Well deserved  :applause:

 

Poker Face still selling after all this years  :giveup:

PF's sales are really amazing. I mean, a source released by Billboard 2 months ago said that the song sold 7.092m copies, and now, it has sold 25k more according to this. As a song that old, that's amazing.

Where is Paparazzi? I presume it's her 5th biggest.

It's probably somewhere around 3.45m right now, but I'm just guessing.

Great! This means all of her worldwide smash hits have now passed the 4 million mark in the US alone. Would love to see her add more down the road.

Yup. It's currently her 5th best-selling single, followed closely by Telephone. Here are the stats we have right now for her digital sales in the US.

My dream is for:

-Poker Face to eventually reach 8 million

-Just Dance to reach 7 million

-Bad Romance to eventually reach 6 million

-The Edge of Glory to reach 3 million

-Applause to reach 3 million

-G.U.Y. to reach 100k (:toofunny::giveup::rip:)

all of this is doable (except maybe GUY -__- ) , poker face is such a strong seller it will get to 8m for sure ( if digital sales arent dropping too much in the following years )

Congrats Gaga! This got me thinking though, is it better to have a fewer number of quality #1's or a greater quantity of sub-par #1's? (And by quality, I'm referring to the sales.) People always praise Katy Perry and Rihanna for their string of #1's in the US, which is extremely commendable mind you, but something they leave out is that some of these #1's have disappointing sales, with some even selling less than 3 million copies in the US. On the other hand, Gaga's relatively small quantity of #1's have all been quality sellers, with not one of them selling below 4 million copies in the US. Look below to see all the #1's songs by Katy and Rihanna that have sold less than Gaga's #1's. (In other words, they've sold less than 4 million copies in the US.)

 

Rihanna: S&M – 3,576,008 copies

Rihanna: Only Girl (In The World) – 3,477,234 copies

Katy Perry: Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) - 3,470,000 copies

Eminem ft. Rihanna: The Monster – 3,326,598 copies

Rihanna: Diamonds – 3,093,703 copies

Rihanna: What's My Name? – 2,977,000 copies

Rihanna: Take A Bow – 2,855,000 copies

Rihanna: Rude Boy – 2,800,000 copies

Katy Perry: Part Of Me – 2,723,000 copies

Rihanna: SOS – 2,000,000 copies

 

With that in mind...is it better to have more #1's, with some/many being relatively low sellers, or it better to have just a handful of #1's that are strong sellers?

You're forgetting Firework, Roar, Dark Horse.
