ATRL - Artist Stats: Britney Spears: Charts & Sales Receipts

Legend ReX · , 12:35 AM

So apparently the sales for Britney's first two albums in Japan don't include cassettes, which were very popular until 2000. To think we could add a few hundred thousand to her total.

First, here are Spears' U.S. album sales to-date:

10.5 million, "…Baby One More Time," 1999
9.2 million, "Oops!...I Did It Again," 2000
4.4 million, "Britney," 2001
3 million, "In the Zone," 2003
1.7 million, "Circus," 2008
1.4 million, "Greatest Hits: "My Prerogative," 2004
1 million, "Blackout," 2007
755,000, "Femme Fatale," 2011
209,000, "The Singles Collection," 2009
131,000, "B in the Mix: The Remixes," 2005
24,000, "B in the Mix: The Remixes: Vol. 2," 2011

Spears' career album sales in the U.S. total 32.5 million. That makes her the 16th-best-selling album artist since the advent of SoundScan data in 1991.

Since she's closing in on 20 million digital songs sold in the US alone, even after adding in "Toxic", "Everytime", and "...Baby One More Time" there are 5 million digital sales unaccounted for which means she has sold 5 million old and non- singles since the digital era started. I wonder what this extrapolates to worldwide? 5+ million JUST for being Britney. EPIC.

So for other digital songs/singles - ~8 million

TOTAL: ~73.505 million

NOTE: These do NOT include ringtone sales. What do you think?

It's how many DVD's she has shipped/sold in Brazil. According to those numbers, she has shipped/sold about 47,000 dvds. I believe they are shipments, not sales.

Manchs · , 7:53 PM

^ I think those codes come on every disc. Pretty good numbers, 40k is platinum here.

Jennifer · , 10:51 PM

I think Britney is definitely around 75 million singles worldwide, not counting ringtones or any of that mess.

And definitely 80 million albums, so she's well over 150 million records.

Her album sale >>>> Her single sale

Some artists like Rihanna and Lady Gaga will not be able to sell 100million records without single sales.
