Yes, she did, I'm pretty sure this is the official chart but I might be wrong - I was last night

http://acharts.us/france_singles_top_100

She debuted @ #1 there, and has went 1-3-5-8.

No idea re sales - I'll do some digging!

You do realise you'll be on it a lot more now?. I got broadband in September 2006, and my net usage went through the roof!

I had broadband before but it was on AOL , when I switched to Virgin my broadband connection got cancelled so I was on AOL dialup for about one and a half months and that took some getting used to , lol

What do you mean? Even if it's out of the US charts that has no impact on the UK release.

its already charting here, sooner or later people are going to notice it. it may do really well on downloads but maybe not enough for no.1 and i feel by the time the physical comes out it may be too little too late. its just an observation.

has video been released to UK stations, is it on radio yet. if they delay these things then it will be fine.
