You can think what you want. GaGa put out 5 albums this decade and still not into the top 10. So yes excuse me, she is underperforming here. But we love her no matter her place in this top, right ? 

But why the hell are you comparing Katy to Gaga? Is it impossible for you insecure types to defend your fave without dragging or putting Gaga down?

Shallow has probably moved more worldwide units than all songs Kathryn released after 2014 combined. Let that sink in.

me seeing all the shade to Lady Gaga from this fanbase in this topic might be like:

sisTERS, are u okay?

[ThisGuyTony 30,922]

Yikes. And they said Gaga’s “downfall” was the worst in pop music history.

ARTPOP Era 4 M: Applause (3M) DWUW (1M)

TC : 1M

ASIB Era 3M : Shallow 2M INLA (1M)

Actually C2C had two singles I think.

Good for Katy she earned her place in here but you can keep last decade, we have a new decade (and the "of all time" rankings) to look forward to!

[Serial Chiller 8,044]

Everyone knows that Gaga's RIAA is not up to date... Stop using it as a reliable source to your calculations.

So, what IS the deal with this situation? 1. Why is it up to labels to request certifications; 2. Why is it okay for anyone involved in Gaga's career that her songs' impact is underreported?

Do we know an idea of what these figures should be?
