I thought Mariah would be higher. Well, some of her albums released in this last decade weren't much successful (Glitter, Charmbracelet). Glad to see her and Madonna there.

Some of those numbers look a tad inflated.

I think the #'s are a little inflated, but if they werent it would probably be the same exact list, just smaller #'s.

Britney's sold over 83 million records in her career so the number does sound somewhat believable.
YAY for Alicia making the list

Why WHY?
In the US Britney has sold 34 million records. And the RIAA has her certified by 31x Platinum. The list is wrong.

If this list is correct, what I doubt, it would be great, except for Norah Jones (That IDK really well) all the others artists deserve what they sold. Actually Norah Jones probably deserves it but I don't know her so well.
