We all know that Rihanna is more of a Global popstar than local

Rihanna isn't American though.

The definition of local artist!!
Don't even compare her sales to a global artist's sales!!!!!!

Local ? Not when Stronger just went top 10 in over 16 countries

You do realize that Rihanna and Kelly have sold around the same amount of Worldwide sales right ?

Last year before the Stronger era it was reported that Kelly has sold 23 million albums worldwide. And with Stronger included it's more then 24 million which is the same amount Rihanna has sold.

Rihanna =
25 WW Albums
Average per album WW= 4.1 Million

Kelly Clarkson=
24 WW Albums
Average per album WW= 4.8 Million

Don't give me that racist ****. How the **** do people like Lil Wayne, Drake and Beyoncé sell their albums then ? Rihanna is a single artist and that's a fact.

True, illegal downloading wasn't at it peaked yet, But then how come Rihanna's first album released during the same time of Kelly's 6x platinum album sold only 500k ? So if you want to go technical you can only exclude Thankful since Kelly's second album and Rihanna's first was released at the same time. And still Kelly would have sold more then Rihanna.

And for your information Stronger is well on it's way of selling one million album.

Kelly Clarkson =
11.6 Million sales in the US
Average of 2.3 Million per album (5 Albums)

Rihanna=
8.4 Million sales in the US
Average of 1.4 million per album (6 Albums)

Rihanna is a single artist and there is nothing you can say or do to change that.

Where did I say/ imply that she isnt a single artist? All I said is Kelly is marketed to a larger group of the album buying audience than rihanna. Is there any reason why you're so pressed and angry?

Kelly has one album that gives her average albums a big boost, if you compare sales for when both released albums the same year rihanna outsells Kelly. At the end of the day her sales aren't amazing but they're consistent.

Outside of US/UK, Rihanna total: 9,763,015
Outside of US/UK, Beyonce Total: 8,750,000

Average per album Outside of UK/US:

Beyonce: 2,187,500
Rihanna: 1,627,169

I don't get this global nonsense. She's just as supposedly "local" as Beyonce.

Get them in check

OK so if she sold 60M singles WW you're telling me she only sold 5 million singles outside the US? Something isn't adding up

I'm speaking facts, not sure about WW Totals, but it was confirmed that Rihanna was the biggest selling digitial artist in history, with over 55 million sold in the US last year..
