other than Rod Stewart's, Jorge Ben and Jean-Michel have more or equal than gaga, they don't count as standalone acts? 

Either way, insane achievement  

Those were both also part of holiday celebrations (80th anniversary of Moscow and NYE)

can someone edit wikipedia 

That's the first thing I had in mind since some Coldplay fan on Wiki kept removing my edits along the weeks. 😆

Always complaining about "little monsters inflating Gaga's numbers, being so annoying etc" and here we are with Daddy Guinness validation.

Yep technically she's the very first artist to reach this number on her name alone.

As you said the few others who did better did so with the help of big National events celebrations so we'll never know if it's what made them be "higher" than Gaga or not.

Every pop act under the sun will try to surpass this now.

Gaga set the bar incredibly high, and the most impressive, Madonna already set the bar insanely high last year, her 1.6M attendance is impressive and gaga beating that by almost 1M is a great honor.

LADY GAGA >>>>>>>> poor donna

Good, people can now stop obsessing for the numbers. Every thread during copacabana would be plagued with, “is it 2.4, but I read 2.1, why is she lying”

Genuinely wild that they feel like they need to qualify it with “female” when the acknowledgement literally states that it is the most attended standalone concert in history and that Rod Stewart’s numbers are believed to be inflated due to the NYE firework celebration that came after it.
 

Largest standalone concert of all time, iktr 

Because males tend to have the highest achievements in the music industry, for the most part. Or a woman sets a record but a man swoops in and takes it later. Sad, but true. That's why, when it comes to touring records, there's a different Wikipedia section for female achievements because, as great as those achievements are, they pale in comparison to male touring acts. If there was no female section, those women would've been a footnote except for Taylor, Beyonce and maybe Pink. A female sections means they're on top. Even Gaga can't beat their totals so the qualifier of "female" makes her more likely to hold onto the record for longer, maybe even forever.
