xBoySelenatorx Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 4 hours ago, FanOfPop said: Updated. Rihanna still remains unbothered - in fact, she extended her lead and is now on over 192 million records sold. AMAZING! Nicki Minaj and Hailee Steinfeld also got some certifications recently, but that didn't move a spot on the list. Fergie and Camila Cabello move 2 spots - the former BEP singer is now #25 while former 5H singer is #52. Bebe Rexha moves 1 spot and surpasses Carly Rae Jepsen. I added Julia Michales - she's the last one on the list though. Awesome thread! what certification made fergie rise?

FanOfPop Posted June 20, 2018 Author Posted June 20, 2018 Updated. Taylor Swift and Christina Aguilera remains stable - #2 and #20 respectively with some of their updated certifications. Missy Elliott, Jhene Aiko and Dua Lipa debut on the list thanks to their recent certifications.

Karasu Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 48. CARLY RAE JEPSEN: 13 million records sold (13 million singles) undercertified legend
Karasu Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 Tiffany should be one this list tho her debut is like four times platinum and her second album is platinum as well.
luxoricious Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 How can Kesha be bigger than Cher and Jennifer Lopez? I can't at the music's 21st century millenials listen to.
Karasu Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 The Supremes - 6 million. Diana Ross - Eight million. Add these as well ~

Kesha‘s whole discography as Ke$ha is actually undercertified because her certifications haven’t been updated since 2011, so the difference is probably even bigger.
Erreur2 La Nature Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 It's crazy how some of them are undercertified. Selena #18
HeWolf Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) you should consider doing separate lists for singles and albums. Mixing them just doesnt seem right Selling 5 million albums is clearly not the same as having some cute streaming that got your single to be 5xPlatinum Edited June 20, 2018 by HeWolf
FanOfPop Posted June 26, 2018 Author Posted June 26, 2018 OP updated. Miley Cyrus, Jennifer Lopez and Bebe Rexha all got one certification for an album (Miley) and for singles (J. Lo and Bebe) but they all remain at the same position as before. Camila Cabello moves 3 spots and cracks Top 50 with her latest certifications for singles. Also, new addition to the list - Becky G.
Orpheus Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 RIAA really need to make these certifications automatic like their UK counterparts. It's becoming ridiculous in 2018
Rumystic Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 Camila sold 12M albums+singles and she's just in her debut era!! wow
Exzime. Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 Camila slaying Hopefully the era is still going so she can snatch some sales!
beatinglikeadrum Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 And Katy still being undercertified...with 4 eras.
