Kevin Federline released his album, "Playing With Fire," in Oct. 2006 while Britney Spears had no new releases in 2006.
I was wondering if any of Spears' albums outsold Ferderline's over the whole year, even though his was a new release...
Also, Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson both released new albums in 2006.
Nick's almost doubled Jessica's sales in the first week. Did he end up coming out on top in the year-end tally?

Hi Steven,
In 2006, Britney Spears' albums sold 461,000. That figure includes four studio albums, a greatest hits, a remix album and her "Chaotic" CD/DVD.
Kevin Federline's "Playing With Fire" has sold 16,000 so far.
Switching gears: Nick Lachey is the winner in the Nick v. Jessica battle.
His "What's Left Of Me" album sold 587,000 in 2006 while Jessica Simpson's "A Public Affair" sold a relatively dismal 279,000 last year. The latter album only spent nine weeks on the chart.
The album needed more promotion ... yes i know, it still might not have been a huge sucess even then but she would be probably be at like 600k right now. She didnt even perform Public Affair anywhere! Nick was smart, he knew the only way he could get attention was to talk about Jessica everywhere so he blabbed to every possible source. He had a pretty big promo trail for his album.
The fact still remains, her album is better than his.
Yeah, it's a shame what happened, APA definitely deserved to sell a lot more.
Anywayz, 461k is impressive for Britney! That's almost double of what Jessica sold with a new studio album and only 100K+ less than Nick with an album that had a Top 10 single on Billboard!
Well, let's begin buying Public Affair.
Lol, i like her, i like public affair, but i don't know, i see her more as a celebrity(paris hilton, lindsay lohan) type
PS that means that if you average out the 7 projects, the average sales still are higher than Kevin's one album, meaning that at least one of her albums by itself outsold Playing With Fire likely years after it came out (unless it was Chaotic)
A Public affair.....such a good album.
Nick was smart, he knew the only way he could get attention was to talk about Jessica everywhere so he blabbed to every possible source. He had a pretty big promo trail for his album.
