Miley Cyrus achieved #1 with Wrecking Ball and #1 album with Bangerz.
Does anyone know how much each of them sold first week?

Check buzzjack sales usually out tomorrow or at the latest Tuesday
Single probably at 100k+
Bangerz - 30,759
Wrecking Ball - 107,362
Exactly. She got to number 1. Job done. Bit like Man utd winning 1-0 against a non league team. It's the result that counts.
Basically last week she outsold The Beatles, Take That, Lady Gaga and her dad
Her poor dad, he must be laughing all the way to the bank
For first week sales they are pretty abysmal though. It only really beat new releases, beating albums that have been out for a month isn't hard.
I wouldn't write it off yet. I am sure it will rebound by Single 3.
Because two #1 singles have given the album such impressive sales so far. I doubt its longevity is going to be any better or any more impressive if it's already dropping this quick down the top 10. You'd think Wrecking Ball dropping just one place to #2 in the midweeks would have kept the album in the top 5 for a few more weeks at least. I guess it could climb before Sunday.
Predicted to be 250/300k i think.
isn`t she performing on XF? it will shoot up again, i see it hovering around on the chart until at least Xmas, & with xmas sales i see it doing well overall
It will be long gone by Xmas.
I think she managed 275k, ninth biggest debut of the year. Disappointing, though. Two massive singles and that much press exposure should've garnered a better result.
Actually i don't see that as disappointing. Barely anyone is selling albums these days, plus the album has done a lot better than her last one. Hit singles doesn't result in huge albums sales at all. Robin Thicke being one example and plenty of others.
The difference is Robin Thicke doesn't sing pop music and isn't a big rapper. He was never going to sale anything close to what someone like Miley Cyrus would sell. 177k in his first week was GREAT for him. Hell, he sold over a hundred thousand more than 2 Chainz. Nobody saw that coming. Robin's biggest audience is still African-American women. Blurred Lines did nothing to change that. It was just a hot song.
The Miley numbers are pretty good. She sold 270k and was the biggest first week sales of any female this year. Not amazing, but good solid numbers.
