Quote:
In the short term, Rebel Heart will lengthen Madonna's lead over her rivals as this century biggest selling female artist. Prior to the release of Rebel Heart, her 792 week 21st century total sale of 7,653,480 (including 86,788 Evita sales) was enough for her to top the list ahead of Pink (7,377,310), Rihanna (7,084,988) and Adele (6,979,902).
As of 7 March 2015, Madonna is the century's 12th biggest seller, behind Robbie Williams (15,464,202), Coldplay (11,955,164), Westlife (11,871,186), Take That (11,388,271), Michael Buble (10,084,185), Eminem (9,844,245), Rod Stewart (9,353,186), Michael Jackson (9,243,018), The Beatles (8,834,981) and Oasis (7,894,460). Totals include interview albums. It would arguably be as valid to add some Take That sales to Williams' tally, to credit Eminem's D12 duties, to add more than a million to The Beatles tally to arrive at a higher figure for Paul McCartney, and so on. I have not done this, although if an album has a joint credit full sales have been added..

Let's be honest Pink deserves so much recognition for this
Rih Shame she will very unlikely take the top female spot given Adele's placing.
