it's not a flop. it's underperforming.
i hope longevity is on Britney's side this week.
she can't abandon this project. she just can't.
i guess i'll be happy with 3 million WW.
she just needs to promote!!

6th number one in the palm of our hands and if the market has weak competition and if TTWE video gives it nice number, Britney might get a second week @ number one ...

I'd love some longevity but it ain't happening. She's probably dropping somewhere around 100-120k next week and the album will disappear around 800k to slowly come close to 1 million.

The following week is crucial to know how this will perform, depending on the drop, we will already know it's flopping.

It's not even "underperforming". The problem is Britney sold the usual expected for a big name this time of the year - But we expected she would be "bigger" than that.

However, with a single that had no longevity such as 'Hold It Against Me' and no promo until the album release week. she couldn't get past that.

Anywayz, yeah, let's PRAY we don't get that 70% 2nd week drop this time.

I'd say 100-120k would actually be pretty good for the 2nd week. If things happen the same way as in the past, 'Femme Fatale' will be selling 80-90k next week.

Btw, if they stop promo like they did with 'Circus' this album will struggle to even hit 700k, you can trust me on that.

I must say that I am shocked and disappointed....Because this is such a good album.

They've already stopped the promo, or do you believe Ellen was really postponed?


Perhaps they will get Britney to extend the promo since it's flopping...

it's UNDERPERFORMING.

Adele did better. she did almost the same numbers as Chris Brown.

21 was hyped. Femme Fatale was only advertised through magazines,radio, daytime TV/Late night show promo. There wasn't much hype and Chris Brown made headlines cause you know what he did then...

[Hooligan]

Our expectations were higher, honestly, but this isn't underperforming. With 'Circus', the hype about it being her "comeback" album was the driving force behind the 500K. There really wasn't hype this time around with FF, other than it being a Britney album. HIAM wasn't even promoted until the day of FF's release. So I'm expecting this to have some longevity.
