Both have been slaying this year.
Katy is coming off a huge era with
PRISM, including 2 #1 hits. She's currently on her Prismatic World Tour,
already in the top 10 female tours of all time with 7 months left to go. She performed a
critically acclaimed halftime set at the Super Bowl and performed album and era closer By the Grace of God at the Grammys to positive feedback.
Gaga is coming off a moderate hit of an album,
ARTPOP, and a hit duet album,
Cheek To Cheek, both certified gold. ARTPOP had a top 10 hit lead single and another moderate success follow up. However, her 2015 has been enormous so far, following her
recent engagement to Taylor Kinney and
universally acclaimed and hugely buzzed Oscar performance. She's also set to star in the next season of American Horror Story, which will bring about more hype to her next set. She's in a better spot in her career than she's been since probably 2011, but will it be enough to give her a comeback?
So which next era will be bigger? Who will have the bigger tour? Album sales? Single success? Media attention? K4 or LG5?
