Mariah's career in Jeopardy?


It is not going well with Mariah's career. The first single of her new album only reached Number 2 in the Billboard Hot 100 because Virgin discounted the single. The second single, Never Too Far, is down to Number 107, after peaking at Number 105.
The album Glitter dropped in Australia after three weeks in the list to Number 40, and in the UK the album debuted at Number 10. According to Billboard mid-week calculation the album will debut at Number 6 in the USA with 81,390 copies sold, after Jay-Z (320,568 copies), Nickelback (136,432 copies), Fabulous (116,132 copies), Alicia Keys (111,592 copies ) and POD (85,332 copies). Although these figures are only for the September 11 to September 17 period, it is unlikely Mariah will debut at Number 1.
So far, Mariah's popularity in Asia is the same as years ago. Glitter debuted at Number 1 in Japan and Never Too Far is already at Number 1 in different Asian countries for weeks. Lets hope the sales will go up once the movie hits the theaters.

Many thanks to Yuan Man from China.
