It's Britney's Century!

[jadedomega]

Britney Spears is officially the biggest-selling female artist this century - selling more records than any other woman.

The pop babe - who even outsold her idol Madonna - has been more successful than any of her female peers in the past five years. Even big-name stars including Kylie, Dido, Beyonce, Celine Dion and Whitney Houston have been overshadowed by Britney's soaring sales.

A spokesperson from Jive Records said: "It really is extraordinary. Britney and everyone here are thrilled. To become the biggest selling female artist of the past five years was amazing, but to outsell Madonna over the past half a decade is beyond our wildest dreams. "It just goes to show what a musical force Britney is." Meanwhile, Britney has reportedly asked Madonna to be godmother to her not-yet-conceived firstborn.

The sexy singer, who is desperately trying for a baby with husband Kevin Federline, was said to be so thrilled when Madonna agreed she gave her a diamond-encrusted Cartier watch. The two celebrities have been friends since the singer introduced Britney to the mystic Jewish faith the Kabbalah over a year ago. Madonna has since laden the young star with lavish gifts including a 900-year-old Kabbalah book - worth thousand of pounds.


Go Job Brit!

I'm no fan of any of the singers mentioned, and I can say that if it depended on me only, they wouldn't have sold a single album.

This century has only been a century for less than 5 years.

We'll have a new best selling female artist of the century in a couple of decades. Maybe someone with talent... we can only hope.

I agree, like it or not she has made an enormous impact on pop music; she's a great product.

The earth is inhabited by a majority of people with bad musical tastes.
Fact.

one has to admit, Britney has been successful. Can't deny THAT.

 

[Sloan]

She is a processed pop star - that is it and it has made her a lot of money. Hopefully she will by bypassed by a better artist before our century is over!
