 By the way, it should be best selling female singles & albums artists of all time, not most successful, since digital single sales trump physical singles sales, and albums sold more back then, so it's hard to compare success.

Anyways where's Legend X? MLJ alone sold over 15 million records.

 Legend X is not eligible because she hasn't sold enough albums or records hun.

 I think 120m is accurate whilst shes at 85m stateside. 
Once we get new stateside numbers and international stuff you can uodate

Till The World Ends didn't even sell 4M WW. Sorry but these numbers are way off.

 Scream & Shout
 
U.S. - 3,640,000 (direct from Nielsen Soundscan)
 U.K. - 860,000 
Canada - 615,000 (direct from Nielsen Soundscan)
 
Certifications only: 
Australia - 6x Platinum -  420,000 
Germany - 2x Platinum - 600,000
 
In what world could she possibly have sold only 6.5M copies from "Scream & Shout" when she's at 6,135,000 just from these numbers (and these numbers exclude mobile sales in the U.S. and Canada and her sales that came after the certifications in Germany and Australia)?

 These seem a little suspicious to me considering she was never a global force before 1989 
 
Best selling singles: 
1)Shake It Off 9M 
2)Love Story 9M 
3)I Knew You Were Trouble 8M 
4)Blank Space 7.5M 
5)You Belong With Me 7.5M
 
How did YBWM sell 3 million outside the US though?
 
#3 Canada 
#5 Australia  
#31 UK 
N/A France 
N/A Germany
 
It's not possible.

 Shes more global than you realise for example loce story sold over 10m worldwide 
6.5m in 2009 when it only sold 2.8m stateside that year 
And its sild over 3m in the us alone. 
Check receipts thread for more info.
