PANCOSNIC, I can't believe that you actually comparing a legendary rivalry between Mariah and Madonna to a "wannabr" duet between Christina dn Britney..HAH..
BRIAN, yeah I get ya. However, she already has a top 10 in urban and rhytmic, which are equally important for Billboard. I know that SOS and So Sick both dropped spins in POP format one week and then started to rise again. But I do think that DEJA VU (song and the video) are not POP friendly. It wouldn't surprise me if she wouldn't reach the top in pop.
And I already showed you 3 sources that DIL sold over 11 million copies worldwide...
www.beyonceonline.com
www.columbiarecords.com
www.sonybmg.com
I can also copy some articles to prove it to you.
And yeah it will be hard to top DIL, but I know that the hype and the love DEJA VU is getting here in Europe is immense. Her album will definitely be BIG in Europe. I know that she is doing great in Asia, with Deja Vu debuting at number 3 and also in Australia, where Deja Vu was number 1 in radio airplay (not too long ago).
Lets wait how she will do in USA.
