Madonna had around 420K with music (I think) and 241K for American Life. Janet had 600K+ for All For You and 381K with Damita Jo. This is, however, Mariah's best opening week ever, beating the 320K that Rainbow shifted in its first week.

well,considering madonna and janet only release albums ever 4/5 yrs etc (not

an exact estimate) then yeah, they probably do have 600k openings!

Mariah usually has an album EVERY yr (apart from Mimi)

This is not just an opening number-it is an absolute vindication for every fan

of MC, against every naysayer of Mariah like, 'Mariah is a has-been, (sorry

have u checked j-lo's figures?).....and, 'i like early Mariah', (is that

the 'early' Mariah who was derided as a poor man's version of Michael Bolton?)

Puleeeeeze people!!!

She has outsold Janet and Madonna!! (soundscan exact figures)

She is the most copied vocalist of this age!

she might not show a tit (like Janet) or her whole crotch (like Madonna)

but she demands respect!!! (and enuf of this piss....JANET:'im explorin my

sexuality!!!'.....ur nearly forty....contain urself!!!

And old Madge, 'ill write about sex addled fantasies in the early 1990s, but

10 yrs later...ill write childrens' books...what a schizo..!!

Doesnt make a damn difference wen uve been photographed bein rogered by vanilla

Ice!! (seriously, it took madge yrs 2 recover from the sex book-she only got

respect from Ray Of Light, about 5/6 yrs later) razz

I'm happy she made number one. I'm even happier that someone finally dethroned Fiddy Cent. Congrats, Mimi.

What's your problem?

Anyway, you've mentioned The Name That Shall Not Be Mentioned If You Want a Sane Thread (and coupled it with derogatory comments, too), so let's not mention it again wink

And don't tell jayaredee or DavidEye.

i dont have a problem!

lol

but u must admit, some of the flak Mariah has received on this board is damn out

of order, (lack of clothes, songs, actual singing, etc) compare it 2 the grand

dames of pop and I feel Mariah has had a really unfair time-why???

Cos she sings successful songs, in a way most people can't???

Hellloooo???

Wot is she supposed 2 b-bloody Mozart??

'people' only shadow their artisitic shortcomings with dancing!!

Puleeeze-in this day and age.....do u want Pavarotti 2 b doin the splits???...

or even worse...Aretha...lol biggrin

and now for the indigenous masses 2 rise.....

My best friend's mom used to say, "Tie Mariah's hands behind her back and I doubt she could sing a single note."

Apparently, it's true.

booo boo (passing the can of corn)


Anyway I'm glad that the album will top 50 Cents gibberish. I kinda wish The Game's albumw as still in the top 5 cuz it is much more enjoyable than 50's gang rappin'. rolleyes


Mariah's album is definitley hot just about every song is controlled and listenable. Plus it sounds like she had fun making the record. I wondered what was 'holding her back' to be Emancipated. Charmbracelet sure wasnt a "breaking free" of anything either.

I like the two songs that are currently being played on the radio. I am not sure if I will buy the cd - I have never bought a Mariah cd.

Good for her! She's got a great album and if she pushes 50 Cent from the top spot,then that's all the more reason to celebrate lol


You go Mariah!! biggrin
