Beyonce Opens Wide - Debuts Big

Filed under: Music Minute > Beyonce

beyonce__opt1.jpg

Not too shabby, Sasha!

Beyonce's new double CD, I AmSasha Fierce, will be the #1 album by next week, says HITS Daily Double.

She's expected to sell between 500 and 550K total.

But, that's not good enough to match country sweetheart Taylor Swift's sales.

The country cutie sold 592k copies of her latest debut out of stores.

There's currently three way battle for next week's #2 spot.

It's still too close to call, but it will either be David Cook, Nickelback, or Taylor.

We hope Taylor beats the boys!

Either way, not too shabby for Beyowulf.

    COUNTRY MUSIC ALWAYS SELLS BIG BECAUSE REDNECKS ARE TOO STUPID TO KNOW HOW TO DOWNLOAD MUSIC!!!…OR USE A COMPUTER FOR THAT MATTER…



  10. 10

  11. 11

    Mediocre album



  12. 12

    Beyonce is this generation's Diana Ross! She is the #*&^ and will be making albums as long as she wants to. Her star will not fade anytime soon, go Beyonce! (my usual shameless plug, check out Georgie Is Outta Here Party In A Box! - everything you need to celebrate Bush leaving office)



  13. 13

    Beyonce is so fucking boring. Her inner fug has finally come out and is taking over her entire exterior.



  14. 14

    MMM… STILL WAITTING FOR CIRCUS DIC 2ND!!! BEYONCE ROCKS TOO!



  15. 15

    first single is crap! and she is starting to look like a tranny!



  16. 16

    like a monkey ! ! !



  17. 17

  19. 19

  20. 20

  21. 21

    Re: Beyonce Stan – Hi fellow stan
    AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
    Its about time you started talking about THE QUEEN BEE
    Bow down B****es She is back
    Perez get over her and stop hatin just appreciate
    and check the game that u playin
    With your whold Beyowulf comment
    It would kill u to not bash her at least once
    obviously ur comments arent effecting her sales
    Beyonce gives Britney (can't really sing by the way)
    a run for her money



  22. 22

    Wish you'd put some lotion on those ashen knees



  23. 23

    fuck beyonce, she's so fucking boring nowadays..
    again im utterly shocked by taylor's expectations,
    and come on, we all know why she started speaking about Joe fucking Jonas as soon as her album was about come out.. God, people in hollywood nowaydays are soo predictible! xx



  24. 24

    yeah PEREZ, your bitch friend Rihanna cant even get a #1 album, yet sell as many copies. Rihanna is a talentless bitch



  25. 25

    I love Beyonce stories!
    She's having a pretty good life and I'm glad she's enjoying it!
    She managed to find a man who wasn't already married, and all her success is due to her own talent - plus she seems really nice.
    Much better than listening to Britney whine or Xtina wonder who Lady Gaga is or Jessica Simpson talking about how Romo completes her, etc, etc, etc.



  26. 26

    i am beyonce-d out. taylor seems everywhere now, too. more thoughts at sizzling.wordpress.com



  27. 27

    get rid of that ridiculous thing on your hand



  28. 28

    Re: ShakeYourkitty – so fake!!! beyonce is the damn! love her too! But She is promoting a lot and brit hasn't even started! So lets see! next week brit brit is going to performe for the very first time since her terrible act at the vmas07!



  29. 29

    That shiz w/ JT on SNL last Saturday, lmfao!!!



  30. 30

    There is something seriously wrong if crappy Taylor Swift, who can't even sing, is going to beat Beyonce's numbers.

    Maybe the fact that she sold them for 3.99 an album on AMazon accounts for this.

    Go Beyonce David Cook and Nickelback! Kick Taylor=can'tsing-Swift to the curb.



  31. 31

    Re: YourFavoriteGirl * – bitch your neck is fat and your ass looks like a monkey…



  32. 32

    That talentless cad!!! Who in the hell is buying her s*#t?!?!?
    She still didn't beat ALICIA KEYS!!!!
    She never will!!!
    Her music is what hood rats listen too!!!
    ALICIA KEYS is what REAL talent is !!!!!!!!!!



  33. 33

    Can someone please ask this girl to keep her arms at her side or go get a good wax…no sorry, just keep her arms down. That pose is SO annoying!



  34. 34

    Re: acevedo85 – i am not arguing……Britney will eclipse all these wanna be diva's!!!!!!!!



  35. 35

    Hip Hop is thankfully dying a timely death.



  36. 36

    bad vadge pits anyone?



  37. 37

    This album is not up to par with "ring the alarm" but the fans will buy it anyway.

    Taylor's is da shit!



  38. 38

    Re: acevedo85
    I AGREE SHE GOT LAZY…..AND SHE'S NEVER LAZY



  39. 39

    double wide



  40. 40

    Here's an idea. Tell Beyonce and Kim Kardasian to sit on the US/Mexico border. Both their asses alone could block off the entire border problem. You don't need no stinkin fences. 2 big asses could solve this problem. Hey Barack, get on dat.



  41. 41

    Meh, I don't like Beyonce at all, and her song "If I were a boy" is stupid, lol It's like Ciaras "like a boy". z__Z
    I'm sick of hearing about her, not to mention the bitch ages horribly, she better hit that botox asap! And if she already is, then bitch is SOL, shit out of luck!



  42. 42

    Those are just predictions. She may still sale more. They predicted the same thing for Alicia Keys with As I AM and she sold about 700k first week!

    LETS GO GET'EM SASHA!



  43. 43

    Re: BatchStoleMyID

    U SOUND LIKE AN IDIOT!



  44. 44

    YEEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!
    THank u for posting Perez.

    LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE BEYONCE SHE ROCKS.



  45. 45

    I love how beyonce continues to do her thing…..she doesn't really address rumors because she is a positive person. It is so sad when people start hating on her for no reason. She works hard and deserves everything gets! I love that woman. She is a true talent. She can sing, dance, and is stepping her acting game up! Continue to do u Sasha. No matter what the haters say!



  46. 46

    Can you do a side by side pic of this one with Eva Mendes?



  47. 47

    Sasha Fierce - what a bunch of cringe-inducing sophomoric pap. What's wrong with her? Has her mom gone from mangling her wardrobe to mangling her career, too? Ugh.



  48. 48

    Re: phineinphilly – i thought ring the alarm was the worst song she ever did…..and i was at that orlando show when she busted her ass singing that shit…..sooooooo funny……..but she got up like a champ and acted like nothin happened….props



  49. 49

    Perez, seriously, stop calling Beyonce(or B) Beyowolf. That crap is so trifling. That's B for God's sake. She in no way, shape,or form deserves to be disrespected like you would Britney or Lydsay etc. You know darn well she's fabulous, and classy. Consider getting a little more mature, and find more witty ways to insult people.



  50. 50

    Her album rocks!



  51. 51

    She's trying to be like Rhianna. Did you see her SNL performance? She was really really trying to be like Rhianna.



  52. 52

    She stole "If I Were A Boy" from BC Jean. She didn't really write it. Seriously–google it. And check out BC Jean's version on her MySpace.



  53. 53

    eww beyonce no offense, but she is soo 3 years ago! this whole sasha fierce act is so.. overrated! great her third consectutive #1 album but.. either taylor or beyonce do it for me, i only like "if i were a boy" she sounded amazing but still not a fan:( sorry b, stop copying rihanna's image! lol



  54. 54

    just sayin', what's going on with the freddy kreuger gloves?



  55. 55

    How cum you PROMOTED downloading Britney Spears' new album but NEVER asked for people to do the same for Beyonce? People have been listening to her new album for the last 2 weeks!!! ohh but wait, you wouldn't want Britney to have the #1 spot. I wonder what message Brits people gave you that you have been so bitter… how much did Taylor Swift's agent and Riri'S people pay you Perez? Lady Gaga…ohh I won't even go there!



  56. 56

    I liked one of the songs I heard on SNL, but just one. What's up with the Freddy Kruger glove in this pic?



  57. 57

    she sings like a horse, she is horrible!
    sasha fierce??? LOL



  58. 58

    Of course the Queen was going to be #1!



  59. 59

    Hey this indie musican is taking notes….work it Mrs cousin Carter!!!



  60. 60

    her songs are so retarded. If I were a boy?! *sigh* and the album name…massive amounts of stupid.



  61. 61

    ive never been like her number one fan but i like her. and her new song if i were a boy is my SHIT!!



  62. 62

    THIS IS A LIE.

    BILLBOARD REPORTED THAT TAYLOR SWIFT, THE JONAS BROTHERS, AND AC/DC WOULD BE # 1 AFTER ONLY THEIR 2ND DAY OF RELEASE

    NOBODY IS REPORTING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS CHICK'S SALES.

    I THINK EITHER NICKELBACK OR DAVID COOK WILL BE #1



  63. 63

    Re: GeorgieIsOuttaHere Dot Com

    DO NOT INSULT DIANA ROSS LIKE THAT.

    DIANA ROSS IS AN ICONIC DIVA. THIS CHICK IS JUST SOME RAPPER'S "WIFE".



  64. 64

    what can i say noone can beat taylor swift, shes on the role. i think the break up with joe jonas just made her more popular!

    lovelovelove
    -M-



  65. 65

    you are so 2faced. on her last picture you called her beyowulf (which makes no sense). either you love it or you hate,no in between.
