Taylor is just a front loaded seller, don't her albums end up selling like 2-3 million? I'm guessing it's because the majority of her fans are like 10, anyway, Taylor can use Max Martin and attempt to recreate the success of Queen Britney Spears but Britney was the original chanteuse and remains as Americas true sweetheart, I don't think it's very likely that she will have long lasting success or an impact matching that of Britney but if it's in your Wildest Dreams it may come true.

All of Taylor's albums are 4x platinum in the US alone and Red is almost 5x which will make them all 5x platinum

Fearless and Red are also approaching 10M WW

Plus Taylor's been around from 2006 and hasn't fallen off at all and always increased. Britney was active from 1999-2003 and then in 2011. That's 5 years total. Taylor has already outlasted Britney.

Sis I love Britney and respect her but stop this scalping. Do you even realize that Taylor's fifth album outsold Britney's fifth album total sales in just a WEEK?

And Fearless is at 6.8M, Taylor Swift at 5.4M, Speak Now at 4.4M and RED at 4M. So no, she ain't selling just 2-3M, an Queen Britney aint even touching these days.

Only artist with three 1m+ openings

Taylor has YET to peak.

[Rogue]

Only on ATRL can someone sell over 1 million the first week and still pick apart it like it's nothing special.

Because we deserved to destroy Britney and leave her with no records left as a showing of the true biggest star in America of all time

Not when Britney made bigger impact. Glad she keeps. But still congrats to Taylor, huge slayage.

YOU need to stop. Taylor is always said to have peaked and then outdoes what people like you say.

And no, I didn't make that picture nor do I know what one it is.

People like me?

You're going into super hyper active stan mode right now and grouping a bunch of people who doubted Taylor (a majority of them not even being Britney fans, but fans of other artists trying to stir the pot) and are attacking Britney and the fans for absolutely no reason.

I had never once doubted Taylors sales and have spent the last few days giving her props for her achievements. Why are you acting so unselfconscious about the entire situation?

Calm the hell down and celebrate Taylors other record she gained today instead of trying to put down Britney and her legacy and take in your favs legacy instead.

[Vertigo Stick]

Congrats

[RainDreamer]

Mess

for the new record though .

And why didn't they give us a sales breakdown this time?

[Trent W]

SEETHEEEEEEEEEEEEE EVERYONE WHO SHADED BRITNEY

SETHEEEEEEEEEEE

Congrats to Britney and Taylor, only them and ADELE are this huge in the US, NO ONE ELSE IS ONE THEIR LEVEL IN THIS COUNTRY!

TAYLOR SELLING 1.2 MILLION IS HUGE!!!

[mikeyace16]

Honestly, I'm glad the difference was bigger than it was.

Still, unbelievable. Congrats, Queen

You sound so ****ing stupid with your non-reasearching ass. Bye.

shut the **** up Jacob.

let's not act like queen britney didn't open with 107k (1/12 of 1989's) with her last album

bitch be GONE.

[DivaDown]

I am really DEAD right now! I am SO GLAD Britney holds onto her record! It will last for 15 more years (or the next Adele album ).

I am laughing literally out loud that BILLBOARD didn't mention Britney at all, yet it was quoted by many sources prior to today that Taylor Swift "was approaching Britney's record" & that "it's a very real possibility that she'd surpass Britney". Definitely shows they're bitter Bessies at BILLBOARD.

Oh well, at least she can still try to get the Diamond certification.

Not happening

She'll be lucky to hit 4 million again.

Waiting patiently for that 80%+ drop in week #2...
