Lady Gaga’s “Harlequin” Album Sales Plummet as “Joker 2” Movie Flops
“Harlequin” Suffers Due to Disappointing “Joker: Folie a Deux” Box Office
“Joker 2” Box Office Failure Impacts “Harlequin” Sales
Lady Gaga’s newly released album, “Harlequin,” was intended as a companion piece to the much-anticipated sequel, “Joker: Folie a Deux.” However, the film’s disastrous box office performance has had a devastating impact on “Harlequin” sales.
“Harlequin” Sales Plummet in Second Week
After an initial week of release, “Harlequin” dropped dramatically to number 97 on the iTunes charts. The album’s second-week sales were negligible, resulting in a total of under 30,000 copies sold. This significant drop indicates a lack of public interest in the album, likely tied to the film’s poor reception.
A Missed Opportunity for Gaga’s “Harlequin”
Gaga poured her heart and soul into “Harlequin,” which features some of her most captivating work yet. However, with the movie’s dismal performance, Universal Music has shown little interest in promoting the album. The lack of marketing has left “Harlequin” struggling to gain traction.
“Harlequin” May Still Have a Chance with the Grammys
One potential lifeline for “Harlequin” lies in the Grammy Awards. The album’s jazz-infused style could garner attention in the jazz categories. However, the movie’s failure likely diminishes the chances of Gaga’s original songs being nominated for Best Song at the Oscars, another avenue for recognition.
Gaga’s Preemptive Release of “Die with a Smile”
Gaga’s release of her duet with Bruno Mars, “Die with a Smile,” prior to “Joker 2” might have been a strategic move. The singer likely anticipated the potential fallout from the film’s performance and proactively positioned herself for a smooth transition to her upcoming 7th album.
While “Harlequin” may be relegated to “Lost Gem” status for now, its musical merit remains undeniable. Hopefully, with time, the album will find its appreciative audience.
