No because it's still a huuuge decline

Avril deserved better, at least the critics agree.

Oh well? 82 countries at number 1 isn't to be scoffed at. Seems this is just another opportunity for a bit of Gaga bashing.

Gaga>>>>>>Rihanna

Yeah I don't get how going from a peak of 75 down to 61 is '2-3' points lol

The obsession is real.

And you hated Rated R.

im joking btw

ew the obsession, stay checking gagas career tho

Actually in terms of sales in america she hasnt dropped that much. If you take into account the 99p for BTW it accounts for roughly 400kish... but still Eminem killing that **** /stan

omg what sort of obsession, you're like one of those in denial little monsters

Anyway, this time last year Rihanna opened with 238,000 even though she has 11 #1's and she had the biggest hit in the world at the time, gaga's still outselling her with a #5 hit

Stay obsessed

Just realised this is gonna go on all week :/

Can people stop acting like Eminem has just sold the most of the decade or something, Taylor Swift sold almost 2x more in a week

Its current as in this week not last year...why so on the defense???

Lady Gaga's new album ARTPOP is predicted to sell an estimated 260,000 copies in its first week of sales in the US.

The new figures come after industry experts predicted an initial pre-release forecast of 300k-350k.

ARTPOP is on course to debut at number one, though the estimated figures would mean a 75% drop in first week sales from 2011's Born This Way which sold 1.1 million copies in its debut week, according to Billboard

I don't get it though... did BTW sell 1.1 million WW or just in the US in its first week?

Ah okay it was in the US, thought it was worldwide for some reason lol

Yeah sorry US... and 440k were 99p...so its not representative... her sales decline would only be 40-50 percent....and its released after a huge previous week...I think its fairly decent....

No worries lol... yeah, take away that 400k which she probably wouldn't have got if not for the 99p deal and it doesn't seem too bad... a shame, but it's just matching what other female pop stars are getting. Applause is still doing well in the US (13th week in the Top Ten) and Dope is in the Top Ten as well... who knows, it might suprise us lol
