While enjoying the seemingly unstoppable run of her hit comeback single, ‘Flowers,’ earlier this year, Miley Cyrus learned her biggest-selling single to date – 2009’s ‘Party in the USA‘ – had been upgraded to 12x Platinum (a measure denoting sales equivalence of 12 million in the USA) by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

At the time, the feat put her in a three-way tie with Katy Perry‘s ‘Firework‘ and Mariah Carey‘s ‘All I Want for Christmas‘ for 1st place among female-led songs.

The trio held the title for a mere 7 months before singer-songwriter Lorde snatched the crown with her 2013 hit, ‘Royals,’ which was certified 13x Platinum on September 29.

Fans of the New Zealand-reared could barely enjoy the win, however, before Miley’s ‘Party’ crashed the party with yet another certification update – less than two weeks later.
