Considering Kelly is not very close to 6 million (she's sold 5,560,086) and she's not moving many CDs at a time now, I think she might not get certified anytime soon. I would have liked it if they'd jumped the gun with Breakaway as they did with TEOM and certified it Grammy time, but 5.5 is not bad itself.

I would hardly call a 4% increase in sales justification to 6x tag it lol. I am in no way downplaying that, after fricken 102 weeks that is AMAZING but not 6x platinum. If it makes you feel better Mariah won't get it either

well look at it this way, thankful ended its run at about 2.1m and now stands at around 2.5m(selling 400,000 units in two years). If Thankful can do that i have no doubts that Breakaway will too.
Its only a matter of time before Breakaway crosses the 6m mark. (even if it does take a year or two haha.) |

Quote: True, but if we see Breakaway pass 6m too soon next year it will mean people aren't buying her new CD :X So its a double edged sword for next year...yah maybe 2 years from now, that would be coo |

I think RCA jumped the gun with that press release or else the RIAA is super slow to update their own database. They still show the latest certification for Breakaway being 5x.
www.riaa.com/gp/database/default.asp That being said, if RCA is putting out press releases like that, they probably know the actual shipping numbers and it may have already shipped 6m and maybe the RIAA hasn't done whatever they need to do to process the certification. That's just my guess though. |
