    Any numbers for Katharine after last week’s appearance ??

  • Kirsten

    Any numbers for Katharine after last weekà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s appearance ??

    We’ll probably get some numbers from her this afternoon when Ken posts them on Idol Chatter. We only have the download stats for now and she didn’t sing a song on the show that she had previously recorded for iTunes. She’ll likely get a boost on album sales.

    Considering that the CDs of all AI Alums have been on sale for $7.99 for the last few weeks, Ken’s charts will probably show nice jumps for most of the Idols’ CDs. Great promo for all of them.

    Katharine: 500; 200; 369,000. (Slight boost from Idol appearance last Wednesday.)

    Sorry, couldn’t find any SoundScan numbers for Katharine.

  • gabam

    Darn, I thought the iTunes sale would cause a large increase in sales for the Idols. Wrong again. *sigh*

    Kat’s appearance on the show increased her sales by 300 from the previous week. I wonder if the iTunes sale helped with that increase too.

  • jpfan

    Next week will be the one year anniversary of Elliott’s album so very cool that it will hit 500K that same week.

  • Tony

    Yeah. A 500K anniversary is pretty nice. He’s come so far since Idol.

  • ealbino

    Yay…Thanks for the numbers Tony. :clap_tb:
