Artist News Digital
Katy Perry well downloaded
By Chris Cooke | Published on Monday 30 June 2014
Katy Perry is the top selling digital artist of all time, in case you wondered. Well, that’s what the Recording Industry Association Of America reckons, and who are we to doubt the RIAA’s math(s)? Perry’s singles have been downloaded over 72 million times worldwide, says the American industry’s trade body.
Perry last week picked up an award from the RIAA for the stat achievement (a moment she Instagrammed). Apparently, her 2010 hit ‘Firework’ has racked up the most downloads, at nine million sales. ‘California Gurls’ and ‘ET’ have sold seven million each, while ‘Dark Horse’, ‘Hot N Cold’ and ‘Teenage Dream’ have all been download six million times.
