Why? Just because this thread is not well done? With that avi, one would think you'd know about actual embarrassing things.

The list is a combined total of all albums and singles sold. Not the highhest certified. The amount of copies you need to reach platinum with an album is completely different than the amount of singles.

 

Platinum is 600k for singles and 300k for albums.

 

So, obviously, Madonna is the highest certified female in the history of the United Kingdom since she has sold by far the most albums.

 

But Rihanna's numbers are very impressive too. She owns the digital era.

P!nk is such a legend. Ahead of so many other females and Top5 already.

I tried to create a correct list based on actual certifications for albums and singles. Platinum for an album is 300k and for a single 600k.

 

Based on those, these are the Top3 most certified females.

 

Madonna 75xPlatinum

Rihanna 64xPlatinum

Adele 53xPlatinum

 

If you include only albums, the Top3 is:

 

Madonna 57xP

Adele 36xP

Celine Dion 31xP

These lists expose how local certain females are and they have the nerve to call themselves best selling female of all time and other lies like that. We are not saying names!

Mariah. She is even behind Pink, Kylie, Whitney, Rihanna, Tina Turner etc. when it comes to album sales and nowhere to be seen when it comes to singles sales.

 

Janet Jackson too.
