FfFfFfFF 54,455 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 In one of her newest songs "911," Lady Gaga proclaims: my biggest enemy is me. But apparently, her biggest enemy was actually Bad Bunny! After all, it was him who had occupied the top spot on Bloomberg's Pop Star Power Rankings for the past three months, and therefore, it was he that Gaga needed to dethrone to rise back to her former pop prominence. Now, it's official. According to the recently re-calibrated list, Lady Gaga has surged to the top spot, while Bad Bunny has fallen out of the top 10 completely, plummeting down to number 11. Gaga's sudden rise is, of course, not unexpected. A month and a half ago, the singer dropped Chromatica, her sixth solo studio album and her first since 2013's ARTPOP to reclaim the straightforward pop tropes that made her famous in the early aughts. A critically-acclaimed record full of back-to-back made-for-the-club dance hits, Chromatica sold the equivalent of 274,000 album units in its first week, easily nabbing the top spot on Billboard and becoming the biggest opening week for a female artist in 2020. Judging by an accompanying chart, Bloomberg calculates its rankings based on a multitude of factors, including album sales, Spotify streams, YouTube views, 30-day tour ticket sales, and 3-month gross tour ticket sales. https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/pop-star-ranking/2020-july/lady-gaga-dethrones-bad-bunny-as-the-world-s-biggest-pop-star.html https://www.nylon.com/entertainment/lady-gaga-worlds-biggest-pop-star Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yas! I think the title is a bit misleading, bc it’s more about artists who have released rn. Taylor wouldn’t be there bc she hasn’t released lately. So it would be more like the world’s biggest pop star at the moment, I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
