No these receipts need to be given. She barely pushed 70-80 million albums with Baby One More Time, Oops and Britney. When did BlackOut, Circus, FF and Britney Jean help give her another 120 million album sales.

If Britney didn't release an album almost every damn year after her debut she wouldn't have all these album sales. Her label just took advantage of the bubblegum boom, which by her Britney album was already fading.

Britney and In the Zone had radio bans and still slayed in sales. "Me Against the Music" got absolutely no radio play and stayed at #1 on the sales chart for 10 weeks ![rip](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/ATRLSmilies/rip_zpsec10ede9.gif) Talk about falling off
Releasing an album every year is supposed to be bad for album sales. Rihanna does it and barely scans past platinum. Why would it help Britney and get her to scan: 14x platinum-Diamond-5x platinum-3x platinum, respectively? Shouldn't she have barely hit platinum with her yearly releases like most artists do?

And it didn't?
Britney got her biggest radio hits in 2011, she had one of the biggest tours of 2009, etc etc - just because her album sales have declined (like almost everyone from the 90s at this point, considering the shift to the digital age, which mind you, Britney also held several digital records with Gimme More, Womanizer and Hold It Against Me) does not negate longevity.

CLASSICS
Britney's only real classics is BOMT the rest are badly aged teen bops or forgotten pop tracks.

I just heard those songs on Youtube and i have LITERALLY never heard them ever in my life. The only one i remember is All For You because someone said on Britney´s fansite that it was similar to Anticipating.
The other ONLY song i know from Janet (and i like it) is Rhythm Nation, and i first heard it on the commercial for the tribute that Britney received at the VMAs.
I dont know, maybe my country is the only place where all her songs are unknown? ![confused](http://www.atrl.net/forums/images/smilies/images/smilies/confused.gif)

Your fave's most remembered performance is for a nip slip. Who are you trying to shade for gimmicks? ![ahh](images/smilies/images/smilies/ahh.gif) At least people can tell you which songs Britney performed at the 2000, 2001, 2003 and 2007 VMAs. Can anyone tell you what was performed at Janet's SuperBowl performance?
Britney's touring better than Janet with literally 0 effort. She's done 5 televised performances in the past 10 years in the U.S. and still hasn't had to find a billionaire to fund her. How is she being checked for less than Janet, especially when her catalogue sales are considerably higher?

So if i went and asked anyone on the street which songs Britney performed at those shows they would tell me? Real life is not ATRL, Britney is not that regarded as you fans love to claim she is.
All of Janet's album sales are over her dated certifications, the same cannot be said for Britney. unless she recently got all her certifications updated

Really, over here no one knows any Janet songs or videos, or performances or anything other than being MJ's sister really.
Even Rihanna will be more remembered than Janet.

The god damn ignorance
Look up Rhythm Nation and get back to me. Inspired half the pop girls music videos.

Janet's legacy wasn't that big anyway. One mistake ruined her, she's tried to come back and nobody cared. Britney shaved her head and came back bigger than ever.

There's no ignorance there. If Janet is not popular in his area he doesn't have to know her.

If Janet's legacy isn't big then Britney's is not existent
What are her contributions to music apart from her petty influence in the pop-teen wave? Me and a few others have listed Janet's contributions and all you Brit stans have given us is Sales and other ****, or is there a message hidden in that?

YOU are delusional and need to go to sleep.
The climate of entertainment when Janet had the nipslip vs the paparazzi media culture that Hollywood has become with JLo, Britney, Paris, Nicole, Lindsay, etc are totally different.
America was very much conservative and in a different place when Janet's incident happened and she was CRUCIFIED and blacklisted. There are also racial factors and other things I won't get into.
That being said, NOTHING has happened to Janet's legacy except underaged twinks not knowing who she is because she doesn't have beats produced by Max Martin.

I love when prople pull the "ATRL is not real-life ********." I've been here less than a year. Why do you think I would base all of my experiences with performances over a decade old on some forum I recently joined? Use some logic, please ![rip](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/ATRLSmilies/rip_zpsec10ede9.gif) People can pinpoint Oops from the nude bodysuit, I'm A Slave 4 U from the snake, Like a Virgin from the kiss and Gimme More from the gut. They were all ridiculously popular and if you're really old enough to remember/stan someone like Janet, then you know these performances that came after Janet's relevance ended.
Go to Les Recettes. Even Janet's inflated WW receipts are lower than Britney's WW receipts. There's no contest there; Britney outsold her.

So basically If I wanna listen to a Janet song I have
tuned into a old school station ![no party](images/smilies/images/smilies/noparty.gif)
yet Mariah, Britney, Madonna, MJ songs
get play daily on the relevant top 40 stations.
I can assure you besides BOMT songs from Britney 1st 2 albums get very little
airplay. Random singles from In The Zone to current era get played daily

BRITNEY IS A NEWER ARTIST. Janet was doing that and more at the same age as Britney. Your acting like Janet debuted in 1999 with Britney. By 1999 Janet was regarded as a Pop Icon.
And what performance other than her walking with a snake and kissing Madonna is so remembered by the general public? Let's not even get into Gimme More live at the VMA's.
Superbowl outshines any performance Britney ever did. Even outside of nipslip that performance slayed anything Britney has ever stiffly 8 counted. Britney could never serve that, so have a seat.

No one said that is the only place, it is one of the places. Janet gets played on all stations, she even has a number 1 rock hit with Black Cat, Janet's been played everywhere. Have a seat. Your own fave Britney even knows her place compared to Janet. Give it a rest.

Man, don't mess with the Janet stans ![JonnyϟLightning](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/ATRL_Smilies_All/atrlers/jonny_zpsc73391c5.png) You guys go IN!
I don't even know where to start. 14 years into Britneys career in 2014, her latest singles can't even reach Top 10. 14 years into Janet's career, she had one of her biggest albums and tours of all time. You guys can't compare them directly right now. Britney is a young icon. Janet is a legend.
Yes, Britney and Janet will both have their own legacies, but I'm leaning towards Janet since she's shown her artistic integrity with stellar vocals, amazing choreography, etc. Also leaning towards her even more after seeing some of these messy responses from the Britney stans.
Do you guys not forget the biggest hit of 2001, All For You ![deadbanana2](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/ATRL_Smilies_All/bananas/deadbanana_zps933fcf47.gif)

So Janets sales are inflated and not Britney's 100 million albums claims? Haha the double standard. And I have already said that Britney has outsold Janet so what the **** are you going on about? And can you please answer the question I just asked Alexz.
