Lil Wayne is the only recent example in the US....
Utada, although a bad example, is a Japanese artist who holds the record for most first week album sales in the world, ever. with 3.5 million in 2001.
Ayumi Hamasaki competed against her the same week and hold the second record with 2.7 million sold.

The point is, the music industry is in a state where massive sales are very rare. If we were back in 2001, she could probably do it, but not in 2010, things are different.

Bad examples, really...
It was 2001...
a Japanese act, when we are clearly talking about US sales here...
She can't be successful in the UK cos she's not British? WTF?
That's not what I mean.
Maybe those artist do better in the UK because they more marketed in the UK.
Taylor isn't.
Maybe I should have said that the first time.

All I was saying was who Utada was because Sha brought her up and Vini didn't know who she was.
I said nothing abotu whether Taylor could sell that much.
Too far.
