Still think it's annoying that Only Girl has overtook Umbrella to be her biggest selling, but it was inevitable really :(.

Can't believe 'A Girl Like Me' has sold that much :o - Great.

I really need updated 'Unfaithful' sales, should've sold at least another good 20k since I reckon!

So is Only Girl (In The World) her best selling single now? ^_^

Incredible!

 

Would love to see updated sales for 'Good Girl Gone Bad' though to see how far off she is until she outsells it. Rihanna has the best marketing team, of any popstar I know. They get it spot on with her!

If 1,692,392 is correct up to 02/01/2011 as Sammy previously posted, then its current sales are: 1,728,580, up to 20/03/2011. :D

 

Rated R is on 635,858.

Rihanna totals in order. Some are official totals, some are from MTV, some are estimates.

If anyone has more accurate figures for my six estimations, as well as all the MTV figures, that'd be wonderful to find out.

Thankyou Jay! :wub: Very much appreciated!!

Apparently according to the top 100 best selling girls of the 21st century Take a bow has sold 400,000 and Don't stop the music has sold 405,000. :D

Gah. INCREDIBLE. 'Loud' is "only" 500k behind 'Good Girl Gone Bad' then. Do we think it'll manage to beat it? Considering GGGB did it with a re-release and 'Loud' is yet to have one, I think it's a pretty astonishing achievement. (And so quick too!)

 

'Rated R''s sales are phenomenal too! WHO SAID IT WAS A FLOP?

WOW! Never knew she'd had so many sell over 200k! :mellow: Glad to see 'Take A Bow''s sales are very respectable. Hopefully 'Hate That I Love You' has sold a tiny bit more than that. It deserved to go top 10 and sell 200k+! :( - Apart from that I'm pretty pleased with everything else!

It's definitely an impressive list of sales. :wub:

 

Jaybird, I don't suppose you have a link for the Top 100 best selling girls of the 21st century? I trust that you're right, I just can't find the list! :lol: Maybe no one sat down and wrote it up while it was airing.

Just spotted that Music Week wrote that Rihanna has sold 9,152,614 singles in the UK!

 

My list above totals to roughly 8,725,000 - so, there's 425,000 of "missing" sales, which means across all the estimates and the MTV totals, certain singles have sold quite a bit more than stated.

 

I wish we could get an updated list!!

I don't have the link on hand but theyre bound to repeat the show on smash hits or 4 music at any point. :D
