America

On the billboard site you can see the RIAA certification and you can see Madonna has sold over 1 million copies in America (disappointing isn't it?!) while Mariah has an RIAA 6, which means over 6 million copies sold in Amerika. So that' a difference of 5 million. And yes you can say it's only in Amerika, but did you know America is 42% of the entire musicmarket in the world. So having succes in Amerika and Japan like Mariah has is having succes in half the world. And about those number of sales, Madonna is 12 years older or something, Mariah has still got some time to catch up if she isn't tbe best selling female already. And why does every one has different numbers? something isn't right!

Mariah fans absent!!

Where are the MIMI fans? They have not posted any responses for the longest time? Really, they cannot argue, because madonna is the best selling female worldwide and that is what counts. Also Madonna has the most # 1 singles and also singles sales worldwide per country total than Mariah, so no need to argue.

Mimi's lies finally exposed!

I don't mean to undermind or bash Mariah, but when someone goes around talking the big talk and the truth comes out and is a lie, admit to it, say "my bad" or "my publicist made me say it" or something. If you were to ad Madonna's records, singles, vhs sales, dvd's, concert receipts, merchandise and book sales, Mariah is totally outsold and outclass. Madonna is the most successful female performer of all time, and BTW GUYS Billboard in their Centruy Awards in 2000 declared Madonna Best Selling Pop/Rock Female and Whitney Houston Best Selling R&B Female for the Century. Mariah Carey's name was nowhere to be found in that list. So if Guinness, Billboard, International Phonographic Federeation and Grammy Commities are wrong, then Mariah must have ****ed off a lot of very important people along the way for her to not be recognize by any of those organizations as the BEST SELLING FEMALE ARTIST OF ALL TIME, BUT MADOONA IS SHOWN TO BE BY ALL THOSE ORGANIZATIONS.

Madonna's awards

I've read all the postings on this site and here is the final word. The week of January 25, 2006 The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry & Grammy US, the two world-wide authority on album/single sales announced their list of 150 best selling music artist of all time and Madonna was listed at #4 with sales of 275Million(not counting last album sales) and Mariah Carey was list at #8 with 230Million, far behind Madonna. The only reason Madonna has never attended the world music awards is because she does not need the attention and besides Mariah was rumoured to be having an affair with Prince Albert for years, clearly Mariah's record company exaggerated about her record sales, and with this new official figures Madonna is given credit for being the true all time best selling female artist in the world

Let it go

i really can believe that this debate has started again. Damn, both women have great careers. let it go. Mariah has the best voice in the business, madge has the best brains (she;s a creative genius). Madonna is a cultural icon, and the most successful and popular woman on earth (due inpart to her being a slut) but still,no one can compare. (And Mariah is a slut too, look @ how she dresses). None of these ladies GIVE A FLYING F*CK whether you guys argue or not. let it go.

None are the best selling: that award was given to Celine Dion.

madge vs mariah

You madonna fans really think that madonna has sold 275 million. yeah, right. If in 2000 she was at 120 million (according to Guinness World records, the most trusted site on earch), where has the additional 155 come from? Dream on. Madonna has sold 150 million at most, Carey has sold 165.

PS:According to http://www.mediatraffic.de/albums.htm, COADF has not sold 7 million! And if Madonna was so great, where are her 17th #1?

how long

do u lambs really think mariah will sell another 50 million albums, and if so, how long do you think it will take, her current album has sold 8 million copies, so in order to do that mariah would need to record another 6 albums, most albums take about two years to record and release, which means that for mariah to reach the point madonna is at now, will take about twelve years.

however, madonna only needs to sell about 18 million to overtake elvis presley

COAD sold 6.4 million

As everyone knows, Thriller is the biggest selling album of all time. However at its peak thriller was selling about 1.5 million copies a month. Madonna sold 4 million in the first month, and as to this date (10 jan) has sold almost seven million copies, and is only 1.6 million copies less than mimi, who said madonna was finished?

learn to count

Mariah Carey fans are the most immature and ignorant people on earth. If I was Mariah I would be ashamed to have them as fans because they are reflecting poorly on her. No wonder she refers to you idiots as her flock of lambs. Your negative comments and attempts at starting a website dedicated to "ruining" Madonna's success (which it won't) have only started a flood gate of tons of negativity and bad reviews posted about your idol Mariah and if anything it just makes her look bad. Your negative attempts at putting down other females artists from Jennifer Lopez to Gwen Stefani and Janet Jackson all make you look pathetic as well.
Now you are posting your little comments about how Mariah is the biggest selling female artist. Well, you need a buy a calculator because if you could add you would realize that she isn't. It was posted that Mariah is listed as the biggest selling female artist according to the World Music Awards in the year 2000. This information is coming from www.wikipedia.org. If you check this website and compare Mariah's sales to Madonna's you will see that this information is dated. For starters that was FIVE years ago. This was stated PRIOR to Madonna releasing her album Music which went on to sell 14 million copies worldwide. Since then she has also sold another 10 million albums with her Greatest Hits Volume 2 and American Life releases. You then stated that Mariah Carey has sold 230 million albums worldwide. The 230 million you speak of is her total for both album AND single sales worldwide. Under the album and single discographies for Mariah (on www.wikipedia.org) you will note that her total album sales are listed as 180 million and her single sales as 50 million. This is where your total of 230 million is coming from. Now, check out the information listed for Madonna under her album and singles discography. According to Warner Bros. Records as of earlier in 2005 Madonna has sold 200 million albums worldwide and has single sales of 75 million. That puts Madonna's total at 275 million. This information is all prior to Confessions On a Dance Floor and her single Hung Up which will only push her sales total even higher. These are the facts. Madonna's albums have not even been re-certified to reflect her higher sales in many cases. Music (2000) for instance was last certified as 2 X platinum in America two months after it release. It has now gone on to sell over 3 million copies in America. So if you want to post facts then ACTUALLY post the REAL facts.
