It's the first time in years that predictions have been so off, terribly off for that matter. It was reported last week that the Jonas Brothers would easily sell around 725,000 copies of their album A Little Bit Longer during the first week in release. Turns out that the result was nowhere near that number. In the end, the album will still massively debut at #1, but not quite as big as predicted. A Little Bit Longer ended up selling 510,000 during the week, yes, it's still more than what Mariah Carey, Madonna and Usher sold... but less than what Coldplay and Carrie Underwood managed to sell during week 1 with their newest albums. Either way, the album sold Gold in its first week, and it's an amazing accomplishment. Congrats to the Jonas Brothers.
