General

Selena has more promo lined up than Avril.
Which song will become the bigger hit?
Note:
4 weeks ago, everyone laughed at Avril and Selena having any success. Now both girls seem to have moderate hits on their hands. In a poll with Chris Brown, Selena, Avril, Jo Bros, and Kelly in it, y'all dismissed Avril and Selena, yet these girls have had the best week out of all those artists this week.
Selena. Avril has more front loaded sales because she's got a big following from over the years, but in the end of the day, the better song, more promo and star power is going to carry the singles. And Selena beats Avril in those aspects.
Love both songs but Selena. She's higher on radio and is about to overtake Avril on iTunes after her performance and she has even more promo lined up. She's also beating Avril on YouTube.
Avril cant even hit top 5 on itunes anymore, how sad
Who cares. She's already sold 30 million-something albums worldwide. She's probably loaded on money based on her first two years in the industry alone.
