Okay, Adele fans, we got the memo specifically directed to the Britney thread, that she's the best artist ever, Grammy-winning, record-breaking, true talent, real music, etc. :-?

Like Norah Jones, Amy Winehouse, Alicia Keys, Duffy, Susan Boyle.
Just give her 5 years. Then we can talk bout Britney vs rest of ther world, ok?
BTW Love Adele and hope she will be the first who stay with us.
I wish Duffy stayed. IMO her Stepping Stone is a master piece and none of Adel's work can even compare to it.
Sorry for off topic.
Hope the video for TTWE can actually help the song and album sales. This time her team did things the right way and the video is not too late like HIAM.
I cannot believe people are complaining about sales of 278,618 ..... WTF?
Well, she´s not a developing artist, but a stablished icon...
Given that, the album is supposed to thumble next week. 113k of its sales were digital, because of the "complete my album" thing on i-tunes.
Considering Hits Daily Double already mentioned Adele is going to be #1 this week (and Britney is not even mentioned in the prediction...), and Adele´s album is stable between 85-95k every week, it´s pretty certain that Britney will sell less then 100k this week. My prediction is 80k.

Alicia Keys is around since 2001, just 2 years later then Britney, and since then she has not had an album that you can call a "flop". Her latest is her weakest selling, and still it did almost 2 million in USA, and more then a million in the UK, Britney´s Circus and Blackout could only wish! So why do you talk about her as a "has-been", or has if she had gone away???? She could still release a new album any day and it would sell loads more then Femme Fatale.
/FAIL!!!!!!
Amy Winehouse sold 13 million copies of her last album... She has not released a follow up yet, but you rule her out as a has-been!!!
/FAIL #2!!!!
Plus, it´s not just about the sales. I don´t think Norah Jones or Alicia Keys would trade their lives for Britney´s. It´s not like they have "failed" to reach stardom. They have SUCEEDED in keeping their lives private, while selling millions of records. Britney´s life was ruined by the paparazzi and the media and you can almost tell by looking at her face she is far from being a happy human being, let alone a satisfied artist! When she performs in stage, I get the feeling she is doing a painful obrigation. There isn´t any excitement on her part. She doesn´t write her music, she doesn´t sing live, just lipsyces.
They have already came out, and Britney is not mentioned.
All they say is Adele will be back at #1. Considering her sales are stable between 80k/100k, then it´s almost certain Britney´s sales will fall below 100k. It was to be expected! Chris Brown opened with bigger numbers and has fallen to just 91k on the second week. 113k of Britney´s sales this week have been digital, mostly by people who downloaded her singles and are now completing their album. This caused HIAM sales to be "negative" on this week´s chart.
I wouldn't call those performances in the release week ''good promo''. Good promo would've been Ellen, American Idol, + some other tv show in the weeks prior the album's release.
She did Ellen, but it was postponed.
She can´t be on Idol cause that a contest show for singers, why would they ask someone who can barely sing and will only lipsyce there?
I must say that I looove Brit, and FF, and she's really lovely person ...
but I need to ask her fans WHY are they mad on people who says only the facts- that Britney can't sing live! that's the biggest true ever!
and you all know that, and you're saying some really bad things about amy, duffy, alicia, norah and adele I mean you can't do that, those girls are true talent, and they can always sing live, Britney can't and that's a fact! Deal with that guys!!!
Obviously, haters are very pressed. If they're happy and satisfied with their favorite artists' music or success, then they don't need to troll on threads repeating the same stuff over and over again. They are the ones who are very unhappy, not Britney, as they always claim. Also, do you notice that they keep claiming they know about everything? Hilarious.
If they can say so many "bad" things about Britney, why can't others say the same about others? This is not a fansite, this is a messageboard open to everyone's opinions.
Don't hold it against us when no one in this thread likes your fave!
