I am not so sure.. but i doubt that "Whitney's" sales total is comprised of soundscan data..
if we go by that then we have to include Mariah's debut as well.. which arguably has sold over 9m copies in the US as well.
and please let's not pretend that Music Box and Daydream aren't at over 8m, with only BMG music club added.
and let's also not forget that Music Box sold 1,4m copies in Germany and therefore sold more there than in France where it actually did get a diamond cert (1,2m).
