People stop fighting! What an obsession with numbers. The important thing here is that this is what happens when you let a not very talented girl be so successful (teen boom and all that, pure marketing product with no talent for music, only for performing and for just a brief period of 5 years). The girl will be happier living her life. It´s obvious, she wants it and there´s no reason for her to stay suffering cos she knows she doesn´t have it. Also, so tired of those discounts shit when everybody does it, even the currently very successful Bruno Mars did it last year so he could say (well his label) that he had a #1 album (when he didn´t need it at all). Or Katy Perry fans talking? Girl had big discounts last week as well. And as big as a promo machine, huge clear channel deals and everything as everybody else. Stop fighting over absurd things everybody does. How about the music? The talent? The enjoyment?
