Anticipating Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) Welcome to the Britney Spears Sales Thread! The purpose of this thread is to detail, archive and discuss Britney's sales, peaks, chart-runs, achievements and tours. Listed below are album and track sales, tour grosses and accolades among other stats and figures. Estimations are based off of known figures, chart-runs, peaks and certifications adjusted for market climate and size to provide a concrete estimation for a single song or album. « Worldwide Album Sales - 84,000,000 • Worldwide Single Sales - 85,000,000 • Worldwide Video Sales • 3,650,000 » « Worldwide Record Sales - 173,300,000 » Britney's record sales stand at under 200,000,000 based on known figures and meticulous estimations alone. As much as we have tried to cover as many of her sales as possible, it is simply not plausible that we could cover every single market and sales figure across the globe. Britney's full record sales must stand at over 200,000,000 records.

FBF Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 We need to check her sales tbh. 180M records or whatever it exactly was sounds pretty conservative imo. She's for sure closer to 200M than that imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drmkng Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) The queen herself said her album sales were 105m and as long as I remember that was in femme fatale era.

Britney also said BOMT is 10 years old, so we all know she's not very good with numbers. 100 million albums is label inflation and often confused with record sales (albums + singles + DVDs). Britney has sold around or close to 80 million albums worldwide, which would make her the 6th or 7th best selling female of all time (albums-wise).
