Ah, but here's the thing, your faves last album sold 3.7 M copies and it was released in 2006 and had more promo. Circus sold 3.3M copies and was released in 2008 with minimal promo. Also, in the USA both album sold 1.6M copies, the difference is that one album was released in 2006 and was heavily promoted and the other in late 08 with only a promotion on ONE tv show.

Now, let's do a rough estimation, the album sales decline between 2006-2008 should be around 25%.

Here's some maths for you:

Had Back to Basics been released at the same time as Circus, what would it have sold?
You want answeres? Well, here's a very interesting post I found over on Livedaily:

Also:


Circus: 1st week sales 505k
Total sales US: 1.6 million
Total sales WW: 3.3 million
Released in: Dec. 2008
Singles performance of 1st 3 singles:
Womanizer: #1 (2.7 million sold in US)
Circus: #3 (2.3 million sold in US)
IUSA: #20 (980k sold in US)
Tour #'s: estimated to gross $100 million +



Back to Basics: 1st week sales 340k
Total sales in US: 1.6 million
Total sales WW: 3.7 million
Released in: Aug. 2006
Singles performance:
ANOM #6 (1.3 million copies sold in the US)
Hurt #19 (500k sold in the US )
Candyman #25 (600k sold in the US)

Stay threatened and mad Christina fans. Britney achieved more with her last record than Christina, and she wasn't even trying. So bewp.

Wow seriously? **** off. You need a life if you're calculating sales for Christina if she released in 2008.

Those calculations take seconds to do dear. It's not that hard, nor is it time consuming.

It really shows how much you care about the whole Britney vs. Christina thing. Why can't you stans just leave Christina out of this and just talk about what producers you want for this project like ya'll always do.

Hmmmmmmm, well it was actually the Christina stan who brought up her fave. After that I just simply shut him/her down with some simple statistics. Done. I like to talk about Britney's upcoming work, but if I see a Christina stan trolling this post then it's on. Simple as that.

Womanizer: 2.8 Million
Circus: 2.5 Million

I need to receipts cause my fave has been outselling Britney since 2002.

The only thing Britney has over Christina is digital sales. They both are successful tour artists, so she's not owning my fave in any kind of way, so bewp.

Christina Aguilera: 16 Million
...Baby One More Time: 25 Million

Stripped: 11.3 Million
Britney: 11.8 Million

Back To Basics: 3.7 Million
Circus: 3.4 Million

They already explained the difference between Circus and Back To Basics.

Keeps Gettin' Better: 800k
The Singles Collection: 300k +

The Singles Collection only had ONE new song that so far has recieved 1.6 million downloads in just the US. It was her third compilation album and it's only behind by 500k. It had NO PROMOTION at all. Christina's album was her FIRST compilation album, it had two new songs and two re-made songs and had heavy promotion with the start at the VMA's.


I'm sorry but How has Christina been outselling Britney since 2002?

[Rhythm]

All these numbers.

What makes any of you think that any of those are accurate?

they've been confirmed by their labels and Billboard.

[foxaylove]

As reports of Madonna's collaborators surfaced, DJ A-Trak was somehow dragged into the mix, even though he is not involved in the production of Madge's new album.

He said:

"Those Madonna rumors started from a joke my boy DJ Mehdi made in an interview. Then it spread to Madonna fan-sites. Then the Daily Star fabricated a quote from me. Next thing you know it was on NME and MTV. I'm not opposed to the idea, but it's all fiction for now. By the way, DJ Mehdi is producing the next Britney record."

Too bad, but there's worse rumors to be part of!

Interesting development if true.

LMAO they're not.

...Baby One More Time is at like 24 million and Britney is around 10.5 million. Back To Basics has indeed sold 4 million worldwide.

[Crazytowel]

The only chance Christina has of getting impressive first week sales is if the media builds hype because of a BRITNEY vs Christina type thing. Sorry folks but it's true. Christina has failed to stay relevant.

Britney's label confirmed sales of 25 million for BOMT. Billbaord confirmed 11.8 million sales for Britney and Christinas label confirmed 3.7 million in sales for Back To Basics.

Check your facts next time.

Here's a source [Fox News] that says BOMT has sold 25 million copies as of July 2008.

Fox News? Really?

I need better confirmation.

Lookie here:
http://www.mediatraffic.de/alltime-album-chart.htm

and here:
http://www.britney.com/us/biography

and for kicks and giggles here:
http://www.chartsinfrance.net/commun..._gopid__577649

Mediatraffic doesn't include all countries but they do a damn good job so a million or two more for ...Baby One More Time and Oops!... I Did It Again is probable. Britney.com estimates are based on actual certifications, I believe. Again a million or two more is likely.

I looked at Billboard's Sales and they have

...Baby One More Time: 23,800,000
Oops!... I Did It Again: 20,800,00
Britney: 11,800,00

either way STILL outselling Christina. My numbers were correct, BOMT was off by a million copies.

Worldwidealbums.net isn't an official source. I've proved that website wrong many, many times with official confirmation. Back To Basics SHIPPED 4.3 million copies but it was confirmed by her label that sales were 3.7 million

I lost the link. But those numbers were on Billboard Magazines 300 Best Selling Albums worldwide. Try googling it. If you can't find it I'll try googling it as well.

Interesting.

What are Billboard's sources?
