RIAA: Camila Cabello’s 5x Platinum ‘Bad Things’ Becomes Her Second Highest-Certified Hit

Published: Tuesday 15th Feb 2022 by Rashad

Camila Cabello‘s ‘Bad Things,’ her 2016 Billboard Hot 100 top 5 hit duet with Machine Gun Kelly, was recently certified 5x Platinum for sales of 5 million copies in the United States alone.

Look inside to see how the shiny new plaque from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) set a new personal milestone for the songstress.

At the pinnacle of its popularity, ‘Bad’ peaked at #4 on the Hot 100 – becoming both acts’ first top 10 hit.

Years later, that positive reception continues as evidenced by recent updates from the RIAA that announce the Futuristics-produced tune is now 5x Platinum.

Becoming her second-highest certified single as a solo act in the process (leaving behind the 4x Platinum 2018 hit ‘Never Be the Same’), ‘Bad’ – alongside Cabello’s Diamond-certified ‘Havana’ and other gems from her solo discography – helps push her cumulative career sales to 21.5 million (digital).

    • Farrah’s Luggage (8k Camila) February 15, 2022

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 February 15, 2022

      • Clarks0o00ñ February 15, 2022

        And normani still has no album after 5 years of going solo
        😂😂😂😂😂

  2. Clarks0o00ñ February 15, 2022

    Bad things ’ peaked at #4 on the Hot 100

    ———–BARRIER——–

    Dancing with a stranger- peaked at number 6
    Love lies- peaked at number 9
    Wild side- peaked at number 14
    Motivation- peaked at number 33

    Camila and normani are not on the same level.

    Bad things is better than any song normani has ever released also.

  3. Clarks0o00ñ February 15, 2022

    Machine gun Kelly first and only top 10 hit

    Senorita, shawn Mendes first and only number 1 hit .

    Havana- young thug’s first number one hit/ his most streamed song ever released

    My oh my- dababy’s first number 1 hit on pop radio

    Do u see a pattern?
    😂😂😂😂😂

    • Farrah’s Luggage (8k Camila) February 16, 2022

      You’re trying to convince yourself, not us. It’s so clear now how insecure you are in her actual star power. You know she’s the flop of pop and now you can’t handle it

THEY ALLLLL NEED HELP.

    • Clarks0o00ñ February 16, 2022

      No

      Never be the same. 4x times platinum
      Peaked at number 6
      680 million streams

      Camila debut album hit number one (2x platinum)
      Has only 1 feature. Young thug who was on Havana for 30 seconds.

      That’s solo star power.

      Normani is the one that cant carry a hit on her own
      Cant release an album
      has only 1 solo song that tanked after all the hype

      Camila doesnt even work with big names.
      Young thug wasnt a big name when he was featured on Havana

      Normani on the other hand works with the biggest of names
      Cardi
      Nicki
      Megan
      Ariana
      sam smith
      Khalid
      Max Martin
      Calvin Harris

      All these people were in their prime when she collaborated with them.

      • True Tea February 16, 2022

        Doesn’t matter!

        Mani is the last one standing.

      • Clarks0o00ñ February 16, 2022

        Last one standing with no album

  21. MissMendes February 16, 2022

    Looking back at this song and I realize it was corny as f***

  22. Miami Mami February 16, 2022

    This is the only place where people discuss this girl. “Play that new Camila” or “let’s buy tickets to the Camila concert” said no one ever. I would say she’s overrated but no one rates her at all. She’s kinda just there sometimes. A cute song here and there other than that she’s a non-factor…..

  23. Madonna MDNA February 16, 2022

    They are cute together. Good looking artists! 👍🥰

    • Patsy February 16, 2022

      Na she’s an ugly illgál flop stop the lies 💀💀💀💀💀

  24. Summer February 16, 2022

    And she’s a flop now 😂

  25. Patsy February 16, 2022

    I’m just happy her career is over! Dusty Mexican mònkéy can go clean a toilet 💯

  26. Truth teller February 16, 2022

    Yea. Thanks to mgk. The songs still horrible btw
