Even Celine? Around 200 million. It helps that she has a gazillion albums, though.  [Edited 9/17/07 9:10am] | |

Even Celine? Albums alone, around 200 million. It helps that she has a gazillion albums, though. Has she sold more albums and singles than MADONNA? | |

No one has, I think. Maybe MJ, Elvis and The Beatles? | |

VoicesCarry said: Martinelli said: absolutely not Yes, she has. Why is it always the Madonna fans that have the problem? No, it's Janet fans who seem 2 think she's huge outside the US. Don't get me wrong..I really like her. But It's just not true. by 1995 she had sold 48 million albums worldwide.. Her last 3 albums combined, sold less than 1.5m copies in Europe... Where does the 50 million come from? India? China? ...Your coochie gonna swell up and fall apart... | |

Madonna has sold more - you "win". [Edited 9/17/07 9:19am] | |

[Edited 9/17/07 9:19am] She certainly emerged out of the huge shadows of her older brother, and did quite well for herself. Madonna never had to deal with having Michael Jackson as her older brother. | |

VoicesCarry said: Rodya24 said: That is just fanatics speculating about Thriller sales. Whether or not this new album is good, it will sell at least one million. If Janet Jackson could do it with Damita Jo and 20 YO, Michael Jackson can do it. Michael will easily sell a million in the US, probably 10 million worldwide. He is one of the few remaining stars that possesses a truly global fanbase. I don't see him selling 10 milion worldwide. His "star" has fallen. nWo: bboy87 - Timmy84 - LittleBlueCorvette - MuthaFunka - phunkdaddy - Christopher

Yeah, but that was 6 years ago and before that last scandal. That's a lot of wishful thinking at this point. nWo: bboy87 - Timmy84 - LittleBlueCorvette - MuthaFunka - phunkdaddy - Christopher

Well, that's fine and dandy for MJ fans, I guess. But this wasn't a comparison, it was just about what's happened to him since his last album. nWo: bboy87 - Timmy84 - LittleBlueCorvette - MuthaFunka - phunkdaddy - Christopher

That's a lot of wishful thinking at this point. Fine. You do not think Michael Jackson will sell 500,000 copies of his upcoming album. In the words of VoiceCarry, you "win." | |

Means that if there are one million Janet Jackson fans still willing to purchase her last two albums, there are at least one million Michael Jackson fans willing to purchase his upcoming one. | |

Even people in my generation (those who were born after Thriller, Bad, Dangerous, and even HIStory). | |
