Exactly. I don't know why people consider Katy bigger than Rihanna. It's ludicrous.

It's better if you quote me when you make senseless remarks on what I have to say. And since you don't think it's out of the question that Katy is as successful as Rihanna, please direct me towards her Grammy's and tour grosses please. Last time I checked she performed in LA for three or four nights and didnt't even bank a million altogether. And it's not farfetched to say that Katy won't ever be on Rih's level because even withh all this recent "success" she's not winning Grammy's, selling a great deal of albums, or performing in huge arenas.
And like I said, it was never my intent to come in here to demean Katy's accomplishments, but when people say stuff like "Katy is bigger than Rihanna" it lights my fuse.

I think Rih takes the crown for that one. You know she deep throated Jay-Z for that record contract.

You Katy Cats should be content with the success your fave has had locally this year and not try to push it when someone brings up a valid point. Your fave has only had success with singles this era. Her tour is nothing amazing and is only bringing in okay numbers, while Rihanna is selling out world-famous venues in and out of the United States. Rihanna is ******** on even the big gurlz with her album sales, while Katy is selling what Rihanna sold with her "flop" album even with these 5 #1 singles. So don't act like Katy is above Rihanna, cause she's NOT and will NEVER be. Yes, Katy should be applauded for her feat, but that's her ONLY noteworthy accomplishment and it will REMAIN that way.
I was gonna come in and say something nice about Katy and congratulate her on this article, but you Katy Cats get an inch and take a mile.

thanks Wonda <3

What exactly has Rihanna done bigger than Katy this year? In 2011, Teenage Dream has sold more copies than LOUD. She's had three massive hit, while Rihanna had Whats My Name, but that sold it's majority last year, and then S&M followed by two flops.

In 2011, yes. Overall, Madonna will always be Queen Of Pop.

She's sold more than 20 Million Digital tracks in the US alone from this era. And her album has sold 1.7 Million copies in the US, which in this day and age is impressive, and it will hit 2 million, with or without a rerelease. You trolls need to learn a little bit of respect.

You need to learn what "troll" means. I am stating facts. Gaga has sold 1.7 million copies in three months with one #1 single (I'm only bringing her up because her and Katy are arguably the biggest popstars atm). When you have five #1 singles, you should be able to push millions of copies of your album. The fact that she's not doing that shows that people only care when it comes to her singles. When people with less #1s are selling millions more than you are, you know something is wrong. Just because someone is saying something that you don't agree with, doesn't mean they're a troll for **** sakes.

OMG, girl, you don't get it.
ALBUM SALES > SINGLE SALES. Katy can sell 8,000,000,000 singles, but if she's not pushing as many albums as her contemporaries, then she's not as musically successful as them. When you can get people to fork down $15 for a complete body of work as opposed to $1 for one song, you're doing something right.

Stop lying, Katy Hudson was released in 2001. So she is 10 years deep in the industry.

Rihanna just got her 3rd number 1 this year, with the legendary Britney Spears, sold over 5 million albums all together with Loud, sold out 10 O2 Arenas and is coming out with a blockbuster movie. All you have is number 1s, and VMAs. Rihanna is kicking ass this year, best believe that hun

Rihanna? Her tour, her fragrance, her UK love, her #1 single in the US, her number 1 single worldwide, her number 1 single in France for a flop (Mandown), more albums sold overall, 5.2M for Loud to like, 3.8M for Katy with LESS effort. Katy has done NOTHING this year except a number 1 single and cheap ass promo
