Even though I despise IGAF, gotta give props to selling 7 million singles in the U.S. alone. Anyone have the worldwide sales of this?

Yes, Katy will be the only one to have three 5 million selling singles for some time. Gaga and BEP are on the run too, but way behind her so far.
Boom Boom Pow crossed 6 million.

There's a good chance Gaga will get to three 5m+ first. Bad Romance is less than 250k away, it could get there by the end of the year.
But, I also wouldn't be surprised if Katy managed it.
A year or two ago it seemed like the biggest digital seller race was a 3-way affair between Gaga, Taylor, and Rihanna. Now suddenly it seems like Katy is leaving them all in the dust. Gaga would need to have a major rebound with a BTW-era single to really get back in the game.

^ Oh, I overlooked that even though I pointed out Bad Romance above as one of the songs that can reach 5 million this year. You're right.
Katy was many millions behind the top 5 in overall digital sales at the start of this year:
Taylor Swift, 34.3 Black Eyed Peas, 33.8 Rihanna, 33.7 Eminem, 33.3 Lady Gaga, 29.3 Kanye West, 25.3 Beyoncé, 25.1 Nickelback, 23.9 Michael Jackson, 23.2 Katy Perry, 22.6
I don't have my database right now with me, so I can't give a less inaccurate number, but even considering the 5 or 6 million Katy added to her total this year so far, she'd still be at most at 29 million. Still a couple of smashes away from fighting for the top, but "Teenage Dream" certainly is already among the top albums.

Oh thanks for that list! I guess I was focusing on the ladies.
Katy is up to at least 27.5m if you just add up her sales totals listed above.
Katy and Gaga certainly are impressive considering they have had fewer singles/albums than the other artists (although Taylor only has slightly more than them).

Paul Grein's chart blog:
Song Scorecard: Taylor Swift's "Love Story" tops the 5 million mark in digital sales. It's the second country song to reach this plateau, following Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now," which achieved the feat in April. "Love Story" was Swift's first top five hit on the Hot 100.
Snow Patrol's "Chasing Cars" tops the 3 million mark in digital sales. The song reached the top five in October 2006.
Two current hit collabos top the 2 million mark in digital sales this week: "On The Floor" by Jennifer Lopez featuring Pitbull and "Down On Me" by Jeremih featuring 50 Cent.

Not a full list, but I have:
1 song over 7 million 5 songs over 6 million 15 songs over 5 million 42 songs over 4 million 95 songs over 3 million 242 songs over 2 million
All the data up to 3 million songs should be right because they are in the overall top 200 and Paul Grein can easily check for them. 2 million songs is harder to keep check of. There certainly are 5 or more that have crossed that mark but we don't have any recent data for them.

LTWYL finally sells 5 million! And IGF nearing 7.5 million. Wow! If it keeps selling like it does, it could be the first diamond-selling digital single by 2015.

Another song will probably get their first if digital sales keep increasing. I say in a year or so we'll see a song pass 8 million along with IGF

Look at "Low" for instance. It was the first song to cross 4 and 5 million copies -- it seemed unstoppable. Then, came "Just Dance", "Poker Face", "Boom Boom Pow" and "I Gotta Feeling", which all overtook it and reached 6 million first.
I think it'll be hard to see a single cross 8 million at the same time as IGF -- it'll have to be a monster, monster smash -- but I, too, think it is possible some other song may beat IGF on the race to 10 million (if IGF ever gets there).
IGF sales by year:
2009 - 4,426,000 2010 - 2,201,000 2011 - *,752,000 (so far)

Rodze...I agree with all your figures as quoted, as I have the same!!!......so it must be right!!! ;) The next in my list to be upgraded to over 2million is 1,992,000 - EMINEM, DR. DRE & 50 CENT CRACK A BOTTLE which has been there for a while..so i am surprised Paul Grein hasnt said it has gone past the 2m mark as yet!?

How can a song that had the record for the biggest debut (before Flo Rida) not even be at 2 million yet?

How can a song that had the record for the biggest debut (before Flo Rida) not even be at 2 million yet? It probably has reached it by now, but yes, it is a bit weird. The song had a very quick peak and crashed hard. It's large debut was mostly because of hype of new Eminem.

As for why Paul Grein hasn't said anything, it is because he didn't bother looking for that particular song. =\ Songs that with a 100% chance have crossed 2 million:Carry Out - Timbaland feat. Justin Timberlake Fall For You - Seconhand Serenade 90% chance that have crossed 2 million:Waking Up in Vegas - Katy Perry Crack a Bottle - Eminem feat. Dr. Dre and 50 Cent Animal - Neon Trees 50% chance that have crossed 2 million:Dance, Dance - Fall Out Boy Crush - David Archuleta She Will Be Loved - Maroon 5 I hope we'll get the confirmation eventually. But there are so many 2 million songs already it is almost impossible to keep track (without a subscription).
