Ok, thanks! I wasn't trying to get snippy, as you said it is quite shocking. I looked on the Walmart website but couldn't find this chart...

If Leona had been signed to a label with a brain and had managment that were not utter morons her career wouldn't have nose dived.

Sycrap really are an utter bunch of tossers.

It's at #1 now, ahead of I Direction.

Of course, we don't know how many sales that means. But still looks good for now.

She has new managment now who seem to be doing a brilliant job so far, I am happy with the Christmas album and can't wait to get it.

The biggest supermarket chain in the US. That still doesn't give us any indication of what this chart means in actual sales. It just shows that Leona retains some presence in the US.

Click on the link again.

Not #1 in combined numbers, but heads the chart for the individual album. Just looks nice.

I would love to see Leona reclaim US success….

It annoys me that a super talented vocalist who isn't brazen, rude or sexualised is classed as boring. She seems sincere, shy and generally a nice person. Something that should be applauded not . On her tour she did dance, interact with the crowd and show artistry. Such a shame that she is branded as boring. And her song choices and promotion - well lets face it have been dreadful.

I feel that this album will recapture hearts and minds to her as an artist.

Ooooh! So happy for Leona, I wonder if One More Sleep is being played on the radio yet in the US?

I think it had a couple of spins today as a 'new track', so it's good it's getting out there while the stations switch up their playlists ready for Xmas music

Britney has 2 versions to be fair.

Clever idea from Cowell after Glassheart flopped.

I think we're all just amazed to see it so high there. Britney is being used as a yardstick because she is such a big star. It isn't meant to put her down.

Given Leona hasn't had radio play, or any real publicity compared to One Direction or Britney, and hasn't released anything in the US for 4 years. I don't think anyone is expecting miracles. Just pleased to see some recognition.

Glassheart didn't flop in the US because it wasn't released there.

I have Leona's first 3 albums but I doubt I'll be buying this one because I can't stand Christmas albums normally. So corny and cheesy. Although I'll definitely download her version of Ave Maria because (going by the preview) she sounds incredible on it.

Britney's I will definitely get simply because I buy everything she releases! Lol ok well almost everything. What I've heard from the new album so far sounds very good so I'm looking forward to it!

Anyway, I wish both Britney and Leona well with their new releases, whoever sells the most! lol.

I would be amazed if the Ave Maria track was available as a separately downloadable track from the album.

Oh that would be annoying if it's not! I thought all songs were available to download individually or download an album as a whole?

Britney wouldn't mind, she doesnt care about the leaks and is only (so far) doing 1 interview in the US for the whole album promo. She's not interested. Im sure if she heard about Leona or one direction, she'd just say 'cool! I love them'.

If she trolled around the whole of America promoting, of course she'd be higher.
