Lady Gaga achieves ten one-million+ selling singles on the Billboard Hot 100.
Quote:
As "You and I" sold another 95,000 downloads last week, the song indeed passed the 1-million threshold. http://www.billboard.com/#/column/ch...2.story?page=2Here's a rundown of the digital sales to-date of Gaga's singles: 6,388,000, "Poker Face" 6,348,000, "Just Dance" 4,939,000, "Bad Romance" 3,285,000, "Born This Way" 3,126,000, "Paparazzi" 3,011,000, "Telephone" 2,433,000, "LoveGame" 2,285,000, "Alejandro" 2,036,000, "The Edge of Glory" 1,003,000, "You and I" ... and, Lady Gaga's total album sales: 4,312,000, "The Fame" 1,827,000, "Born This Way" 1,510,000, "The Fame Monster" 249,000, "The Remix" As for "Judas," the song is 178,000 downloads from reaching 1 million in digital sales. If it continues to sell 3,000 a week, as it has averaged the last two weeks (no guarantee, since interest in the song could wane, considering it was not at all a radio hit on the scale of all her other singles), it would reach the million mark approximately 14 months from now. Congratulations to Gaga but poor Judas

Wow. That's a big acheivement (although I don't like most of those 10 songs
).I wonder who has the most million-selling singles over there. I'd place my bets on Eminem or Rihanna or Lil Wayne. If Judas makes 1 million aswell, that would probably make her one of the few artists to have all their singles sell over a million. Pretty much every artist I can think of, has had a few flops during their career. Lady Gaga still hasn't had a flop single yet really (although I guess Judas is close). EDIT: I've found a list on ATRL of the artsists with most million sellers: 24, Lil Wayne, "Lollipop" (4.3) 19, Rihanna, "Love the Way You Lie" (5.1) 17, Eminem, "Love the Way You Lie" (5.1) 15, T-Pain, "Low" (6) 14, Taylor Swift, "Love Story" (5.1) 12, the Black Eyed Peas, "I Gotta Feeling" (7.5, the all-time best-selling download) 10, Britney Spears, "Womanizer" (3.2) 9, Beyonce, "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" (4.7) 9, Kelly Clarkson, "My Life Would Suck Without You" (2.5) 9, Ke$ha, "TiK ToK" (6) 9, Lady Gaga, "Poker Face" (6.4) 9, Ludacris, "Break Your Heart" (3.5) It looks a bit out of date, apart from the fact that I can't think of 9 Ke$ha songs that have sold a million. |

What, Lil Wayne has 24 singles selling a million?!
![]() Poor Judas. To be fair to him, he had the space of like 3 weeks to shine before TEOG swooped in. He'll catch up one day.

Good for her, that's pretty great Although there is a decline in singles sales lately, it's still a big achievement.At least there's one country that liked 'You And I' ![]() Honestly, considering that it charted since the very 1st week of the album's release due to strong digital sales, I bet that it would have sold 1,5-2 million there by now if the VMA's performance was better and if she hadn't already performed it a thousand times since 2010 ![]() Quote:

that can't be true because she's only had six singles (Tik Tok, Blah Blah Blah, Your Love Is My Drug, Take It Off, We R Who We R and Blow) and three featured artist singles (Right Round, My first kiss and Dirty Picture and Dirty Picture wasn't released in the US and charted at 96).
Perhaps the Till the World Ends remix she did with Britney and Nicki sold a million. That would add up to 9. Dirty Picture actally sold quite well, but charted so low due to not being a single, and hence getting next to no radio airplay, but it spent quite a long time in the top 100 on iTunes. But I also highly doubt its sold a million. |

Just 1.5 copies for Fame monster. Really? Is that all? Then again, it was considered a sole album in the US where as it was a joint album in other countries

Good for her shame about Judas but it's not a surprise it didn't get a lot of airplay in America.

You'll also notice that bizarrely the lead single off each respective album has the most sales...and the following singles progressively lose sales. |

Honey, the song wasn't actually made about Judas the betrayer and there's nothing controversial about the song tbh.
I know it wasnt but it was a attempt to get attention in a way that madonna did many many years ago with like a prayer and issac ...she is such a copy cat |

I think the reason Like a Prayer sold well and Judas didn't is because Like a Prayer is a good song and Judas is boring (well, the chorus is really boring, the verses aren't too bad). It has nothing to do with the lyrics, and nobody is copying anybody imo.
