The truth about Britney Spears’ album sales in American continent

 North America – USA

As mentioned in the introduction, we already have enough information from the US to get a precise idea of sales of each of Britney’s albums. Additionally, for the US, rather than translating real sales into certifications, Britney.com has been listing official RIAA awards to avoid controversy.

The most efficient method to estimate Britney’s US album sales is to add together Soundscan sales plus BMG Music Club, then estimating Columbia House figures for her first two records, thanks to the previous addition, compared to her RIAA awards. This results in the following already known sales figures:

• Baby One More Time – 14,200,000
• Oops!… I did It Again – 10,500,000
• Britney – 5,200,000
• In The Zone – 3,300,000
• Greatest Hits, My Prerogative – 1,650,000
• Blackout – 1,050,000
• Circus – 1,800,000
• The Singles Collection – 275,000
