Just for fun, now that we've seen how the song is doing.  :)  I'm saying #22. Work Bitch sold 50K in 24hours after release and Pretty Girls is on track to sell only half of that (25-30K). Plus streaming is a lot weaker due to the leak. So I'm expecting a lot lower debut than WB.

I have checked last week singles' sales, apart from SYA, other singles' sales are kinda low.Uptown Funk was #3 but only sold 85k on iTunes, it has a strong radio support though.

If Team B gets a good radio payola for Pretty Girls this time, I will say maybe Top 10. :)

idk, maybe my line of thinking isn't in step with y'alls, but I don't believe her debut position will be its peak. and to clarify, i wasn't tryna be pessimistic with #84, I was thinkin it would start low (considering sales started on a Monday, not Tuesday), and then climb up a la Gimme More and Womanizer &  My Life Would Suck Without You and countless other smashes.

 

Hopefully I'm wrong and it just hovers in the Top 10 for a while!!

Let's not forget sales are only 40% of the actual chart. Those songs are still big on the radio while Pretty Girls is not even in the 50 yet (which is understandable because it takes time). Those songs also get huge amount of streaming due to high popularity.

WB sold 176K the first week and went #12

 

I'm hoping Pretty Girls will do more and less as good as WB so Top 15

 

Work Bitch sold 176K. Pretty Girls is expected 120-140K.

Nowadays music market is just less prosperous than 2013 IMO.I remember seeing kworb says PG's sales are just 20% off than WB at this time, but WB dropped really fast after GMA, I don't see this happening to PG, it probably will stay stable on charts and will reach WB's sales the first week.WB can debut at #12, so I'm predicting a little bit higher position about PG lol.

I'm really optimistic I admit that. :)
