45K? That's it? There were more than 45K homos at NYC Pride Week alone. What happened?

Pokémon X and Y did 260k pre-orders in TWO DAYS in Japan

Didn't MDNA also do those numbers? Look how that turned out

Don't get cocky sis

Plus, Gaga has already announced like 7 songs from ARTPOP which the GP has heard, whereas the GP only has Roar from Katy. Don't jump on early conclusions or you'll give everyone MDNA teas

I wish there was more data available on digital album sales. Assuming it hovers around the Top 50 on iTunes, it might cap out at 70K before the album goes on sale.

The record, held by Justin Timberlake, is about ~140k. I wonder if Gaga can beat it? There's still a lot of time left and lots of promo to come.

It would be embarrassing if she didn't. Justin did that in four weeks, Gaga will have three months of pre-orders.

I think Gaga is losing her status because of her terribad and cocky stans

4 weeks Does anyone remember how it placed on iTunes in those 4 weeks? Like what positions it held?

Lots of people don't pre-order albums.. I mean what's the point really? You still get the album the same day, and iTunes doesn't sell out like physical albums did in the 90's.

The GP has heard? No one besides the fans cares about the itunes festival

It spent the first five days + the entire last week prior to the album release at no. 1.

But Gaga has outsold her more than 3-to-1. And Katy performed at the VMAs after her album went on pre-order. And she's had a banner on the front page for a few weeks.

and the #1 song on the iTunes store for weeks What better promotion for an upcoming album can one get?

Ch.. Let's not get too ahead of ourselves (since the ones who preorder are usually the stans). If she ends up at 70K with preorders and assuming every LM who pre ordered will also buy the physical, that's 140K right there (overapprox.). She needs the GP to help her open large. On the other hand, Katy's pre-order numbers are reasonable. GaGa apparently sold ~20K of those preorders when ARTPOP and Applause went up simultaneously (the first week). Roar already had been selling before the album pre-order.

Album selling power dictates Gaga as our Queen of Pop, yet again

already passing Ciara!

The people saying Prism will outsell ARTPOP should remind themselves that Teenage Dream only outsold Born This Way in the US and barely did so with six #1 hits and a re-release.

Katy may outsell Gaga in the US but the rest of the world is Gaga's frontier.

We should never judge on pre-orders nor should we get into petty wars over them.

500k is 'barely' now?

TD sold 2.1M before re-release and was still charting, it was going to outsell BTW even without the re-release.
