Femme Fatale? Also crossed the 2,500,000 copies WW. Hold It Against Me broke a radio record (that was broken right after, but still, it broke); Till The World Ends was her first video to cross 100M views; I Wanna Go was Britney's biggest radio hit and also hit 100M views on Youtube. TTWE and IWG were ACTUALLY played on the radio and everyone seemed to like it! They were smash hits!
And Britney? You mean an album that overall sold more than many careers combined? Where Im A Slave 4 U was taken? Boys? Overprotected? I mean classics?
You need to educate yourself.

How about no.
Gimme More was the only successful single from the album, and has only been certified platinum in the US and sold barely anything WW. Piece of Me flopped in the US and many other countries as well. Blackout was only certified platinum in the US and wasn't certified higher than platinum anywhere else. That, for 2007, is embarrassing.
Where did you get this 2,500,000 figure from? IF you add up all the available sales then it comes to 1,335,500, with 1,000,000 of that coming from the US. TTWE and IWG were local, TTWE only 2 times platinum in the US and IWG not certified anything.
Britney sold 5,000,000 in the US at a time when she was at her 'peak' and the worldwide sales come to about 7,000,000, so how did this sell more than some people's careers combined? It sold less than Born This Way in 2001, when the sales climate was a lot more album based and only went number one in 4 countries.
I'm a Slave 4 U is not a classic and never will be. It had mixed reviews from critics, didn't go number one in a single country and according to the certifications it has only sold ~190,000 copies. Overprotected also didn't go number one anywhere and sold barely anything, INOGNYAW went number one in Japan only and its only certification is gold in Australia, Boys only even slightly broke the top 10 in the UK, Belgium and Ireland. Not to mention Britney didn't get good reviews either. The whole era was a disaster.

Yes is the only correct answer to this question, even if a Mya stan says it it's still true.

She's busy working on her next masterpiece and preparing for a Vegas show. 
Plus she just smashed with her hit single Scream and Shout just last year.

All that its fake, you don't even know what are you talking about.
1) "Piece of me" was the biggest hit of "Blackout" everywhere, including the US, "POM" is nearly 2x platinum in US, peaked at #2 in UK and its the highest "Blackout" selling single WW.
2) Blackout was certified 2x Platinum in Australia, and 3x Platinum in Russia, so that thing you say about "Balckout" not being certified higher than platinum everywhere is false.
3) "Britney" sold 11million copies WW ,and its one of the 50 best selling albums of the decade.  , 5M in US, certified 2x platinum by IFPI for more than 2M in Europe, plus multi-platinum in Canada, latin america, asia and Oceania.
4) Femme fatale has sold actually 12M records WW (albums + singles sales)

LMAO. "Piece of Me" flopped in the US but has sold more copies than "Gimme More" both here and worldwide? It flopped in "many other countries" yet went top ten in 12 countries, six of them top five and has Platinum certifications, plus made impressive markings on some global year-end charts in 2008, despite only being released in November that year? Not to mention it was met with critical acclaim. The only reason it didn't hit the top 10 of Billboard was because radio held back on spinning it, which since she was at the height of her meltdown was reasonable.
"TTWE" isn't only 2x Platinum, it has sold ~2.8 million, which is more than most of Gaga's singles bar her only real success "JD", "PF" and "Bad Romance".
I don't know or want to know how you came up 7 million for Britney, it has been cited to have sold 11 million copies by many credible publications.
Britney era still produced several worldwide top ten singles, regardless of the couple countries you plucked out. The sales, tour and impact of that era were still strong, disaster it was not.
Death at selling less than Born This Way, when that has hardly scanned 6 million worldwide, backed by the frontloaded 2 million in its first week. That's a real disaster of an era, sweetheart.

Yes. She became basic in recent years. Her name is the only thing that keeps her relevant, but it will not push her forever.

It's great that you wanna join the Army and become a stan, but first you need actual facts about the queen. Do some more research on the queen boo and come back with actual receipts
