Do we know how many copies were actually sold in Canada ? last numbers were 38000 as of the 19th of dec, so If she was selling based on previous weeks I'd say it would be at 75000 but that is only an estimate based on position the album was at and previous weeks sales. :) I believe her studio albums have all gone platinum in Canada, and Hits went gold Thankful (#5 peak) 100,000+ Breakaway (#6 peak) 500,000+ My December (#2 peak) 100,000 All I ever wanted (#2 peak) 88,000+ Stronger (#4 peak) 91,300+ Hits (#15 peak) 60,600 Wrapped in Red (#5 peak) 72,800 From Ukmix: Greatest Hits rises up to #115 in week 58 selling less then 500 copies, total is now at 60,600 rounded, WIR drops down from #14 to #134 selling less then 400 copies, total is at 72,800 rounded and certified Platinum.

The Top-Earning American Idols 2013 Carrie Underwood has come quite far since winning American Idol in 2005—and it’s safe to say the show has made good on its titular promise. Underwood tops this year’s list of the highest-paid Idol alums, pulling in $31 million thanks to platinum-selling Blown Away, extensive touring and endorsement deals with the likes of Olay. Not only is that more than any Idol contestant, but it exceeds the annual earnings of last year’s judges Mariah Carey, Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban. All in all, Underwood has earned $83 million over the past five years, and she’s one of many acts continuing to profit from her exposure on the show. Kelly Clarkson ranks second with $7 million, banking the bulk of her bucks on the road. She’s followed by 2012 winner Phillip Phillips and 2009 runner-up Adam Lambert, who are tied for third with $5 million apiece. www.forbes.com/sites/zackomalleygreenburg/2014/01/14/top-earning-american-idols-2013/?utm_campaign=forbestwittersf&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social

That list really highlights just how little money is made from albums in comparison to touring. I kind of hate how Forbes' top earners lists always run from mid-year to mid-year. It cut off both the US leg of the Stronger tour (do they include worldwide tour revenue in this? It doesn't look like they do) and her time with Maroon 5's Honda Civic Tour. I would like to see how much she earned for all of 2013 but I doubt we'll ever see a stat for that.

Tonight, on Nashville. :) Kelly Clarkson Plays Herself on Tonight's "Nashville"; The Cast Sings Her Praises Jeremy Cowart/RCA RecordsKelly Clarkson has become friends with several cast members of ABC's Nashville in the past year, so it's only natural for her to guest star as herself on the show tonight. In her short scene, Kelly meets with Scarlett and Gunnar to see about recording a song they've written, but Hayden Panettiere wishes it was her character, Juliette, who was sharing the screen with the singing star. Hayden tells ABC News Radio, "I'm really bummed that I didn't get to do the scene with her. I was like, 'What? No! Pick me! Ooh, pick me! I want to act with her!' But, I can't wait to see it." Hayden and Kelly have gotten to know each other since they both live in Nashville these days. "She's just one of the nicest people you'll ever meet," Hayden says of Kelly. "She's really lively and fun and doesn't stop smiling, that girl." Charles Esten, who plays Deacon Claybourne, was there the day Kelly shot her scene. He's also got to watch one of Kelly's recording sessions thanks to a mutual friend. Says Charles, "It's kind of unbelievable, number one, the amount of talent she has, but, number two is just how cool she is. She's just the best. She's sweet, she's funny, and we're real lucky to have her." Last year, Kelly also guest-starred as herself on the CBS comedy The Crazy Ones, starring Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar. Nashville airs at 10 p.m. ET Wednesday night on ABC.

I just meant Carrie makes a lot of money and its even more impressive because a major chunk is coming only from the US. Imagine if she goes overseas more and becomes a household name.

I love how absolutely everyone that meets her says the exact same things about her.
I also just realized what an incredibly long wait this is going to be. Over the past two-plus years we've had 70 songs leak, three albums, country singles, a few features, acting, endless promo and high-profile appearances...and yet it's amazing how impatient I know I'm about to become.

Martina McBride Enlists Don Was for a “Dream Come True”January 15, 2014 — Leave a comment Soulful Classics Revealed on Track Listing for ‘Everlasting’ everlasting Martina McBride had a specific vision for ‘Everlasting’ (out March 4), a collection of iconic soul and R&B songs, and knew Grammy-winning producer Don Was had just the experience and insight to lead her on this journey. The legendary producer guided McBride through songs as diverse as Aretha Franklin’s “Do Right Woman, Do Right Man,” Elvis Presley’s “Suspicious Minds” and Van Morrison’s “Wild Night,” and yielded a new sound and a departure for the country icon and four-time CMA Female Vocalist of the Year. “I love soulful music and it just made sense to me to stretch a bit at this time and do something that fills my heart and allows me to explore a little bit,” said Martina on her upcoming album. “I have worked hard to choose some of the best and most loved classics, much like I did with ‘Timeless,’ and interpret them in a way that is faithful to the original, but still has my own artistic spin to make it mine.” “Working with Don was a dream come true,” continued Martina. “He is so musical and really helped me focus on how to do these songs in a way that not only features the vocal, but also connects this music with what I’ve done in the past in a really honest and organic way. Putting out new music is one of the most exciting things we can do as performers, and I can’t wait to take this music on tour.” ‘Everlasting’ will be released on McBride’s own Vinyl Records through Kobalt label services. Track Listing 1. Do Right Woman, Do Right Man/ Original Artist: Aretha Franklin 2. If You Don’t Know Me By Now/ Original Artist: Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes 3. Suspicious Minds/ Original Artist: Elvis Presley 4. Little Bit Of Rain/ Original Artist: Fred Neil 5. Bring It On Home To Me (duet with Gavin DeGraw)/ Original Artist: Sam Cooke 6. Come See About Me/ Original Artist: The Supremes 7. What Becomes Of The Brokenhearted/ Original Artist: Jimmy Ruffin 8. I’ve Been Loving You Too Long/ Original Artist: Otis Redding 9. Wild Night/ Original Artist: Van Morrison 10. In The Basement (duet with Kelly Clarkson)/ Original Artist: Etta James and Sugar Pie DeSanto11. My Babe/ Original Artist: Little Walter 12. To Know Him Is To Love Him/ Original Artist: The Teddy Bears martinamcbride.com/story/martina-mcbride-enlists-don-was-for-a-dream-come-true/

That Buzzfeed list is a steaming hot, pile-of-shit mess until the top ten, and even then only about half the songs are worthy of such placement.

And lest we forget, that Buzzfeed author actually forgot to include Breakaway until someone in the comments pointed it out. I appreciate his stan efforts but he's clearly new to town. Please, leave these things to the vets!

The blonde female just saw her soulmate making out with her best friend which is why she's probably not jumping up and down to be locked away with him, even for Mrs. Clarkson.

Yep; had a fairly lengthy feature at the very end of the show (some of the people, individually and in large groups, sang it to the cameras along with clips of the studio version). Only nine months too late.

7 Ways ‘American Idol’ Revolutionized TVMany people have already written off ‘American Idol’ as a past-its-prime reality TV corpse. Before its season 13 premiere, here’s a reminder of why that’s definitely not true. When it premiered in the summer of 2002, no one had ever heard of Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson, or Ryan Seacrest. And everyone had forgotten who Paula Abdul was. By the time Idol aired its season finale that September, 23 million people were tuning in to watch Kelly Clarkson launch her superstar career, Cowell was one of TV’s most valuable personalities, Seacrest was on his way to taking over media altogether, and summer finally had found itself some appointment TV viewing worth watching. Ever since American Bandstand debuted in the ’50s and especially after The Beatles stormed The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, television has played an integral part in catapulting music acts into stratospheric levels of success. But it wasn’t until Idol found Kelly Clarkson five decades later that television began creating those very acts. The instant commercial success of Kelly Clarkson, however, and the subsequent fast breakouts (though some have since fizzled) of Fantasia, Clay Aiken, Carrie Underwood, Daughtry, and more raised the bar for what TV talent competitions could accomplish. www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/01/14/7-ways-american-idol-revolutionized-tv.htmlKelly's Segment on E!

I thought she was supposed to be performing Fade Into You on Nashville last night?... Is she in some multi-episode arc or something?
