lol who guessed under 100k? don't make me laugh.

250k i think

[tell_me_a_lie]

If she gets lucky she will debut at number 2 but looking at the artists who will release an album i see a #5-6 opening. She will sell about 100k-130k IMO in US. Kate Bush, Nickelback and Daughtry are huge competition. Adele will be locked to top 4 that time so I see RIhanna will be number 5 but who knows. In Uk, she might debut at # 2 selling 60-70k. Kate Bush will definitely debut number one as she was number one for two weeks in preorders 4 weeks ago.. so there.

[MP2K]

750k U.S.

Ya'll we forgot Jackie might release her album that week.

Actually, I dont think Mary poses a threat. Her last album sold 300k CHRISTMAS week, with at least a few charting singles. This album has COMPLETE flops, and her sales have gone lower with her past three albums, so I'm thinking 250k, and Rihanna could do better than that.

MJB 250-300K
Nickelback 225-275k
Rihanna or Daughtry 175-215k

She won't sell over 200k. Not hating, just saying.

US iTunes
2. We Found Love

Hot 100
#6 We Found Love

Loud opened with 206K on a week that wasn't Black Friday. This year it is Black Friday.

She may or may not debut with 200K, but to say the album definitely won't is a lie.

200K seems to be the safest bet, but if she does a lot of promo she'll be able to rake in more.

[Cap10Planet]

Michael Buble could be the Josh Groban of the year, and it's not like he's a modest album seller.

Ch at this little kid!

She better wurq.

[GreasyBruce]

US - 225k

Her profile is bigger than it was a year ago and "We Found Love" will have insane A.I. by the time the album is released. She may get her first #1 album but the main competition in that department is Nickelback (ugh).

UK - 200k

She is HUGE in the UK, it will be close between her and One Direction who have ******* crazy fans.

[fromargentina]

210/240 She won't reach #1 but it will outsell Loud for sure

In the UK... I don't know their numbers, but she will do better than in the US (not more, better)

[MsCherry]

US: around 200k
UK: 140k +
