Also, if Whitney's The Bodyguard is included with her sales, she should be somewhere on the list. But I don't feel like looking for receipts.

Also, I refuse to believe that Alanis Morissette hasn't crossed 20 million as well.

Mary J. Blige and R. Kelly surely belong in the top 50 as well.

[Stoner]

but wheres bey?

[boodytay]

Bey is ineligible. Plus I edited the OP with the updated Janet receipts. She's at #48 now.

[KillingYourCareer]

Britney Spears should be at 33M by now. Queen of everything

[cronek33]

Taylor owns all, almost 22 million in just 7 years, give her 7 more years and she will be top 10 and doing so in an era where album sales are hard to come by. unlike the 90's and early 2000's. now take ever one on this list and do single sales. and then tell me who number 1.

[Stitches.]

7) Eminem 42,307,000
16) Britney Spears 32,432,000


King and Queen!

There's no point in threading old sales from 2011, and wrong info. X should now be on the list as well -

That's without Lotus, and updated sales.

Yes, Legend X

There have been artists who have pulled over 22 million in less time than that. Album sales have always been hard to come by, the only difference is the 90s saw the boom of "idols," who are generally good at selling albums. Taylor is just another idol.

I don't expect him to move up 500k albums, tbh.
