She has sold 14 million combined tracks and ringtones in the U.S alone to date and 15 million worldwide, including her smash breakthrough single 'TiK ToK' which has sold over 8.5 million combined units. 'Animal' has been certified Gold or Platinum in six markets and is the biggest selling debut album from an international female in 2010 in the UK.
