Peep Pop starlet Katy Perry on the cover of the latest issue of Billboard magazine. The quirky 25 year old’s feature is accompanied by an insightful article (in which she talks her musical journey so far, new album ‘Teenage Dream’ and her team’s plan to make her an album’s artist, as opposed to a singles artist). Click here to read the article in its entirety.
Katy Perry will never be an album’s artist, she will only be able to shift singles, as people are only interested in the song, not the artist, just ask rihanna!!
agreed. She is the white rihanna in terms of sales. But she actually has talent and a great voice.
new queen of pop????? hahahahahahahahahahahah !!! now that’s a good joke!
Oh please stop the delusion people. Turning everything about Rihanna. Good Girl Gone Bad sold over 7.5 million worldwide, so the girl can push albums. Rated R still sold over 3 million worldwide when the era was written off from the start. And to say Katy Perry has more talent than Rihanna is just delusional. Damn, its okay to not like someone, but stop the LIES.
@TRUTH I totally agree with u. Katy is more talented than riri.
^^ he didnt say that any way katy looks nice and i think she will be an album artist not singles artits
Me no likey the cover 🙁
WHO THE F*** GAVE THE OK TO CALL KATY PERRY THE NEW QUEEN OF POP!?
@truth i agree with u but Rated R has sold 2.3 million I lovwe to correct people

Agreed! People are saying that Rihanna sold 7.5 million copies of GGGB but that was after she RERELEASED it, and the album still didn’t debut at #1. I mean if you are going to use album stats, at least get the facts straight. A person who is able to sell albums doesn’t have to rerelease it and add more songs on it for people to buy it.

WHO THE F*** GAVE THE OK TO CALL KATY PERRY THE NEW QUEEN OF POP!?
______________________________________________________________________
Only on Billboard and Rolling Stone (i.e. Jay-Z is the king of America *rolls eyes*). ONLY. I guess they figure it will sell them more copies, I don’t know.
The New Queen of pop ????
That is SUCH an insult to Madonna.
Katy Perry’s music is good…but she hasn’t really done anything.
I find it hilarious how the music industry is.
If they gave California Gurls a no. 1 spot.
Then they definitely cheated GAGA out of Bad Romance.
& If they give her a no. 1 for Teenage Dream
they might as well have gave her one for Paparazzi.
She’s a good artist with catchy songs, but…….
New Queen of Pop? Somebody get my casket because I’m offically DEAD…
Good to know that her lebel thinks selling albums is important. I guess that’s how labels make their money from artists. I don’t think Katy’s album will have stellars sales IMO. QUEEN of POP?? oook.
Rihanna is the ultimate singles artist : 7#1’s and 20 million+ digital sales… but LESS than 4 million ALBUMS sold in the US. it just doesn’t add up and I think that’s why she’s having major troubles with her tour here in the states.
New Queen of Pop?????????? You gotta be kidding me! Delusion is a sickness I see!
New Queen of Pop? Didn’t know Madonna died…
Im sick of dis overrated one hit wonder.
another 1-2 hits and shes DONE.
#realtalk
How is she the new queen of pop
wen bey,britney,gaga n riri r already in da queue
KATY PERRY DOES HAVE MORE TALENT THAN RIRI!! AND HER LAST ALBUM “ONE OF THE BOYS” SOLD 8 MILLION WORLD WIDE! AND IT IS IN THE TOP TEN ON ITUNES! AT #5!WHERE IS RIHANNA?? AND HER VIDEO FOR “CALFORNIA GURLS” IS #1 ON ITUNES! CALIFORNIA GURLS WAS #1 ON ITUNES BEFORE EMINEM AND TAIO CRUZ SONG CAME! BUT KATY IS #1 ON POP SONGS CHART AND THE RADIO CHARTS! IT BROKE POP AND RADIO RECORDS! IT WAS #1 FOR 6 WEEKS ON THE HOT 100! AND HER LAST SINGLE “I KISSED A GURL” WAS #1 ON THE HOT 100 FOR 7 WEEKS! CALIFORNIA GURLS IS STILL CLIMBING UP THE CHARTS! SINCE IT’S RELEASE IN JUNE! AND HER LATEST SINGLE “TEENAGE DREAM” IS #5 ON ITUNES IN IT’S RELEASE IN JUST LIKE 3 DAYS RELEASED JULY 22,2020! AND CALIFORNIA GURLS IS #3 ON ITUNES! IT STILL CLIMBING UP ITUNES CHARTS! AND HER ALBUM “ONE OF THE BOYS” IS CLIMBING UP ITUNES ALBUM CHARTS! I BET YOU ALL WHEN “TEENAGE DREAM” ALBUM RELEASES IT WILL BE #1 WORLD WIDE! KATY OWNS THIS SUMMER AND PROB THE SPRING,FALL AND WINTER!
^^ ….???
But anywayss…
Rihanna can’t be called the queen of pop because
she’s completely a singles artist…i mean what else has she done ??
& Beyonce can’t really be called the queen of pop
because she not really pop….she’s like the next
Tina Turner & she was really pop.
& Katy’s album is randomly now at #5 on Itunes…
because they’re selling the album for $6.99 as a special.
It’s not anywhere on the Billboard 200.
@BADD ARE YOU RETARDED OR SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN’T READ!!! AND TINA TURNER WAS NEVER POP!!!! TINA TURNER DOES MOSTLY ROCK MUSIC!!!! THAT’S WHY PEOPLE CALL HER “THE QUEEN OF ROCK AND ROLL”!!! BEYONCE IS THE NEXT TINA TURNER YES! BUT BEYONCE’S MUSIC IS MOSTLY R&B NOT POP! & SO WHAT DOES SELLING THE ALBUM FOR 6.99 HAVE TO DO WITH KATY PERRY BEING AT #5 LADY GAG-A’S ALBUM THE FAME MONSTER IS LISTED AS A SPECIAL TOO,BUT IT’S NOT IN THE TOP TEN! THIS IS KATY PERRY’S TIME,THIS IS THE TIME FOR HER TO EARN BACK ALL THE SUCCESS THAT HAS BEEN LOST PREVIOUSLY DUE TO POST GAG-A AND RIRI AND BEY! NOW IT’S KATY’S TURN TO SHINE! I HOPE “TEENAGE DREAM GOES TO #1 ON ITUNES MUSIC,VIDEO,ALBUM! HOT 100,POP CHARTS,RADIO CHARTS,DIGITAL CHARTS,GOT 200,CLUB/DANCE CHARTS AND ELECTRONIC ALBUM CHARTS! GO KATY
Britney is the Queen of Pop. BTW, compare Perry and Ri’s accolades on wikepedia and you will see that they are similar but Ri has sold more albums. Katy’s last album only sold 1.2 million in the US. Ri has sold over 5 million albums in the US while Britney has sold over 32 milion.
No no
Madonna is the queen of pop , Britney is the princess of pop
and that’s it !
@REALLY BRITNEY SOLD SO MANY RECORDS BECAUSE IT WAS 1999 AND THE EARLY 2000 WHEN ALBUM SOLD THAT MANY COPIES NOW IT’S HARD FOR ARTISTS TO SELL 1 MILLION BUT KATY PERRY SOLD 8 MILLION COPIES OF “ONE OF THE BOYS” AND LADY GAGA SOLD 10 MILLION OF “THE FAME”!!! IT’S OK! I BELIEVE KATY’S NEXT ALBUM WILL MAKE UP FOR ALL OF THAT LOST!!! KATY IS A GREAT ARTIST! AND HER LASTEST SINGLE “TEENAGE DREAM” IS THE BEST! I LOVE “CALIFORNIA GURL” BUT I LOVE “TEENAGE DREAM” NOW MORE! THEY ARE BOTH GREAT SINGLES! {{TEENAGE DREAM DUE IN AUGUST 24,2010}} I WILL GET 10 COPIES PLUS I WILL BE AT THE ALBUM SIGNING! I HOPE THIS ALBUM GOES TO #1 WORLD WIDE!!!
MADONNA=250 MILLION RECORDS SOLD!! KYLE MINOGUE=63 MILLION RECORDS BRITNEY=85 MILLION RECORDS SOLD! GAGA=15 MILLION RECORDS SOLD! BEYONCE=OVER 35 MILLION ALBUMS AND SINGLES! RIHANNA=20 MILLION RECORDS SOLD! MADONNA IS THE QUEEN,BRITNEY IS THE PRINCESS!!
VERY PRETTY COVER!
^^ ummm SIT DOWN.
You’re ridiculous.
Btw I meant to say wasn’t really pop for Tina Turner.
But anywayss,,
& when I was talking about Rihanna & Beyonce.
I definitely wasn’t talking to you..so umm.
STAY IN YOUR LANE.
Lmaooo at she’s coming back to earn back success.
You fail as a Katy stan.
She IS only up there because it’s $6.99
So GET OVER IT.
Where is her album on the Billboard 200
since it wasn’t because of the special & she’s
“earning back her success” ??
Exactly…lmao.
Katy is completely a singles artist.
so once again…GET OVER IT.
& none of The Fame: Monsters are even on special.
& she did not sell 8 million albums !!!
so stop the lying just because your fav is WEAK.
Lmaoo you wack stans kill me.
It’s great that you hope all of those things for Katy.
But it would be best if you got like RIhanna stans
& aimed low for her….then you wouldn’t be
disappointed when she isn’t up to par with what
you expected & you’ll have alot more to say.
Since clearly you have nothing good to say about
her now. I mean even RIHANNA stans could drag
you….you have nothing on Katy.
But you’re right about one thing. She’s having so much
success now because GAGA, RIhanna, & Beyonce
aren’t here. But GAGA might release DITD in the U.S
like she did in AUS…& they’re both coming out with
new cd’s so…..yeah.
smh.
Go Katy…i guess.
“Her team’s plan to make her an album artist” ? That’s it , people just put lyrics in her mouth and she…”sings”.
After her breakthrough, I thought she was a kind of Lilly Allen but she’s just a radio artist like Rihanna. “Gotta hit #1 even if it’s crap”. A Billboard artist for sure.
^^^^ KATY IS ONLY UP THERE BECAUSE THE ALBUM IS 6.99 SO IS LADY GAGA BUT SHE IS NOT IN THE TOP TEN!!!! LADY GAGA BOTH THE FAME MONSTER AND THE FAME ARE ALBUMS UNDER $9!!!!! SO WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT B**** TELLING ME TO STAY IN MY LANE! I’LL GO WHERE EVER I F****** PLEASE! KAY DON’T TRY TO COME AT ME!!!!! AND YES KATY PERRY DID SELL 8 MILLION COPIES OF “ONE OF THE BOYS”!!!!! IF SHE DIDN’T SELL THIS THEN HOW MUCH DID SHE SELL! DON’T WORRY B**** KATY IS COMING FOR ALL OF THEM SHE IS MAKING THIS A COMPETITION! FIRST IT WAS ONLY GAGA ATOP OF THE CHARTS NOW IT’S KATY,EMINEM/RIRI,KE$HA,M.I.A,KYLIE MINOGUE ECT.! BUT KATY IS THE ONE RULING THE CHARTS NOW! AND SHE WILL BE FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS! WE THE FANS BUY HER SINGLES AND CD SO WE DICTATE WEATHER WE WANT HER SINGLE TO BE #1 OR 100! WE ARE THE ONES THAT WILL BE BUYING “TEENAGE DREAM” SINGLE AND ALBUM! ALSO “CALIFORNIA GURLS” SINGLE! KATY IS COMING FOR RIRI,GAGA,KE$HA,BEY AND MANY OTHERS!
@MISHA ISN’T KE$HA’S SONGS ARE CRAPPY AND SOME OF BRITNEY SPEARS SONGS ARE CRAPPY TOO BUT PEOPLE STILL BUY IT! AND BRITNEY HAS SOLD 85 MILLION ALBUMS! SOME OF LADY GAGA’S SONGS ARE CRAPPY!!!{{RIHANNA IS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL ARTIST IN THE WORLD!}} KATY’S “ONE OF THE BOYS” SOLD 8 MILLION COPIES! BRITNEY IS COMING BACK OUT! ALONG WITH MADONNA,RIHANNA,GAGA, AND BEYONCE!!! KATY IS RULING THE CHARTS THIS SUMMER! WE THE FANS WILL MAKE HER A ALBUM ARTIST BY BUYING HER ALBUM! “TEENAGE DREAM AUGUST 24,2010”
Again, whoever in charge of these magazine covers, titling these upcoming artists as the next this, or that, needs to be slapped into Neverary. Katy is JUST now getting true limelight, it is TOO EARLY for titles like this, especially how can you call Katy something like that when we have Gaga?
^^
Don’t try to come at you ??
Lmao…i just did. & what have you done…??
Nothing.
FALL BACK. & once again…STAY IN YOUR LANE.
Katy isn’t coming for anyone…
lmaooo that’s the funniest one yet.
There’s nothing really good you can say about
your fav except she has California Gurls.
You say she’s ruling the charts ???
Yet all she has is California Gurls as a #1.
Which is now gone because of Em & Rihanna.
Itunes charts is what ppl buy on Itunes…
the Billboard Hot 100 & 200 are what counts
& where ppl get all of their awards from.
It doesn’t matter that she’s #5 on Itunes when
she’s NOWHERE on the Billboard 200.
Once again & that’s only because she’s selling
her album now for $6.99. You can’t say SHYT
about GAGA because both of her albums
are not only on the 200 list but on six other charts
& is topping even after being on there for
almost TWO YEARS…lmao
& she’s broken so many records…our list
for GAGA can go on for days….Katy’s is 2 #1’s.
The Fame: Monster is the only album under
9.99…& they were ALWAYS like that because
they only had 9 songs & was a re-release of
The Fame….& can you prove that Katy sold 8 million WW ?
Where did you get that number from.
It sounds like you pulled it out of your ass.
#YOU FAIL.
Enough of the lying.
Don’t be mad because your fav can’t top anybody.
Katy isn’t coming for anyone.
You get a BITCHPLEASE & a H** SIT DOWN !!

BEYONCE IS THE TOP EARNING FEMALE ARTIST OF THE YEAR WITH $83 MILLION! RIHANNA GGB SOLD OVER 7 MILLION! RIHANNA NOW HAS SOLD OVER 20 MILLION AND HAS 7#1’S!!!! SO FAR KATY PERRY HAS 3 POP #1’S AND 2 BILLBOARD #1’S! WHEN TEENAGE DREAM HIT’S #1 IT WILL BE HER 3RD BILLBOARD #1 AND HER 4TH POP #1!!!! “TEENAGE DREAM DID NOT DEBUT ON THE BILLBOARD HOT 100 YET! IF WAS RELEASED 3 DAYS AGO AND IT IS ALREADY ON ITUNES! ITUNES IS A MAJOR CHART YOU DUMBASS!! ITUNES IS FOR MUSIC DOWNLOADS AND DOWNLOAD SALES COUNT TOO!!! IF KATY PERRY RELEASES 5 SINGLE AND THEY ALL GO TO #1 SHE’S HAVE BILLBOARD #1’S CALIFORNA GURLS INCLUDED AND 8TH POP CHART #1’S!!!!!
