US only

$315 M = tours
let's tentatively say $100 M = albums

== $ 415 M

that answers your question as to why Madonna is missing the list....

BTW, Celine is no surprise. 5 years in Vegas people...

ya'll dont realize they counted britney since 99 so i dont know why some are like "where's bee @?" when we all know beyonce came out around 2003

had she released the music alongside others she would have def been up on that list..

The sales of Britney of 99 aren't included in this list. This is only of the decade 2000-2009.

Show them how it's done Celine.

Britney

decade end list usually start on the 9 and end on the 9 of that year example 1999-2009

Where is queen Madonna?

Congrats to Celine, The Rolling Stones and Britney! Especially Britney since she's the youngest one by a lot compared to the others!

this is a list for 2000-2009 not for 1990-1999.

umm. No. That would mean it was 11 years and a decade is 10 years.

2000- Year One.
2001- Year Two.
2002- Year Three.
2003- Year Four.
2004- Year Five
2005- Year Six
2006- Year Seven
2007- Year Eight
2008- Year Nine
2009- Year Ten

Celine slaying...a Canadian is the ultimate artist in the United States. Too much

I notice you talk about Canada a lot

People shouldn't be surprised that Britney is there. She's a legend and that's a fact.

^ Pretty much.

An overrated & now talentless legend at that. But I'm feeling charitable today, I'll give you legend.

Celine, keep representing for the Canadians!!!

talent: a special natural ability or aptitude

Britney can still dance. [Mannequin]
Britney can write songs. [Someday]
Britney can sing. Not the best vocalist but she can sing better than alot of people. [You Oughta Know]

and I'm sure Britney has other talents. Everybody in this world has talent. Talent could mean anything. It could mean holding your breath underwater for five minutes. It could mean running a mile in three minutes. It could mean juggling, skating, etc, etc. Nobody in this world is talentless. If Britney is untalented, Beyonce must be untalented as well. Overrated? Were talking about Britney Spears NOT Lady Gaga.

tell 'em sis

snatch those wigs

Britney & Celine
