That makes sense.

It really does, but I doubt either Billboard or HDD are predicting their numbers without considering all that stuff - Thanksgiving, Cyber Monday, promo etc - and even so, I don't think Cyber Monday is enough to stop the huge declines that comes after the inflated Thanksgiving week sales.

That said, I don't think One Direction will fall less than 75%, but that's as far as I will go, so I guess we will only have a clear view of where Britney Jean will debut after we've seen One Direction's official 1st week numbers.

Could they surprise us!??? Lol part of my delusional self still hopes there's something coming

A Stan can only dream

I don't think they care how well the album does because they will get a profit no matter what from Vegas.

They are front loaded with their singles, mainly. Their album sales remain consistent, hence selling 1.9m and 1.8m with their debut & sophomore, respectively. TMH dropped just 67% in its second week, from 540k to 176k. Which yes the average decline is around 70%, but even a little bit lower than that is impressive.

The initial estimates are 500k, but that's being foolish. Syco/Columbia will discount it Thanksgiving and Black Friday/weekend, and that will send sales even higher -- my personal idea is in the 600-625k range. Which at that point they'd need to do 80% for Britney Jean to be safe. Even if they do 500k, something like 70-75% is still worrysome for a #1 entry.

Then you have Cyber Monday and of course the now confirmed SNL appearance, with a song like "Story of My Life" having the chance to resonate consumers versus their previous material's sound. All falling in line during our release week.

And then there's not even being sure she'll make the prediction mark.

So yeah, I'm not really concerned about the sales or position debut because the album sounds excellent. But if it will be discussion, I'll hop on in. And I think anyone concerned about the numbers or #1 debut should consider all of this.

Unless she starts announcing appearances, I expect them to win. Watch her show up to the AMAs to stand next to Miley

I could see her taking the #1 even with just a GMA appearance, though a good Jimmy Kimmel performance could help her, too.

This actually makes a lot of sense.

Oh well. I'll take a #2 peak as long as the first week sales meet the predictions.

Americans are outraged at Britney Spears

Heel Amerika is woedend op Britney Spears. Tijdens de opnames van haar nieuwe clip, waarin de popzangeres er lustig op los schiet, kwam ze opdagen met een pull van Virginia Tech. Nu is dat net de universiteit waar in 2007 32 leerlingen doodgeschoten werden.

In de videoclip van haar nieuwe single Perfume ziet Britney Spears er best stoer uit. De knappe blonde zangeres schiet met een pistool om zich heen, terwijl ze een leren jekker draagt. Tot daar is er natuurlijk niets erg.

Het was pas toen foto’s van tijdens de opnames opdoken dat de 31-jarige Spears heel Amerika over zich heen kreeg. Net voor de opnames had ze immers een pull aan van Virginia Tech, de hogeschool waar een schutter in 2007 32 leerlingen en leraars doodde en 17 mensen verwondde. Het is nog steeds de dodelijkste schietpartij door één dader in de geschiedenis van de VS. Volgens Splash news is de trui van haar vriend, maar dat doet er voor de Amerikanen niet toe.

Wat alles nog erger maakt, is dat het niet de eerste keer is dat Spears voor controverse zorgt met een wapen. In 2011 ging ze de videoclip voor Criminal opnemen in het Britse Hackey en zwaaide er met haar pistool in een buurt die net daarvoor nog geteisterd werd door rellen.

that hoodie is not even part of the video.


I blame David.

No the **** you won't. Get your iTunes card ready, gal

I never thought it'd come to a point where we'd be praying for one GMA performance on the album release date.

At first I was really skeptical about the album, but now I'm really growing to like all the snippets.

the album is great but they should have added the songs on the deluxe edition to the standard cause there r the most personal and great songs

[Shameless]

I know a person who sells the album. He said it should leak today. But he did not guarantee it. As he would not leak it himself. You guys need to wait.

I'm here for a leak.

[Ozzy8923]

I NEED a leak today.

My week has been a MESS. Britney come save it for me.

You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone

I’ve been telling you this time
That you are meant to be mine
I’ve been loving you all these days
But now that I’m gone, I get your praise

This love was acidic
Eating me away
But I’ll save someone like you
For another day

You’ll never, ever know what you have
Until it’s already moved along
You’ve been so blind all of this time
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone

I try all the time to turn to a new page
But everybody locks me in a cage
With you, my heart had been misplaced
And now I can never escape your face

This love was acidic
Eating me away
But I’ll save someone like you
For another day

You’ll never, ever know what you have
Until it’s already moved along
You’ve been so blind all of this time
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone

Why did I never get your love?
Why did you ignore me all along?
Was it something that I said?
Did I ever do something wrong?
You told me you felt differently
And that I’d understand some day
But now that we’ve parted ways
You’re here begging me to stay

You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone
You’ll never, ever know what you have
Until it’s already moved along
You’ve been so blind all of this time
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone
You’ll never know what you have till it’s gone

I try everynight to turn the page
But daylight can't confide me to a cage
In my mind the life we had replace
Now eveywhere I turn I see your face

this is interesting

Xtina fans are so pathetic I feel bad for them.
