King of 2007
Filed under: Music Minute
Congratulations to Chris Daughtry - the biggest selling artist in the U.S. for 2007!
Yup, the American Idol alum's Daughtry sold 3.2 million copies this year, continuing a trend of domination by the talent competition.
Carrie Underwood also previously held the titles of U.S. sales champ.
Behind Daughtry this year was Akon, whose Konvicted sold 2.7 million and spawned many hit singles.
Disney star Miley Cyrus, surprisingly, was the biggest selling female artist of the year, selling 2.5 million copies of the latest Hannah Montana soundtrack.
She was followed closely by Fergie, who sold 2.4 million copies of her debut solo album. It should be noted, though, that The Dutchess was originally released in 2006, so Fergie's success in '07 is that much more noteworthy.
And, rounding out the list of the top selling albums of the year is another American Idol alum, Carrie Underwood, whose Some Hearts sold 2.3 million copies. Her album came out in '06 too!
The High School Musical 2 soundtrack barely made the cut!
FIRST!
first?????????//

Actually, Carrie's record came out in November 2005! get your shit straight.
Bah >_>
10th??? wheres west?
"Some Hearts" was released in 2005, you ass. Get your shit straight.
But with that, Carrie is even MORE successful than for what this fat fuck is giving her credit.

The tone of voice of the last three messages is very different. Did you even write them, Perez?

Where is his penis?
3.2 million, eh?
michael jackson sold 25 million of thriller albums 25 years ago, times have changed.
I couldnt stand this guy on AI and Im astounded by his success.
THAT guy is a douche and he makes douchey music!
Congrats Daughtry!
This is for the Billboard charts which charts from Nov. 2006- Nov. 2007.
For the calendar year of 2007, High School Musical 2 is the #1 album. We have 3 more weeks of sales in 2007.
15TH!!!!!!!!!!
Jews are no longer God's chosen people, gays are, so now I'm gay.
WOW. THE WORLD HAS GONE TO SHIT.
biggest selling? yes. biggest impact? even if you're just speaking in commercial terms, Daughtry's gotta be miles behind T-Pain - he was just on EVERYTHING last year, and it seemed like everything he touched made the charts. Didn't he either sing or appear on something like five songs which appeared in the top twenty simultaneously at one point?
I thought Perez hated Fergie, why has he been kissing her ass lately?
♥{kk}zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz◘◘
out of all the idolz I've ever
zeen, I luv him & Conztantine………….♥
♥{♥}zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz♥♥♥♥♥}
Daughtry and Elliott Yamin both sing like goats.
HE IS SO FUCKING HOT!! I WANT HIM TO FUCK ME IN MY ASS AND THEN CUM IN MY MOUTH!!
WOW– Simon Fuller must be so proud that all his payola worked for his 5'3" screamer. Good for him!
Dude - 2 more weeks of Soundscan information to go and HSM2 is ahead of him and Josh Groban's NOEL is going to jump him this coming week. PLEASE GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!!!
WOW! Simon Fuller must be so proud that his payola paid off for his 5'3" screamer. Good for him!!
Yea, too bad Chris Daughtry is an ASS HOLE in person.. He needs to learn how to treat people. And he didn't even win!!
he is sooooooooo fuggin sexy! wow…he needs to ditch that wedding ring and that little wife. he has such a hot gay vibe.
Re: guuti niqtuqtauli(praise the Lord) –
KEEP CHANTING…SOON THE WORLD WILL DISAPPEAR AND YOU WON'T HAVE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING. SEE? IT'S WORKING…YOU'RE ALREADY POSTING INAPPROPRIATE MESSAGES. SOON YOU WON'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR JUDGING PEOPLE…OH LOOK! YOU ALREADY DID THAT.
YOU'RE A SINNER TOO, YOU MORON.
GO SPREAD YOUR JUDGMENTAL NUTJOB STUFF ELSEWHERE.
Yeah—this is what im' talkin' bout–this guy is HOT HOT HOT—i want me some baldee.
Ya know, I kinda liked Daughtrey on AI. But his album is so boring and so unoriginal. He is just your average pop wanna be rock star.
I love him. He's worked his azz off this year touring small clubs.
Re: tg – no, Chris Daughtry is very well endowed! all you have to do is look at any picture of him out there
He's in the perfect position for me to demonstrate my "BACKWARDS COWGIRL" position, as seen on TALK SEX WITH SUE JOHANSON!"
GIDDYUP!
He's a good 8 inches, at least.
UHMMM….Carrie Underwood's "Some Hearts" came out November 2005! so for it to still make the list is a HUGE accomplishment. Congrats Carrie!!!
That guys a homo, and the music he makes sucks.
Well if you are turned on by a midget with a sock stuffed in his pants you must be sexually deprived. How sad.
i like the comment bout Michael jackson's thriller selling 25 million copies 25 years ago….it actually took the album 25 years to sell a total of a little more then that. He didnt sell 25 million albums in one year! lol
all 5 of those top 5 suck ass.
WTF happened to Kanye or Fiddy? They couldn't pop off 2.5 million since their September release?
HSM2 HAS SOLD 2,526,328 UNITS AND IT HAS ONLY BEEN OUT 4 MONTHS.
FACE IT BLACK PEOPLE (AND DUMBASS WIGGERS) YOUR RAP HIP HOP BULLSHIT IS ON IT'S WAY OUT. PEOPLE ARE BORED TO DEATH WITH TALENTLESS APEING OF IGNORANT GHETTO TRASH. EVEN CHRIS ROCK MAKES FUN OF YOU PEOPLE. HAHAHA.
Where's my CD? I sold 6,ooo copies, doesn't that count for anything?
Chris is GAY. He has a long standing love affair with fellow Idol Ace Young. Awe….
Carrie's CD came out in 2005, making it even more impressive for her to reach top 10.
I'd say 7 inches, cut and thick with big balls and huge loads. I'd hit it anyday.
god he is hot
Carrie's cd came out in 2005 fucktard.
omg, what white arrow made me have nasty thought onto his jeans. Perez, you bad!
Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot! …..oh yea, and he's HOT!
MARIO, you forgot to mention that Kelly Clarkson's album was the Best Selling album of 2005. last 3 years - all american idol graduates.
chris daughtry is a hot piece of ass.
Actually Rascal Flatts was the best selling artist in 2006 in all genres
Damn, now he'll never get into porn!
Re: singjaxb – PUHLEEZE, THAT FAT BITCH FROM RASCAL FLATTS IS A BIGGER QUEEN THAN PEREZ!!! I THINK HE USES JACKIE BEAT'S DESIGNER TO DO HIS SHIRTS. KISSES ALL AROUND THE TOWN, Leona
WITH A SPECIAL NOD TO justjak!
guuti niqtuqtauli(praise the Lord) jesus was just another queer who got butt fucked on the dinner table by 12 guys after too much wine!
What is that arrow pointing to? I don't see ANYTHING?!
Chris Daughtry is an unoriginal, boring poseur! When will people wake up and appreciate true musicianship and talent?????
WHOO HOO CHRIS IS THE BEST IDOL EVER HE SHOULD HAVE WON IDOL IS SO FIXED BUT WE WLL KNOW HE IS THE REAL AMERICAN IDOL! WE LOVE DAUGHTRY KEEP ON KEEPING ON CHRIS
ummm, sorry to tell u, but carrie's album came out in 2005, so its more noteworthy than fergie's, right?
It should also be noted that Daughtry's album ALSO came out in 2006!!!! And they are still trumping everyone. I'm so proud of him!
Chris is the consummate artist. He has everything in total sync. His ability to write and select material that compliments his vocal range is one of his strongest assets.
You know it baby. #1 2007. I think we have some of the original "parole patrol" down below hating on our Mr. Daughtry.
You know it. I think we have some original Parole Patrollers down yonder spilling some more of their hate and being all jelly.
Daughtry rocks!!! Congrats!!!
I thought that was Joey Lawrence - woooow (or however you spell it). Hi Mais!

What does anyone see in this guy?! He's not cute, he's unbelievably unoriginal, cliqued, he's an OK singer but should have never succeeded beyond a local bar.. Wake me up when his 15 minutes are over… hmm kay?
AKON sold that many CDs???? People have absolutely the worst taste in music (in the U.S., anyway.)
To the person who said that Chris is gay - you're wrong. I know him and trust me, he's a huge homophobe.
GOOD FOR HIM. I LIKE CHRIS. SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY DESERVES THE SALES. REMEMBER THAT SANJAYA GUY? PEOPLE LIKE THAT AND THAT "LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE" GUY? WHY DO WE MAKE THEM FAMOUS? CHRIS ACTUALLY HAS TALENT AND HE ROCKED OUT ON THAT SHOW. HE WENT HOME TOO SOON.
Re: Blanche Devereaux –
Then how come Justin Timberlake was #1 on the U.K charts at one point?? America is not the only country with an unusual attraction towards untalented "artists". Remeber the Spice Girls??
ID lick it -suck it -what a stallion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People can say what they will, but the numbers don't lie and that's what is bringing out the haters. Chris is giving the fans what they want–great shows, music and LOTS of love and appreciation, all of which contribute to him being King. I've been to 7 shows, met the man twice and he is personable, down-to-earth real, loving and friendly. Bear hugs of steel, too. I love him and I have great taste in music and the finer things in life. Chris is definitely all that so get over it and let me get back to my Daughtry party.
Maybe other artists should sit up and take notice, and, as a plus, their fans won't have to spend all their CD dollars on Counseling to rid themselves of all that hate. Maybe their fans will buy more CDs and everyone will be happy. Sounds like a good formula for everyone involved.
Chris D rocks and the world knows it and shows it. Yeah!!!
