    Carrie’s Some Hearts becomes the bestselling idol CD ever

  • squishy

    Go Carrie!

  • Nevada

    Regarding Carrie’s “Some Hearts” overtaking Kelly’s “Breakaway” as the best-selling Idol album to date…Carrie reached 5.8 million (and change…I hate rounded numbers) in 89 weeks, while it took Kelly 139 weeks to do the same.

    Or to look at it another way, at 89 weeks, “Breakaway” had sold 5,475,336 copies and was # 78 on the SoundScan 200.

    So Clive was right in handing out that golden trophy to Carrie? Carrie rulez! :clap_tb:

    Can we stick a fork in “My December” yet? :rolleyes_tb:

  • sammy

    Can there really be anyone left who has not bought Daughtry’s and Carrie’s albums? What took them so long to decide they wanted them?
