This is just a portion of it all. Kelly is now an INTERNATIONAL artist. Face it. I seriously don't understand why you have the need to go against her. She's not even Shakira's core competition.
BTW, avoid exaggerating Shakira's sales. Laundry Service sold 13 Million worldwide, not 14 Million. And she did NOT sell over 30 Million at all.
Some may argue that discussing sales are pointless, that's your opinion. To me, they stand for an artist's popularity and, obviously, I have a habit of comparing. That shouldn't bother anyone. I come here to discuss music and sales. I'd appreciate it if I was left alone for doing so.
