  We present the charged-particle multiplicity distributions over a wide
pseudorapidity range ($-3.4<\eta<5.0$) for pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=$ 0.9, 7,
and 8 TeV at the LHC. Results are based on information from the Silicon Pixel
Detector and the Forward Multiplicity Detector of ALICE, extending the
pseudorapidity coverage of the earlier publications and the high-multiplicity
reach. The measurements are compared to results from the CMS experiment and to
PYTHIA, PHOJET and EPOS LHC event generators, as well as IP-Glasma
calculations.
