I'm so curious about her next album, I hope it sells good, but apparently she's never been a good seller.
According to her own official facebook page she has sold 25million albums. 
".....One of the most accomplished performers of the last decade, she has sold more than 25 million albums worldwide....." 
I think her fans usually inflate her sales a lot

Yes is old, but not too old, Xtina's facebook page is not very old ... and sorry but inflate from 25M to 46M is just being delusional, I think 30M is more credible.

The 25M number is over 7 years old. RCA is wack when it comes to updating Christina's numbers.
It's not delusions, it's FACT.
How is your 30M number credible when you just plucked it out thin air?

The 25M number is over 4 years old when RCA (UK) made an article about her and stated that number.
But even if the 25M info is over 7 years old, then B2B + KGB:ADOH + BIONIC + BOST need to have sold 21M copies combined just to match those 46M copies that the whole Xtina's fans are talking about.
and that's crearly and 100% impossible.

(Debut) 17 + (Mi Reflejo) 5 + (My Kind Of Christmas) 3 + (Stripped) 13 + (Back To Basics) 5 + (KGB: ADOH / BI-ON-IC / Burlesque) 3 = 46 million (which was confirmed by RCA in late 2010 so it's quite fitting)

That was exactly the thing I was talking about, Xtina's fans usually inflate her sales A LOT!!.
1) Her debut album: her fans always say it sold like 17million, That is delusional and impossible, outside USA/Canada that album wasn't a big success, it was a flop in Asia, it underperfomed in latinamerica, and only got 1 platinum IFPI certification for 1million sold across Europe. So its crearly impossible it could've sold 17M, 13M copies si more accurate, She's never released an album over 15M copies
2) Her Spanish album: Also inflated sales, Mi reflejo was notorious for selling a lot in USA (for obvious reasons) For latin standards, but the reality is outside US it wasn't big, in latin america it got a couple of certifications Other latin divas didn't have any problem to outsold her, I think more than 2M copies would be to much for "Mi Reflejo"
3) Christmas album: I have even read stupid stories like it's sold 6 million copies  . . I think 1.4M WW would be a miracle
4) Stripped: it was her most international succesfull album and her fans like to think it sold 12/13M, but that's not truth, the album has sold 4M in US + 3M in Europe, and was a total flop in Asia, it has sold no more than 9.5/10M copies, and the mediatraffic chart listed it with 10M copies sold.
5) Back to basics: her fans like to think it sold +4M copies, in reality in the mediatraffic chart it couldn't reach the 3M mark, and some of the certification it got are based on the "Double disc" rule, for example in canada it has sold only 160K but is certified 3 times platinum cuz is a double disc album, Accurate sales for B2B are around 3.5 - 3.7M copies.
afther B2B it's been really hard for her to reach the million mark with every album she realeases, its impossible she's sold 46M albums.

dinorel, the 25M number was first confirmed by RCA just before B2B came out.
The fans aren't the ones saying 46M. Her offical site press release from just last month has also confirmed it:

WORLDWIDE ACCUMULATED SALES:
Debut: 17 Million
Stripped: 12 Million
Back To Basics: 4.5 Million
Bionic: 600k (shipped 1M)
Burlesque: 750k (shipped 1M)
Keeps Getting Better: 1.1 Million
Just Be Free: 130k (US ONLY) Source
My Kind Of Christmas: 6 Million (RCA confirmed it via Twitter: link)
Mi Reflejo: 3 Million* - Billboard Magazine August 30, 2001 / Link
MINIMUM ALBUM SALES: 46 MILLION.

So this was stated in her own offical page? she sounds a bit desperate I guess.
Unfortunately, the only official/accurate source of sales are:
1) Soundscan sales (offical)
2) IFPI sales (official)
3) Certifications awards (official)
4) Mediatraffic / Musicharts ESTIMATIONS. (just accurate)

why do you only come to this thread to make useless comments about her sales ?
just wait and see what will happen with her career, and just accept her sales or disagree but don't go on and on about the same thing.

LMAO at you citing those sources yet using hardly any of them in your previous sales breakdown. Hmm, she flopped in Asia so it's impossible she sold X amount there.--Your logic screams of ACCURACY. No sources, just your gutt feeling.

Exactly. He came in here acting like it was only the FANS saying she sold 46M (citing her out-of-date Official Facebook 25M number as proof). Then he completely ignores an offical press release that came out just last month citing the 46M on her offical site. He calls that "desperate". LMAO He needs to keep it moving >>

Like most of those interviewed, Adam Levine of Maroon 5 is excited about whom he may meet at the awards.
"It happens all so randomly, and everyone under the sun will be there," Levine says. If he had the chance to meet anyone, "Paul McCartney would blow my mind," he says.
Maroon 5 will sing "Moves Like Jagger" with Christina Aguilera.
"It is hard singing on a stage with her because she is so good," Levine says. "I will have to flail my arms around and run around like a maniac."

Ok guys, you made me feel bad. My intention wasn't getting pissed everyone.
I was just reading the pages and I read something funny about her sales. So I wanted to express an opinion about that which turned out in a unpleasant conversation.
This opinion I have is not just about xtina, is the same for others artists, If I go to a Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Britney, Beyonce, etc Thread ... They also inflate their sales. IMO that's not being realistic.
I apologize if I bothered some fans with my comments. I wish to xtina the best for her next album.
