Rihanna will sell better than Mariah, Christina, Leona and Jordin this year. Think about it. She's hot on the heels of one of the biggest albums of 2007/2008 and then the CB thing happened so the public is with her. She will have massive first week sales and it will definitely sell 3,000,000+ worldwide. I don't think the same could be said for any of the above except MAYBE Leona, but I see her becoming washed out.
Mariah is a wildcard. She could come back majorly or she could flop again.

^I agree, Rihanna is going to come back harder than any of them. I see massive first week sales like you said, and several #1 singles. She definitely has more hype than any of them considering Mariah's coming off of a floppish album, Christina just gains no interest anymore, Leona's last single flopped but I still think she'll do well with her next CD, and Jordin will do well... but none of these come close to Rihanna

DEAD. Don't try to make it look like E=MC² was a bad album, it underperformed in sales and lacked promotion & horrible single choices. Maybe I could understand you better if you spoke proper english?

^Dani was talking about sales, not quality. As for quality, I'd say that GGGB:R was just as good as E=MC2. I don't think one is clearly better than the other, they're both masterpieces.

Seriously, I think Jordin is more of a threat than Mariah or Christina at this point (And I know overall they are bigger stars, but their hype is low at this point, and both of them left off with flop singles.)

Update: Rihanna cancels UAE gig
By Kelly Crane, Staff Reporter
Published: April 29, 2009, 23:08
Since tabloid! revealed May 28 as the date for Rihanna’s first live performance since that fateful night with boyfriend Chris Brown, the exclusive news has spread across the globe.
The Washington Post, and New York Times, as well as countless celeb and music websites ran with the announcement, which was even screened on a constant loop on video feeds on screens in the back of New York cabs.
Convince Rihanna to change her mind
Great for the UAE, which was looking forward to hosting the 21-year-old Grammy Award-winner. Bad for a particularly delicate Rihanna, who has decided to call off the gig, saying “it’s just not the right time” for her.
With Brown in the thick of court appearances after being accused of assaulting the singer after a pre-Grammy bash, and with RiRi having not performed since late January, Yassin Matbouly of Vibe Event Management Agency, who were bringing the star, said it had all become too much for the pop princess to deal with.
“Rihanna’s management contacted us on Saturday and explained she was unable to come to the UAE in May, but said she is keen to still perform in the region.”
Vibe, who had already agreed to many of the terms for the concert and were busy making arrangements to host the star in either Dubai or Abu Dhabi, says Rihanna had possibly underestimated the numbers and media attention when it came to a concert in the region.
“We want to share with you that Rihanna and her management will not be accepting to hold a public concert at this time as it is not appropriate timing for her,” added Matbouly.
“Vibe has been ready and was looking forward to putting this concert together for the crowd of the Middle East. We have sourced venues in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi and started looking into complying with her request to put the show on. This is very sad for us at this time knowing the concert will not happen, but we will not give up and we will continue to put our offer to Rihanna’s management for a future date.”
Vibe is hoping the concert can take place after the summer.

If that was a serious question, than we're talking about Jordin Sparks, and all three of her singles released off of her last album went top 5 on pop radio.

lol I never said anything negative about Rihanna? Everyone was saying she waits till no one big is out to release her albums. And I just said well if she really does that she will have to wait another 2 years because those people I listed are releasing their new albums this year. Misunderstanding TIMS 10 haha
