'I Am Sasha Fierce' outside the USA. It debuted with like 30K in the UK which was insanely low for Beyonce, even though she had the #1 hit If I Were a Boy

 

eventually became her best-selling album in most places

Sasha's UK chartrun is insane. Debuting at #10 and peaking at #2 in its 39th week. It literally refused to leave the top 40 forever and kept coming back stronger each single.

 

It rose and came back with a vengeance.

Stripped debuted at #19 in the UK but eventually peaked at #2 and ended up becoming one of the biggest female albums of all time there selling 2.1 million pure sales thanks to its insane longevity.
