It debuted at number seven on the Billboard 200 with first-week sales of
116,000 copies, but far from the first-week sales of 323,000 with her previous release, Rainbow in 1999.Glitter became Carey's lowest peaking album in the United States, with her second album Emotions (1992), coming in at number four. It remained in the album's chart for only eight weeks, and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), denoting shipments of 500,000 units; and as it fell from the charts,
received platinum certification, denoting shipments of 1 million in the US. As of April 2013, Nielsen SoundScan estimates sales of the Glitter album at
652,000 copies in the United States
Glitter was kind of smash on these days
