It's mind boggling isn't it-how is she doing this well.

Good on her, she deserves it.

Even her "flop" single is over 140K.

It's pretty incredible. GaGa and Black Eyed Peas are just unstoppable right now. They should do a collab.

Do we need yet another thread on this overrated artist? Shes not bloody god, she doesn't deserve 1000% success than other artists with equal or better songs.

Why post in it then? If your not keen on her then it's pointless opening the thread right?

Probably, or just the same amount. I think the video will be impressive so that could boost.

Its incredible. I never used to like her, but loved her songs. But after hearing her sing a capella and hearing she's classically trained has really made me warm to her. Have never heard her album though.

I think she's a true artist. She's worked hard to get where she is now and she's extremely greatful to her fans for supporting her. She comes across as really nice too.

Make it 86, 101 for Telephone, as just added my sale! The only thing that worries me is that people keep asking me if Telephone & Speakerphone are the same thing, shame Beyonce slipped that out just before Telephone hit, otherwise, I think there would be a lot more fuss about their collaboration.

I saw her Monster Ball Tour on Friday & it was epic - really really great showcase for her enormous talent!

Love game sold pretty well after a low peak. Sorry to echo what others have said but just wanted to say it.

*sigh* I thought the purpose of a forum was to click on a thread and make a post about something that interests you, and from your post, you don't sound it.

See, if i didn't know much about Gaga but liked her, i'd probably say she's overrated, but...

-She writes all of her own songs (some produced and added bits by redone and devilchild).
-She has been bankrupt numerous times because of her stageshows
-She actually cares about music and her pop category. i.e. not manufactured crap like JLS.
-She is her own boss, she doesn't let anyone tell her what not to do. Which is probably why she has had the biggest success in one year than some do in their career.

Technically it's a discussion forum, so he can click on this thread to put forward an opinion contary to what is espoused by the OP and others, and really shouldnt be criticised for it. I mean this isnt a "We all love Gaga" thread where everyone goes on about how much they love her, is it? It is a discussion on her sales.

Maybe the 6 Grammy Award-winner Beyonce?
I think Lady Gaga has done extraordinarily well and I'm pleased for her. It was only until I saw her Brits performance did I really rate her as an excellent singer

It's just another indication, in the long line of indications, that tell us that the Education system in the UK is failing. A woman that dresses like a circus freak to garner attention, because god forbid she could do that with her music alone, is elevated to god status.

She has 16 in total (not including 3 with DC). To be fair though, she has been around longer than GaGa. I'm sure GaGa will win loads too in the future.

I love them both.

The US and UK have very different definitions.

Platinum in the UK means 300,000, but in the US, it means 1,000,000.

A diamond means 10x the US platinum so it's 10 million
