On top of that, Womanizer's sales have been at 3.5 million for years now it seems. Her recurrent sales aren't great at all.

Except Billboard credited her for them on multiple occasions. 
And Womanizer as of December 2012:

US digital sales: Womanizer 3,335,418 & Circus 3,005,364 by @BritneySpears.

Billboard confirmed that they are counted for Britney. They probably think her overall sales are good enough without them. She doesn't need them to look successful

Because record companies were selling these records so cheaply to clubs, the riaa wouldn't include these shipments when awarding Gold and Platinum albums. However in 1994 they changed the rules and allowed shipments to record clubs to be included.
|
RIAA eventually changed the rules to include them but Soundscan didn't think these 'sales' were worthy of being counted

The club sales were accurate numbers  They just didn't want to pay Nielsen Soundscan.

Not you trying to drag Britney for not needing features added in to make her numbers look impressive

People saying Blackout didn't hit 1 Million copies in the US 
Anywho, they should add the club sales before. That's like 1.5M more for BOMT and 1M more for Oops which brings her to third.

Stop being so bitter. You can count S&S's sales to Christina's total. We donate to the less fortunate. #BritneyCares

Ikr
Billboard probably didn't include them coz she has enough lead smashes to stand on her own. But drag I guess
