I know, but if we do 2000-2012, wouldn't she make the top 5?

It should be interesting to see who tops this decade's list. Looks like Gaga and Adele are already in the lead.

Since bursting onto the music scene 10 years ago, Kelly Clarkson has released 5 studio albums ("Thankful," "Breakaway," "My December," "All I Ever Wanted," "Stronger"), sold over 21 million albums worldwide

http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news/2...20120501abc04/

Quote:

As is well known by now, Clarkson first appeared on the public’s radar in 2002 during the first season of American Idol. “When I auditioned, my apartment in Los Angeles had recently burned down and I had a box of photographs to my name,” Clarkson says. “I figured I’d get to sing and make some money to pay the bills. Nobody thought that show was going to be what it is now.” Of course Clarkson won and went on to become an international pop icon, selling over 20 million albums worldwide

Thankful = 4 Million
Breakaway = 15 Million
My December = 2 Million
All I Ever Wanted = 1.5 Million
Stronger = 1.1 Million

By bitch.

Adele is selling as hell... she could ends as the biggest selling female of 10s.

the second place could be between Rihanna or Gaga

Bitch, Breakaway has sold only 12 Million WW, and My December hasn't even reached 1 Million WW.

Even with your inflated receipts, Mariah's total is higher than Kelly's.

Charmbracelet = 4 Million
The Emancipation of Mimi = 12 Million
E=MC² = 2.5 Million
Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel = .75 Million
Merry Christmas II You = .6 Million
Glitter = 4 Million
Greatest Hits = 1.5 Million
The Remixes = .3 Million

Total = about 25 Million WW

Sis, if we were talking 90s, Mariah, Celine, Whitney, and Madonna would easily top this list.
