Hi there! I'm Cartoon network freak and my review for your GAN is going to arrive within this week. Overall, after my first reading of the article, it looks good! Best and until then, Cartoon network freak (talk) 12:31, 6 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • collaborated with producers → collaborated with several producers

    • Not sure about the last one, it could be interpreted as meaning that it sold that many copies after being certified Gold '''tAD''' (talk) 09:33, 8 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
Then leave it this way; it's OK also. Cartoon network freak (talk) 19:32, 8 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • and some reviews did not include it. → causing some record reviews not including it.

I've reworked this section slightly. I meant "celebrity" as a conceptual noun, like "fame", but I've changed it to "celebrity culture" so that there will be no more misunderstanding. '''tAD''' (talk) 19:50, 8 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Music videos edit

  • "I Am Not a Robot", featuring much body glitter. → "I Am Not a Robot", which made use of several body glitter.

Outcome:   On hold On-hold for 7 days. Besides some words repetitions and few grammar issues, this article is well-written, and you could consider nominating it for FA-status like Electra Heart. Best, Cartoon network freak (talk) 16:55, 9 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
