales in Australia currently though.
EDIT: Nvm...here are the receipts for the BTW tour (Aka Gaga's CURRENT TOUR):

Kylie to Australia is like what Madonna is to the U.S. right now. Both have had huge impact on popular culture in the past and are each considered legends, but neither connects that well to today's generation of the music buying public. If anyone, it would have to be P!nk.
