I can't believe Alexz still hasn't posted in this thread. He probably died of happiness.

I believe I predicted around 100k back in April.
I feel so psychic! I was right about "Alejandro" breaking her number one streak on pop, although it still being a hit, and I was right about Bionic's opening week sales!

I'm not sure why people make up excuses left and right for the seeming failure of the album when it really can be attributed to one thing: poor album content. None of the songs are smash-worthy. At best, they're just fun filler songs. The ballads are the only ones with potential to be lukewarm hits. again, I really think the low sales are simply because the album just isn't as good as her other ones.

my opinion on this whole thing.
it all started with that gaga comment. but that was just an excuse to hate on xtina. it was not a reason, it was an excuse. you follow me? the public loves to put down a celeb (it has happened many times in the past).
people were ready to hate on xtina. she just gave them the opportunity (by putting out a mediocre product) and a reason (the gaga comment, which was blown out of proportion, even though i think xtina is a nasty person, but many in Hollywood are).
i doubt anything can save this era, but the bigger the flop, the bigger the resurrection. (Britney, mariah....people feel good about themselves when they make them big stars again.).
the public wants her down right now....
it has happened to bigger stars (tom cruise for jumping on a couch -lol), so xtina is in good company. at least people care...

Well said, though I think the reason people turned against her was the way she handled the negativity. She fueled the fire, took shots at a beloved artist (who speaks no hatred on any celebrity that I know of) and generally isn't being a very positive person. I understand that she must be frustrated at the hate, but fighting back like that isn't going to help. She needs to reach out to her fans, be humble and keep making music.
The album sales IMO are simply because the album just isn't good. I'm sure if she'd put out a smash album, the hate would be there, but people would still love the songs.

Never thought I'd see the day. Just kiddin'. Yes, I did. Poor Legendtina!
Flop single, flop tour, flop album, flop movie?! This is too good to be true. This narcissist bitch does deserve it! Who owns the throne? apparently not you, Xtina.

No, it's just because nobody gives a **** about Christina. Time to face the facts.

DEAD @ the haters celebrating like if they just graduated from college, truly sad.
I wonder if she is gonna be able to get a hit this era. Bionic, just like Rated R, has almost no commercial appeal. She took a big risk with this record, and I wonder if she was being honest when she said she don't care about success this era.

You didn't think Paparazzi would do well when it was released, you sure got that wrong

Of course she cares about success, they all do. It's easy for her to turn around and say that she doesn't care about success because she hasn't been having much recently, but the only reason she has said that is to save face. If she didn't care about success then she wouldn't be promoting as much as she has. The record may not be commercial, but they have been very commercial in their approach to promoting it. The biggest consequence from this era's "failure" for Christina is that she may not get the same opportunities next time, she's not going to be given performance slots if she has the label "flop" attached to her. She's in desperate need of a hit single.

LOL @ Bionic not being commercial.
Britney's DEBUT album sold more than this.

Some of them are really sad. If Britney/Ke$ha/Lady GaGa/Beyonce sold 0.5, 4, 10, 20 millions I couldn't care less
