And ASIB is at #47, above other legendary albums like Madonna's True Blue and Like a Virgin, Katy Perry's Teenage Dream, Tina Turner's Private Dancer, Beyoncé's I'm Sasha Fierce, Britney's Oops, and Rihanna’s Good Girl Gone Bad.

The Fame is actually the eighth best-selling female album (and should jump to #6 soon), as the Spice Girls are not a singer, but a group.

I think TF is outselling all others except Adele and Amy on a weekly basis?

I think The Fame should be excluded from the list as it includes male artists on songs and this is a list of female artists.

QUOTE(k👠th @ Oct 17 2021, 02:47 PM) ABBA have male members so they can't be a female act This doesn't invalidate the fact that they are women, and to say that ABBA can't be considered a female act just because it has men in it (who don't even sing in the songs) is a sexist statement. All I said is that a girl groups isn't the same as a female solo act. |

QUOTE(Adelita @ Oct 17 2021, 07:29 PM) All I said is that a girl groups isn't the same as a female solo act. Which has nothing to do with the fact that Official Charts published an article of best selling albums by female artists. Spice Girls are an all-female act, so they're applicable to be considered to have released a "female album". ABBA is not a female artist. They're a male and female artist, which makes them a mixed gender artist. Spice is by far the best selling album by a female group, that's why they're the only one amongst a list of solo female artists. The second best selling is 1.6m (Spice Girls again, with Spiceworld) which is too low for this list. |

There is nothing sexist or invalidating about it. |
