Since when is BTW considered an album of disappointing sales?

Anyway, it's either FF and 4. They both should've done better but something went wrong.

ATRL thinks BTW era was a complete flop even though it did better than their faves

Bey's 'groundbreaking' performance only got RTW to the top 30. Yet Rihanna's performance with Britney kept S&M inside the top ten?

She must have been so disappointed.

Even Britney's TTWE performance with Nicki had more of an effect.

Maybe she should have come up with her plan of announcing stuff at awards shows earlier. Then RTW might have actually scraped the Top 20.

I still don't get the hype over Beyonce's Billboard performance. It was just her shaking ha thighs and whipping hair, whilst shouting into the mic. Cute, but nowhere near 'iconic' or 'legendary'.

Actually, it doesn't. Going by ATRL Logic, since 4 had no hits whatsoever, it's a flop. Plain and simple.

Femme Fatal had 2 hits, Britney's greatest AI numbers and both singles sold more then 2 million copies (I believe). Why is Femme Fatal not over the 1 million mark here in the US? Smash hits are supposed to sell the album.

This reason would also put Talk That Talk right behind Femme Fatal.

First of all, I'm not most of ATRL and I don't follow this "ATRL logic", I have my own tyvm.

Femme Fatale's album sales weren't as bad as Sorry For Party Rocking, which had one of the biggest songs of 2011 for example. What I'm putting into consideration is, this is Britney's SEVENTH studio album which she barely promoted, unlike the other girls. One featured performance on a primetime award show isn't "promotion" to me, especially opposed to Beyonce's numerous UK/US specials including the Glastonbury Festival. The rest of FF's were tragic morning/midnight show performances and she didn't even promote outside the US. Despite all that, the FF numbers may be low but they are certainly not disappointing given the circumstances. Finally, having airplay is NOT promotion to the album. For the song, yes, that's why they end up being hits.

Anything else?

OP should have included Love? as well considering the worldwide hit " On The Floor" getting positive reviews.

So you thought that J.Lo was actually going to get successful album sales?

ATRL thinks BTW era was a complete flop because it actually was a complete flop.

The answer is simple: her delusional stans claim that.
No one except her stanbase even knows Beyonce had a Billboard performance

Well she couldn't exactly announced her pregnancy back then since the bump hadn't arrived.

A flop? It's true some single choices were a mess, but I can't say the whole era was a flop. It was one of her best.

Is the BB performance where she had a million Beyonces on a screen behind her or the baby bump unveiling?

You try mmoving in sycn with the counts ont he screen while singing on key.

How many of your favs could do it .

1. Femme Fatale (considering it's Britney and she had some great singles released before the album)
2. Talk That Talk (considering how massive WFL was)
3. 4 (Still managed to sell well despite the lack of hit singles on it)
4. Born This Way (considering how big the hype was and how people got their hopes up for the album of de decade but I think this is the last disappointing one because it still managed to sell over 6m worldwide so that's not a miss at all)

You act as if dancing in front of a graphic screen is so difficult. Just keep count of the words, and beats and there ya go. And singing in key? Shouting is not a key.

Billboard disagrees:
