Let's make it short, and easy to read. Straight to the point! The sales prediction for the many releases of this week has been released, and the #1 spot is not going to be a debut. Susan Boyle will keep the spot for a second week with her album The Gift, predicted to sell another 300,000 copies this week!
Behind at #2 with the highest debut of the week comes America's Got Talent finalist Jackie Evancho. The ten year-old will sell around 270-290,000 copies of her album O Holy Night!
The next highest debut goes to Rihanna, whose album Loud is expected to end up selling between 180-190k copies this week.
Country group Rascal Flatts' latest album Nothing Like This is earmarked for between 170-180k - the same amount that is predicted for Keith Urban's Get Closer and Josh Groban's Illuminations.
Kid Rock returns with Born Free, his follow-up to the triple-platinum Rock N Roll Jesus, which is just behind that trio in the 160-170k range.
Finally, on to to the disappointing debuts:
Nelly's album 5.0 is predicted to sell between 55-60k while Lee DeWyze's album Live It Up is expected to sell 40-45k, which will be the debut album with the weakest first week sales of any previous Idol winner.
P!nk's Greatest Hits... So Far!!! album is predicted to sell the same amount as Lee DeWyze and finally, Norah Jones' compilation of duets, Featuring, will do 18-22k.
