But the album sales are more than 100 million albums, because at the end you have to add her greatest hits + compilation albums + her remix albums, add them and she sold more than 100 million albums worldwide QUEEN

84M includes everything. Sorry but she never actually sold 100M. Her albums shipped 100M sure though.

Quote

'Baby One More Time' (1999) 25 million
'Oops!...I Did It Again' (2000) 22 million
'Britney' (2001) 11 million
'In The Zone' (2003) 8 million
'Greatest Hits: My Prerogative' (2004) 7 million
'B in the Mix: The Remixes' (2005) 0,5 million
'Blackout' (2007) 2,5 million
'Circus' (2008) 4 million
'The Singles Collection' (2009) 800.000 million
'Femme Fatale' (2011) 1,9 million
'B in the Mix: The Remixes Vol. 2' (2011) 0,1 million
'Britney Jean' (2013) 600.000

Anything missing?

Yes you are correct, but the 100 million albums are included compilation albums like example 'the essential Britney Spears'  or best of Britney Spears vol 1,2,or 3 ect.. 

So if you add " + other compilation albums" to that list, her Total sales are more than 100 million albums worldwide.. 

And we can count them because it's all Britney Spears... 

There was a thread here once witch told how much those other compilation albums sold, cant find it no more

Mediatraffic recently re-estimated all of her albums. They went from putting BOMT from to 21.5M to 25M and claimed the 30M figure was never true. It was stated by a British newspapers a long time ago. I guess they meant 30M shipments.

The 25M for Oops is inflated. It's actually at 22M.

I doubt the remaining compilations you mentioned put her at 100M though. Perhaps 1 or 2 more millions.

A place that can't be updated sales for years and years and years. (Mediatraffic) 

Lmao. 

And a place that very few countries included.

One of the reasons so scarce headed?

Wikipedia is not reliable tho

[Lutz]

I remember seeing a page saying that BOMT sold 30-33 millions with updated numbers.Link was posted on Twitter, I guess, I couldn't remember yet I couldn't find.

In their latest report, they added more countries and made estimates for the rest so it's pretty accurate. 84M is amazing & realistic, 100M is just a far-fetched figure.

Well i think your source is wrong, because if you search for this all sites has the same sales numbers except yours 

Check this out 

http://www.statisticbrain.com/britney-spears-career-statistics/

90+ million (without BJ, glory, greatest hits, best off and compilation albums) so i guess if you add them 100 million is verry realistic, AND Britney herself said it, mtv said it, billboard said it, rolling stone said it, they all confirmed it...

Those sales look very inflated, especially In the Zone and Britney.

I found a good source "chartsinfrance" which are claiming pretty much the same as Mediatraffic. They have broken down the sales wonderfully and they even have the full chart runs. They put In the Zone at 8M and Britney at 11M as well.

Since long before Britney album was passing 15-16 m. and itz album 11-12.

But you're obsessed with mediatraffic.  They are not updated. And not too global. 

You're too very extinguished.

Godlory I posted a source other than Mediatraffic!! That's already 2.

They're using all certifications available to calculate their totals and make estimates for the rest of the world. It doesn't get more accurate than that. How does ITZ jump from 8M to 12M? They can't haved missed 4M surely?
