That actually makes sense.. U2 holdin' steady at #2 while these rap dolphins (last week Jigga, this week Luda) fly up to #1 for a brief stay

at U2. In 3 weeks, this cd has almost sold as much as Pop did in 6 years!
at Jay Z/R Kelly who are already down to 150! How many weeks has their cd been out?

Quest for world domination COMPLETE. Saline tits to explode causing nuclear holocaust in 5....4.....3.....2....1.... Have a nice day.

poor Gwen... she tried

It's still a somewhat fun album. You wouldn't know it by the charts but it's hard to please the masses.

They're real dammit!

VoicesCarry said:

Better start hording becuase it's the end of the world! It's only for a week, you know that? This album has no staying power and I'd even venture to bet that the buyers included housewives that think their daugther is into Lindsey (but they are probably wrong). Just look at her boobs and you'll forget about it. I have...forgetten about...what.

CynicKill said:

I predicted the fall. It's a pop dance (with some R&B) album in a hip-hop radio age. It couldn't make it. The single didn't hit (even though I liked it). It might have legs, but I'm doubting it. Too bad other people won't be able to enjoy, that's what I say.

ehuffnsd said:

There's too much competition right now.Gwen probably should have released her album after the holiday rush...say,in February,when it would have had a better chance.

Gwen is still doing well overseas though is she not? At least she is in Australia. Her single was #1 for a couple of weeks. If you can sell well worldwide, you will really bring in the big $$$

WildStyle said:

Most definitely.And I don't think there's a reason to panic just yet.Her album still has several strong future singles.
