Silver Keith 27 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/5657799/ask-billboard-whos-sold-more-katy-perry-or-lady-gaga Digital song sales:Katy Perry: 49,897,000Lady Gaga: 46,322,000 And, album sales:Lady Gaga: 8,817,000Katy Perry: 4,333,000 So … Perry narrowly leads in digital song sales, while Gaga boasts a more than two-to-one lead in album sales, reflecting the latter's clearer status as an album act. In all, victories for both Little Monsters and Katycats! ... Plenty more discussion is a lock as "Roar" and "Applause" grow, leading up to the releases of Perry's album "Prism" (Oct. 22) and Gaga's "ARTPOP" (Nov. 11).

PdogtheDaibutsu 717 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Gaga has a better chance of catching up to Katy in singles than Katy does catching up to Gaga in album sales Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weasel 12,525 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 We knew this tho, Katy is a single artist, Gaga sells albums. I think album sales tell you a lot more about dedication of fans, not trying to shade Katy or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeOfRomance 0 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 if Gaga doesn't lessen down on her provocative and artsy exp pop sound, then sadly Katy is going to surpass Gaga real soon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think album sales tell you a lot more about dedication of fans, not trying to shade Katy or something. I felt it was appropriate to make a thread now that we have a clear confirmation on Gaga sales (the receipts!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redstreak 6,653 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 if Gaga doesn't lessen down on her provocative and artsy exp pop sound, then sadly Katy is going to surpass Gaga real soon Even if it's not as good selling as the stuff Katy Perry throws out, it's what makes her unique and what makes her more inclined to be added to legend status in the future years. Take a moment to think of just flexibility, love, and trust~ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bionic 41,526 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 how can they call her an 'albums act' when it's not like she's sold that many less singles than katy has... doesn't 'albums act' mean successful album but non-successful singles? buy bionic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
