Diva Wars!
Okay, time for a closer look at the head to head battle of
Madonna v. Mariah.
Mariah’s ‘E=MC2′ album came out on April 15… 2 weeks
before Madonna’s ‘Hard Candy’ hit stores on April 29.
US Week 1 sales:
Mariah - 460,000
Madonna - 280,000
(Mariah wins by 180,000 copies)
Worldwide Week 1 sales:
Mariah - 617,000
Madonna - 802,000
(Madonna wins by 185,000 copies)
Mariah Carey is clearly the Queen of the USA sales market.
Them yanks just love her! Her album is ALREADY inches away from selling ONE
MILLION COPIES IN AMERICA! Madonna can’t even boast to have sold HALF that
amount… But sit back down Mariah fans.. There are more countries in this world
than America! The USA is just ONE of the 24 countries that round out the stats
of the WORLD album chart - a chart that MADONNA IS DOMINATING!!!
Currently, these are the statistics on the worldwide
albums chart:
Madonna - Hard Candy
Sales: 1,582,000
Weeks since release: 4
Ave sales per week: 395,500
Mariah Carey - E=MC2
Sales: 1,401,000
Weeks since release: 6
Ave sales per week: 233,500
MADONNA IS THE QUEEN OF THE WORLD!
She has ALREADY passed Mariah on sales! And Mariah had a 2 week head start!
After only 4 weeks Madonna has already sold 181,000 MORE copies to fans, and is
averaging 162,000 MORE copies per week on a worldwide scale!!!
Prediction:
Mariah has been out 6 weeks now, so expect that her first 2 singles, videos,
wedding, performances and interviews have done all they can do to help her - and
her fans would have snapped the album up in week one! Look out for her to start
fading to amounts under 80,000 per week worldwide within the next week or two.
Coming soon:
Madonna has just released her second single/video - Give It To Me. The video
sucks. Will it get attention due to sucking and help her sell copies? Will
people be turned off and make her sales SUFFER? I dont know.. I cant guess..

MORE SOON!
