In addition to ranking as the 4th highest digital song debut for a female artist and 8th highest ever, the platinum smash debuted at #1 in 65 countries, topping the iTunes overall Top Songs and Pop Songs charts for four weeks. Recent accolades include the 2014 People's Choice Award for Favorite Breakout Artist, Choice Female Artist and Choice Single ("Problem"), the Young Influencer Award at the iHeartRadio Music Awards and the Radio Disney Chart Topper award.
