Add 3.5M for S&S, 950K for WB, ~500K for Deadfume and Ooh La La = 33,615,000. I'd say she's around 36M or higher since FF's singles were still selling a lot at the time and Toxic alone has sold over 400K since then. Not to mention she has other singles that are still selling really well. I'll try to find her sales in 2012 to do a full comparison. I hate Billboard.

I'd rather not have a top ten update until she does a few more singles. gLee finally ended and she should be able to pass them with four or five more singles.

That was Jan. 2012, assuming 21M sold from her top ten singles in Jan 2012 (3.3M for Womanizer, 3M for Circus, 2.8M for TTWE, 2.2M for 3, 2M for Toxic, 1.8M for POM, 1.7M for GM, 1.7M for IWG, 1.6M for HIAM and 1.3M for Amy -- basically shaved off 100K or so from each, give or take = 21.4M) that leaves about 7.665M from other tracks. 7.665M/28 other singles counted in the 2012 figure (remove S&S/WB/Perfume/OLL since they're after 2012) = 273,750 avg per track.
Assuming that each song is now at ~275K avg is 275K x 28 = 7.7M.
SO
22.37 from top ten best selling singles as of March 2015 + 7.7M from 28 other singles released prior to 2012 + post-2012 singles (3.5M for S&S, 250K for OLL, 1M for WB and 250K for Perfume = 5M) = 38.57M.
So I'll just stick with 35M. But I'd be more impressed if it was actually closer to 40M.

If only I put so much effort into my actual math class instead of calculating Britney's ****ing single sales.

Criminal: 220,000 (+180,000)

= 2,300,000 but we're missing many singles including BOMT, OIDIA, and Slave (all which have strong catalog sales) as well as non-singles, so let's say 3,000,000.
28.7M + 3.6M for S&S and it's remix, 950K for WB, ~500K for Deadfume and Ooh La La + 3M for catalog sales = 36.75M
I think 36.5-37M is good estimation tbh.

"Don't Let Me Be the Last Single On Her 3rd Best Album" pt. 2.
I remember how uncomfortable I was the first time I watched it (I was 11).  I think I wanted to be turned on by the sexual imagery, but the cognitive dissonance between that naive want and the actual inside out my peeen did from lady parts caused me to turn in my stan card until 2007.

I'm just going to say it.
I really thought her lingerie line thing was going to flop.
The fact that it's still going makes me feel elated.
