Modern Ecstacy 3,871 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Wait guys I'm confused. Singles have to sell 10 million copies to be diamond certified right? But Poker Face and Bad Romance have sold 7.3 and 5.6 million copies respectively, so how are they certified Diamond? Is it due to streaming? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Economy 49,540 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 11 hours ago, Easy said: i just googled a little but I dont think RIAA has Diamond cert for singles, only albums. But if 10x Platinum counts as diamond for you, then Bad Romance already hit 11x Platinum that means PF and BR already hit diamond Just Dance now 8x Plat. her other hits are like 3-4x plat so still long way to go EDIT: mess they do have diamond certs, Wikipedia didn't show! That means Queen Gags now has 2 diamonds and JD probs already there after SB! INTERSCOPE UPDATE THE NUMBERS! If MR sold less tban 145K on biggest market in the world and where SB is huge the following week after SB... Just Dance which only stayed high on itunes for a number of days definitely did not close over a 1M sales gap it needed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Gaga 22,889 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Only Just Dance has a chance. In April 2015 it was at 8x Platinum. Since then, it sold 200k copies at least + streaming: it's already at 9x Platinum. Maybe next year, or whenever the **** interscope decides to update her certifications, we will get the 3rd diamond single. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
