yeah yeah yeah, it´s 1 in germany. I knew it from the beginning.
MADONNA THE QUEEN IT IS <3
GERMANY WOW!!!
2 weeks # 1 in a row for a best of! amazing!
it’s her 11th # 1 album in germany, like UK!
Esta en el numero uno de Chile tambien. Latinoamerica con Madonna!
stop hating mariah-it’s not worth it….she has her fans and they like her-WHATEVER…MADONNA IS THE ONE AND ONLY….THE BIGGEST STAR IN THE WORLD
ok now in spanish
ya tengo mi disco doble de celebration y me facina.
algunos de sus exitos tienen versiones un pcoc diferentes a la original
como express yourself,like a prayer y 4 minutes
guys the queen is #1 in canada. love from argentina
Wow, seems like Barbra Streisand will debut number 1 and not Pramore!! And just to think Mariah’s team moved her album avoiding competition with Whitney and making sure she will defeat Barbra and Madonna, the 2 leading female number 1 albumers. Lambs might be mooore hysterical now. Funny is that Barbra fans claim she’s the biggest female music star ever – hehe- so naives, but let them enjoy this moment, I like Barbra too
JUST TELL ME,HATERS,WHO CAN REPLACE MADONNA? MADONNA IS IRREPLACEBLE,SHE IS THE ONE AND ONLY MADONNA.MADONNA’S SUPPORTERS GET TOGETHER,EXPRESS OURSELVES.HATERS, PLEASE RESPECT YOURSELFS AND OTHERS.
it’s not important anymore if mariah carey outsell our queen of universe,madonna.Madonna is already living legend,let’s hope she release better music under Live Nation. to all the haters,like it or not,she’s well known globally,hahaha
i’d say she’s doing well considering it is a compilation not a fresh material.I’d like to see how the #1 in US now is doing on charts all over the world comparing to madonna.
This Collection/ Collector’s CD has already sold more than 2 million copies worldwide. How long will it take Mariah to sell that kind of numbers in and out of USA now???? Few years probably.
It is great to see her MaD jesty doing so well after all these years.
Madonna is done….cooked….spoiled……rotten…..overrated…greedy…….and close to being washed up.
wow Georgy boy, u’ve been sucking cocks in bathrooms again eh? u jealous because Madonna fucks Jesus Luz and u would like to get ur share of him eh? oh these bitchy queers
What a lovely, telling, well adjusted and to the point response to the bitter haters. I couldn’t say it like that, but nevertheless you say it perfect.
word on the street si that MAdge is FURIOUS over her ranking this week. Anthing below Scarey Carey is an insult to her and major blow to her psychotic ego
wow, some really have a stinking mouth…stop eating ur own sh** dick, it harms the brain
And what is this “word on the street”? I seriously doubt we’d be privy to Madonna’s mindset on things like this unless we hear it directly from her. She might be furious or disappointed or indifferent but “word on the street” doesn’t indicate anything factual.
Madonna wouldn’t be caught dead in the street where you and Mariah are a part of.
Madonna did away with ego games long time ago, otherwise she couldn’t have survived all these years despite all the trash that the haters throw at her.
Ego game is something for Whitney, Mariah and MJ. You can even read it on their angry faces (see their pictures with their fake smiles. Madonna on the other hand has always been comfortable with herself, she expresses herself and shows all her moods in her music and on her face.
Madonna takes good and bad, mixes them up and turns them into a great new thing. She is above and beyond the haters.
The comment below was my response to you.
That’s a flat-out lie. All made up…BY YOU!!!
MADONNAS CD SUCKS ITS THAT SIMPLE….NOONE WANTS MORE REHASHED CRAP FOM THE PAST…SHE WAS BEAT IN SALES BY A SENIOR CITIZEN AND A MANIC DEPRESSIVE COW…EVEN CRACK IS WHACK WHITNEY WOULD HAVE BEAT HER THIS TIME AROUND. MADONNAS NEXT CD HAS TO BE A MASTERPIECE OR SHE WILL LOOSE ALL RESPECT AS A RELEVANT ARTIST.
old same shit from old haters shit.
You sad because your diva Mariah didn’t hit number 1?. Then why don’t u do something about it?, bt 100,000 copies yourself
She doesn’t need to prove shit to anyone. She already has a brilliant 27+ year career that anyone would find enviable. It’s not just her record sales, the records she’s shattered, or the millions in touring, it’s also about the impact on pop culture and culture in general. She’s paved the way for countless other women and she broke down barriers, very few artist can ever claim to achieve a fraction of what she has achieved and will continue to achieve. You can never count her out.
In its first week on the US charts Madonnas “Celebration” sold only 70,311 copies….debuted at #7…..thats CRAZY!
yes you piece of crap, we are happy for her
Piece of crap? hahahahaha, well said material bitch! Farto is what it is, a big fart lol
ok haters what did I say thats negative???????? think about it morons
dont listen to materialchick farto shes fat. and everyones knows Mikeys retarded.
retarded?
2+2= a hint please?!
Wow, materialchick, you are a serious loon and idiot. Farto was only telling us what the charts said. And you’re happy for Madonna that her CD isn’t doing well? You need to read before you spew your childish garbage.
Scott(aka farto aka mayny others) the CD is doing bad? number 1 in Europe, number 7 in the US, oh yes those are horrrrible numbers for a Compilation. Before you and ur shrews come to spit your poison you should go outside and do your homework about what it means to be selling bad and not. You amateur haters lol
madonna is us biggest star and export for 27years and keep going. please don’t be so short-sighted.respect yourself.actually, madonna is tough,under competition from c/lauper,j.jackson,w.houston,c dion,m carey and many more,but she survive and surpass everyone globally.people will remember her forever whether they like her or not.
#7 is very good for a collection that alot of people already have or own, & Im sure it will countinue to sell well during the holidays, and whats interesting is that the album still feels incomplete, even with the 30 songs on the album, it just shows Madonna can put out hit after hit, shes literally a hit factory, thats why she has no worries about her future, she could probably put out a greatest hits album every 5 years and crack the top 10,
The Striesand camp is propbably excited to see that they beat out new material from Mariah Carey. Shes strong as ever
LOL good for Babs for beating the promo machine that is Mariah and she did it at 67. Funny how Mariah was making fun of Madonna’s age back in the 90s and look at where she is now, not even 40 just yet and already faltering. Karma’s a bitch.
Cal, I agree with you and Roadwork.
I love people who break the tags and barriers including the age discrimination. Good work will prevail. Barbara is a survivor and has done her own thing for years. It is good to see that she is still doing well.
But Mariah is well on her way out regardless of the first week sales of her all new materials. Excuse me for calling it new, actually Mariah, has been producing the same stuff since she began her music career. With all that sit down boring ballads, it is no wonder why Mariah has trouble keeping her weight down. Since the mid 90’s Mariah has not produced any good record at all.
In the meantime, I am glad that despite the late promotion, differentiated and chaotic release date, late video release, this CD set is doing great everywhere, including the countries where having a Madonna CD is considered to be against their laws.
The haters are just jealous about Madonna. Luckily we are used to it. Somehow, Madonna and us manage to have the last laugh. This collection/ collectors CD is doing just as great as Madonna’s first album which went to top 10, became a classic dance album and ultimately sold millions worldwide, including the USA.
“Everybody come on dance and sing, get up and do your thing”.
I am glad you are celebrating her maDjesty with us.
being a hardcore fan i sadly gotta say i couldnt care less about this greatest hits collection.
ok its got 2 new songs and im totally fond of revolver. its a sick tune.lol… but its songs i heard trillions of times!!
but im more interested in the direction shes going to take from here.
madonna herself has hinted her next album is going to be her best. and something is telling me she aint going to hook up with neither timbaland/timberlake/pharell or oakfield. dont either think she will go back in the studio with price.
im soooo excited about what shes going to do musically next.
ya reckon she will duet with lady gaga?? hope not. lol
You’re so right, loverboi…about the CD and her exciting future. She’s not going to put any energy into her last days with Warner Bros. when she has a huge future with Live Nation. I do, however, think she should duet with Lady Gaga. They’re both awesome in their own way.
As the numbers, begin to come in. This collection will be number one in many places and top 10 in others. European market where she is has already reached number 1, is at least three times bigger than the US market. She will also be number one in many Important Asian and South American countries.
If that is not a sign of her maDjesty being the queen of universe, I don’t know what is.
Madonna rules everywhere, even in the good old USA, where after 27 years in the music business she still manages to crack the top 10 with collection of mostly previously released materials.
hi, in japan is #3 with cd2, and #22 with cd1, debut search http://www.planet-chart.jp, in america shure go up, live the queen, love from argentina
This CD set is a collection of many songs that have been sold the world over from the albums that have made Madonna into the bestselling female recording artist of all time. It also includes two fantastic club songs.
Considering the fact that it is not an album of all newly recorded material as well as the fact that the original albums are still selling well all over the world, this ultimate collection CD set, is doing fantastically well everywhere.
Another thing about this album is the fact that it is a collector’s item for fans as well as non fans who have liked some of Madonna songs from different albums and couldn’t decide which one to buy yet. Now they can buy this album, which covers most of Madonna’s three decades as a musical giant without making the original albums obsolete. It is also something that future generations who want to look back and get to know Madonna’s great and undisputed contribution to music, video and culture in general.
This Collection/ collectors album is and will continue to do very well everywhere for years to come. It is a great gift idea too. If you want to please someone close to you or someone as far as north Korea and Iran, just give them or send them this CD. She is the only music artist who can release a collection of this magnitude. Look at MJ’s collections, most of his hits were with his brothers, and he only had one landmark album. All of Madonna albums have been landmark albums without any exception. Madonna dared to express herself, dared to step out of the boundaries and this collection is a proof of that. MJ had Billie Jean and he performed it/ milked it the same way year after year after year. While MJ had at least Billie Jean, Mariah and Whitney have no landmark song or album at all. They sing the same kind of boring choir tunes year after year after year. I mean how much cry me a sea can one take from them?
Has anybody heard or does anyone care to remember the last Mariah hit??????? As far as I am concerned, Mariah could have a new number 1 every day thanks to her friends in the radio playlist networks but she still will not be Madonna, not even close. Celebration as well as other Madonna club number ones are being played right now as I am typing in so many places around the world. Mariah lacks the creativity that is needed to make a choir singer into an international Icon like Madonna.
So let’s join the party and hail her maDjesty Queen of Universe Madonna.
well put, Khosrow.
Hmmm…I’m sorry what were you saying?
I kinda lost interest after the first sentence.
Geez….
yeah kho guy can be so overwhelming at times-lol
Skip my post if you want. Judging from your posts, you don’t strike me as someone who reads anything beyond the second sentence. You probably listen to music in the same manner.
We find it okay that you and the other haters never get what Madonna is all about. You guys are just not in her league. So go back and enjoy yet another cry me a river album by Mariah. Glitter and short mini dresses do not make the choir lady into an International Cultural ICON.
Mariah can scream all she wants, but she will never be Madonna(Cultural Queen of Universe)
Great post.
THANK YOU GUY OSEARY.
It’s funny how these haters come to this site to emit a strong foul odor. Must be Mariah fans who cannot find any placebo for their bitterness about haven’t got the Hot Spot. But it’s hilarious to feel their desperate attempts to try to direct their disappointment towards a Lady that is still relevant in many ways they will never understand or give credit to.
Da da da da da…
This is such an incredible response. Surely this success will bring us Volume 2 or a deluxe edition…

Only 70k? Hard Candy sold 280k in 1st week. It’s not good news! I hope it will sell more then 1st week later!
Oh come on, people just don’t care much about Greatest Hits like before when they used to sell dozens of millions.It works unless u have just passed away or something like that. However, it s doing well worldwide
Yes, compare last year’s sales to this year’s. The game has changed. Even the #1 album is well below 280k. Remember GHV2 also debuted at #7 and went on to sell more than 7 million. GH’s are great sellers in the long run, but bring in high numbers at first, especially in the US.
*but don’t bring in
What number did she debut in America?
she’s at #9 now, but the Billboard charts aren’t final yet
It also debuts in Poland on #3 (platinum certification)!
in GERMANY second week at number 1 !
Well, where the biggest countries in Germany, Britain, France and Italy go, the rest usually follow also not far behind.
She has admirers all over Europe. Remember the reception she got during her tour in Scandinavia.
Go Madonna, go Europe.
