Gaga had one underperforming album, it was bad, it wasn't selling not because Gaga is not global  It wasn't selling well ANYWHERE. Does that mean that Gaga is non existent, cuz you can't say she is local either ? 
Ew, your bias is not cute, not when BTW sold more in its 30th week WW than Rihanna's last 3 albums in their 20th. BTW sold 7M+ WW, when was the last time a Rihanna album did that ? In 2007
Born This Way sold more outside the USA than Rihanna, Katy, Beyonce last albums did WW incl. the USA.
ARTPOP was labeled the biggest flop and it still sold 2M, 1.5M less than the other smash albums like Unapologetic, PRISM and BEYONCE
Y'all have set yourselves for big draggings next era. Y'all think Gaga isn't global anymore because of 1 undeperforming album, don't be surprised next era |
This long ass post 
Are you really saying that Gaga is still a global force? When her last album hasn't gone multi-platinum anywhere in the world?
Rihanna >>>>>> Gaga.
Selling 3.5+ million >>>>>>>>> selling 2 million off a 7 million selling era

Comparing a two months old song's certifications to years old songs'.
Comparing someone with an album out and 3 strong recent singles to someone with just a single.
The desperation, the lies. 
Funny how it's always the same pressed members. poor dem

Just for clarity: ARTPOP sold 1.8M copies while Unapologetic sold 4M. That's more than double.
Born This Way is at 6.7M (the same as LOUD).

Lady Gaga is a force /endthread. Lady Gaga's last album was an underperformance just like RR and 4 that doesn't suddenly erase Lady Gaga's global slayage, which was more than Rihanna.
Gaga has played stadiums in all continents sans North America. This decade Gaga has sold more than 10M albums outside the USA.... TF+TFM around 3-4M, BTW 4.5M, ARTPOP 1.3M
and TF and TFM were released last decade so yeah
don't even try it these are Gaga's last 3 albums, Rihanna's last 3 albums: Loud, TTT and Una sold 7M outside the USA at most and they were released THIS decade.
Just like how you can't be GLOBAL just because you had 1 big era WW (let's say KESHA during her first album) the same way you don't become NON EXISTENT because of 1 underperforming album, when you've slayed every part of the world before and you are known everywhere

Lady gaga is not a force (2015) 
Gaga was obviously considerably bigger than Rih from 2009-2011 but Rihanna has been the bigger force for the last few years in and out of music.. dont be silly

You're definitely not talking about touring I guess, 2012/2013 Lady Gaga earned 185M by touring with 90 dates and 1.9M average gross, 19k average attendance, basically the biggest tour by a female artist that is not Madonna or Celine Dion
In 2012 she didn't release new music, but her album BTW sold nearly 1M WW that year (300k in Japan and 300k in the USA alone) and in 2013 she released an underperforming album, that's it.
Gaga's global power is still the same, her music was bad and non trendy and she fired her manager 1 week before her album was released. ARTPOP basically sold 2M albums based on the lead single alone, considering the 2nd single didn't even have a video and the 3rd single was released after ARTPOP was already at 1.9M WW according to unofficial source Mediatraffic

Well compare their latest.. Rihanna's DWT grossed 142mil whilst artrave did 83mil
Im pretty sure gaga's power is not the same because i am more than happy to bring up receipts showing her decline in single sales, album sales, ticket sales..

Rihanna's tour was from 2013, that's when BTWB tour ended, so they are comparable Lady Gaga has earned 500M this decade from touring, those numbers speak enough. After selling so many tickets, you can't have endless demand you know... She's been touring non stop in 2009, 2010, 2011 she had some break then and then 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 ......
They are both global obviously, so le me just leave

Figured that you would have no comeback to that last post of mine. Stay living in your fictional land.

Yet another lie
Loud: 1.7m in the US, 6.3m worldwide = 4.6m outside of the US
TTT: 1.2m in the US, 3.8m worldwide = 2.6m outside of the US
Una: 1.1m in the US, 3.7m worldwide = 2.6m outside of the US
That's 9.8m outside of the US this decade

She's not.
She's not that big in Asia nor Oceania.
Slaying Europe doesn't make one 'global'.
