Speaking of Miley, didn't Madonna desperately try to leech Miley's power by appearing in Miley's Unplugged (despite Miley wanting Dolly Parton and not Madonna) to try to appeal to the current generation?
Yes, she did.
But let's not overrate Miley's power. Her MTV specials cumulatively drew less viewers than Britney's For The Record MTV special (nearly 1 million viewers less which is still more than the amount of people that watched Chelsea Lately but you get the point) + Adore You kinda made DWUW look like Poker Face in comparison. Oh, and no IFPI entries.
also mariah > madonna. theyre both embarrassing nowadays but mimi she has the advantage bc she used to be amazing and madge has always been a little embarrassing
"Hung Up" was a worldwide commercial success, peaking at number one in charts of 41 countries and earning a place in the 2007 Guinness Book of World Records, as the song topping the charts in most countries
