Mariah is the #1 best selling non-asian recording artist in ASIA (among all recording artist, male, female groups)
Mariah is the 3rd highest certified female albums artist in the United States (#1 among females on soundscan 1991-)
Mariah is one of the 10 best selling female recording artists of all times in Europe
South American exposure, Brazil: Mariah's entire catalogue is basically Gold or better which includes her 2 most recent releases where Brazil became the only country in the world to award MIAM (2014) and Infinity (2015) a gold cert.
Britney career trajectory isn't that impressive with 2 huge selling albums and then decreasing indefinately, wheres mariah remained of a high selling level throughout her first decade, and amassed a commercial resurrection 15 years into it. TEOM alone sold 6,1m copies on soundcan, an achievement not many ppl can actually claim for themselves among more recent artists.
