do you have a proof because what you just said doesn't seem correct at all. sales are low in jan-feb and high in oct-dec, but there can't be any noticeable difference between march and may
+ the majority of Britney's sales are from the second quater anyway

It seems her legacy is coming to an end. Even mother ****ing Adele from mother ****ing United Kingdom sold more than 350k first week.

Right? And 3 of Madonna's first 7 albums didn't even go #1, while Britney only had 1 that didn't reach the top of the charts. So I'd say 6/7 albums going #1 is pretty impressive.

FF numbers are OK.

A non-biased realistic comment from someone who doesn’t even like her.

I'm well aware of the fact that there is a little bit of sales boost, but it really wouldn't make much of a difference for somebody like Britney. I'd rather her go #1 with 280k now than go #2 with 350k+ later.

I was expecting between 350k to 400k, but 278k are still good sales for a 7th album. I'm really happy for her. The Album will not die.

I mean, some of you bitches act like Britney has been pulling numbers like this for years. ....Circus JUST sold 500K opening week. I can see if Britney was pulling 40K opening week for 3 albums straight...but she isn't and never will.
On top of that, we all have to remember how HIAM came and went -- the lead single didn't really build the public hype for the CD like Womanizer did 3 years ago.

Chris Brown needed to cry on the BET Awards, promotion for 2 years, ponying up to Justin Bieber's stanbase, two mix tapes, a busted window at GMA and dick pictures just to pull that ****.

Let’s not forget “Circus” was her media comeback, she was slowly promoting since September. Public appearances, award shows appearances, magazine covers, the documentary, etc.

Not bad numbers, though I was expecting more as well. Oh btw, those records that she set are impressive.
