I don't know if this will be closed, but I believe this is confirmation enough.

Pretty obvious choice...I think this will do better than Thinking of You but not as good as her first 2 singles. I predict it'll peak in the lower half of the top 10 on CHR.
I love Thinking of You, but this probably should've been the 3rd single and then TOY should've been 4th. This would've been a better follow-up to IKAG/HNC & the jump from this to TOY would've as been as...dramatic as the one from IKAG/HNC to TOY was.

This should have been the third single. They slowed down too fast and dramatically.

^I agree. To go from two very uptempo almost dance tracks to a ballad wasn't a very good decision. TOY might of done a lot better if this was released first.

This is OK. I feel like there's something missing from it though, idk. It's a good choice though.
I predict a peak of anywhere between 5-10.

I think the hype around her has worn off. Probably Top 20 nothing higher.

You guys complain too much. If VEGAS was single #3 and flopped like TOY, than you would say they shouldn't have done 3 uptempo tracks after each other and should have done a slower track. VEGAS will be a hit. Case closed.

This song treads no new ground the way I hear it. I expect it to chart about the same as TOY. They should have gone with OOTB, that could have gone top 10 on catchiness alone.

Wow. Good work Capitol getting this out right away. They are handling this era pretty well.

This should be interesting because I think this song is stylistically very similar to IDNHU.

Nooo I want 'One Of The Boys'! This is a good song and can be even better with a great video, so they better splash the cash on that.

Glad this is a single. They should make it the last single though off the album.

The title track or IYCAM would have been better choices imo. This could make top 10 I suppose. Hopefully it'll at least outpeak the previous single.

Good single choice. Not many good options after this though--probably only Mannequin and IYCAM.

The lone big hit on the album after IKAG and HNC, so to me this is the only conceivable choice for next single. It should have been 3rd and ended the era, then she would have had a perfect top ten record going into her 2nd album. I say #4 peak CHR, #7 peak H100.

I see this peaking just outside the Top 10.

I think IYCAM, OOTB, or Fingerprints would have been better.

Obvious choice. It would've done much better if TOY hadn't been released first, though.

YES! I can't wait for this video, she's apparently starting to shoot it next week! "Hot N Cold" just re-entered the iTunes Top 20 but hopefully it won't stop this of becoming another hit for Katy. :) And I have a feeling that this may be indeed the final single from the OOTB era.

If You Can Afford Me needs to be the next single, hopefully she gets one.
