September 30, 200618 yr Also sales are alot lower now than they were years ago so people who have been around longer will have sold so much more for that reason aswel.
October 1, 200618 yr Who REALLY cares though? Yeah she's had a big single, she will NEVER, I repeat NEVER be considered a bigger artist in most peoples eyes than Britney or Madonna, nor will she ever eclipse their total sales. but her single Hips Dont Lie is better than anything Britney and Madonna have done ^_^
October 1, 200618 yr LMFAO...and in 25 years, in fact, 25 months... EVERYONE bar the Latin speaking countries (who, let's face it, buy Ricky bloody Martin records) will be asking who the hell Shakira is. Hips Don't Lie is chav scum nonsense... my least favourite single of the whole year..... it's nothing but this year's Macarena. Toe-curlingly AWFUL. what c**p
October 1, 200618 yr ...yeah.. I AM right... thankyou for that - and time will tell. She's been around 5 years - nothing.... NOTHING in comparison to the artists the rather stupid thread-starter compared her to. Ricky Martin was around for far more than 5 years and had equal success. Where's he now, eh? Shakira doesn't deserve to breathe the same air as Madonna, and only someone who doesn't know a thing about pop music would say she does. I think that means you. I actually hopes Shakira proves you wrong because you come across as annoying know it all I dont like you very much
October 1, 200618 yr I don't get why madonna fans have to attack everyone ... mariah, kelly c, britney and xtina just stop with it.. yeah oral fixation shoudn't have made the stupid thread title but hopefully it will changed and no more threads that will make people dislike shakira will be made. Its because they cant accept there are other successful female artists
October 1, 200618 yr Yes, welcome to the Shakira forum!! :D :D I think the Madonna fans are just retaliating because the original title was so harsh ^_^
October 1, 200618 yr OHHHHHH WHATEVER don't worry about what that hater said! i live here in the US and dido fan shut up!!! because madonna lol unfurtunately isn't getting a lot of attention while shakira is all over !!!!! and your NUMBERS ARE SO WRONG SHAKIRA HAS SOLD MORE THAN 7 MILLIONS WITH OF VOL 2 !loL SHE IS ALREADY PLATINUM HERE IN THE USA!!!!!!!and if you don't know she has the spanish market and whatever she does it becomes PLATINUM = more than 7 millions ok ! also this is a double project and fijacion oral sold 5 millions !!!! preatty decent for an all spanish album! I LIKE DIDO BUT ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz where is she ?????? uhhh :huh:
October 1, 200618 yr woa is that just from 4 singles? :o yep not including don't bother which was a sizeable worldwide hit plus we have the 3rd single and possible 4th from OF2 so her total will continue to grow
