In fact, it racked up more than 1.5 million streams within its first 24 hours (and hasn't slowed down since).

Fun Facts:
1. Paris's all-time favorite fan encounter didn't even happen at one of her own shows.
"I went to a gig alone back at the Royal Albert Hall in May. It was my first time going to a gig alone, and during the interval, I got recognized by a few groups of girls who were all standing near me. We chatted and said hello, and I ended up watching the rest of the gig with them. It was really sweet. They were so lovely and it was a really great show."
