August 4, 200618 yr Author has nana moskouri ever released anything in the UK/US, because she would have had to sell bucketloads in european and asian coutnries if she really has sold 300 mil
August 4, 200618 yr These are the only female artists to claim they have sold over 250 millions around the world Alla Pugacheva Russia 70s-00s Pop [5] Madonna 80s-00s Pop/Dance/Electronica [19] Nana Mouskouri Greece 60s-00s Pop Mariah Carey- Claims to have sold over 100 million Credit to wikipedia Edited August 4, 200618 yr by Ryan_P
August 4, 200618 yr Yep the artists above have definatly sold over 100 million. I know Mariah + Madonna have for a fact, and I thought Celine, Barbra Streisand have also :huh:
August 4, 200618 yr go to wikipedia the full list is there ones i can remember mariah, donna summer, madonna, barbara, Abba, Nana, Alla Pugacheva, Celine.
August 4, 200618 yr Yes, that Wikipidia list is definately fake.. Madonna is the biggest selling female artist, albums & singles combined. When only counting albums, it's Celine.. Celine has sold around/just over 180 million (it was 175 in 2004) albums, that 185 figure is a bit over the top, Mariah definately over 150 million and Madonna should be somewhere between Celine & Mariah..:) But this indeed is a very debatable subject..lol Edited August 4, 200618 yr by CSCfan
August 4, 200618 yr Author so is Nana's 300 million made up? although for her to go on one of the bigegst music events and confirm it seems to me she's quite confident she sold that many
August 4, 200618 yr :o I can't believe Britney has sold more than Kylie in albums terms... I believe Britney sold between 75-85 million in albums alone, but Allysa should confirm this figure as she's the expert.
