Since The Warrior era is obviously over, considering she’s already begun working on her third studio album, I figured now would be the best time to post this.
Kesha Rose Sebert (known mononymously as "Ke$ ha"), born March 1st, 1987, is a multiplatinum American recording artist. While she was active in music from a young age, her career didn’t truly begin until she provided vocals for the hit Flo Rida song "Right Round." Ke$ ha chose not to have her name be featured on the song, wanting to make a name for herself. Shortly after, she released Tik Tok, and the rest is history.
➜ This page is a place where you can find verified sources reporting accurate information regarding Ke$ ha’s worldwide sales. This thread begins with January 1st, 2010 and goes to present time. This thread will be updated accordingly when new music charts, new tours start/box scores are posted, and new albums are released. All ATRL rules apply. If you want to shade statistics or numbers, head to SYG. This serves as an aggregation of statistics and discussion pertaining to only those, which also means base talk belongs in the base.
➜ If you find that a source is inaccurate or the link is broken, report it to me and I’ll either remove the statistic and revert it or find another source. Thanks in advance!
➜ Some of these are VERY outdated (i.e. Tik Tok’s sales receipt, which is from early 2011) so it would be helpful if any of you could provide me with more recent sources if you stumble upon them.
➜ This only factors in major music markets. If you want the peak position of a smaller country that wasn’t counted, request it in this thread, or if you’re able to, look it up on Wikipedia.
Key
➤ N/A – Not applicable; Especially when talking about ceritifcations, information does not get transferred correctly (i.e. Tik Tok has not been ceritified in the UK even after selling 300k copies.) This infers that a certification should be present, but a veritifiable source for one can’t be located.
➤ DNC = Did Not Chart; the single or album did not place on the official chart provided by that region
➤ (——–) = This signifies the certification of a given single or album. It appears next to the chart placement of said single or album
➤ (year) = This denotes that a release charted in two different years. These parathesis appear after the position it charted in (generally end-of-year charts) to denote which position was accrued in that given year.
