Video games, their ARTPOP era.

If  she would release album on Spotify it would boost sales so much and would get her at least few extra weeks at #1

[Didymus 34,380]

Fallout & GTA should've been #1 and #2 tbh.

So she's also slaying entertainment products, not only pop girls.

Do you mean Britney? If so, it's okay because she's been missing from the list way before Adele came back.

You guys do realize Gta v has been out for a couple of years. It sold over 11 million copies within its first 24 hours of release. So you need to worry about the games that came out in 2015
