CSCfan Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Like I've said on a few other sites, there's no way that this could be albums only.... At the end of 2004, Céline had sold about 175 million albums..there's NO way she could have sold 45 million more albums between then and now. That's just impossible. (And there's no way Mariah is higher than Celine, even with albums & singles combined) Quote »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» MATHIAS ««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzPrxI0AIDY
CSCfan Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Oh, and apparently, there is some debate about where this chart originated and how authentic it is. Quote »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» MATHIAS ««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzPrxI0AIDY

Ronny83 Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 I've just found out that this piece of news is from Hagdonna's official website, www.madonna.com. Quote The Celine Dion Italian fanbase - CelineDionItalia.com
Bellamy Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 I've just found out that this piece of news is from Hagdonna's official website, www.madonna.com. <{POST_SNAPBACK}>as if she is the real best selling female artist.

Céline's Blues Posted January 24, 2006 Author Posted January 24, 2006 (edited) Yeah, her official site gave the info. But I still think that list is bull. Céline's site also gave the info about her being the BEST selling artist and BEST SINGER EVER. The Hag and The Silicon Dwarf should go and hide.

CSCfan Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Apparently, the list originated from Wikipedia.. (it's on a lot of major sites, but the list is just bogus) Quote »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» MATHIAS ««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzPrxI0AIDY

Nando Férri Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 It's included SINGLES and ALBUNS people... Don't forget that Celine is OFFICIALLY the best FEMALE selling ALBUNS ever... But not RECORDS... Quote http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4ejungtQy1r9swpco6_250.gif
CSCfan Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 It's still fake..And it can't be albums & singles, because Shania's sales is about right (and that is definately albums only)..

Bellamy Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 yes, the chart is 100% fake. Quote Please support the forum by ordering everything through our special Amazon.com link Click here. Thank you!

CSCfan Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 So? These days single sales are almost non existant.. Anyway, that list is just bogus. Quote »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» MATHIAS ««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzPrxI0AIDY
