I think around 175,000 - 250,000 first week in the US. My overall prediction is sales similar to Mariah's "Memiors", GOLD in the US and about 1,3m worldwide for Bionic.

I'm predicting like 300k.
Whether her album's first single flopped or not,
Christina is a huge star and she has fans that will
back her up no matter what...just giving
credit where credit is deserved.

I'm bagging in on 200K tops. Yes, she's a huge star but she lost luster on multiple accounts. NMT barely hovered at the top 10 and the video failed to propel it back, despite containing strong visuals. Same story with Oprah. This estimate is more reasonable but I'll be glad if she'll be able gather more than predicted.

I also see Christina fans in Britney threads. What's wrong with that?

90-150k

200-299k

BUMP....

My 150-200K still stands although....she's not #1 on iTunes nor Amazon or Amazon MP3.

This era is one mess.

again......130 k.. i hope ..

I was hoping for 200K+, but the predictions now are 100-120K. Hopefully she open closer to 150.
