Three CMA Award Show Appearing Idol Winners in BillBoard Top 200!
Once again there are no new numbers from Idol Chatter, but the latest BillBoard 200 chart is out, with the same three American Idol winners there -- all appearing on the CMA Awards tonight! This week the same order is in place as last week: Scotty McCreery (at #15 from #4 last week), Carrie Underwood (#20, up from #25 last week), and Kelly Clarkson (#160 from #145 last week). With Carrie hosting and performing on the CMA Awards tonight, I am sure her sales will have a nice jump and put her in front of Scotty's sales next week. Kelly will also be performing tonight, and Scotty is now announced to be a presenter. I do not have the actual sales numbers for Kelly's "Stronger" but Roughstock did have the numbers for Carrie and Scotty. "Christmas With Scotty McCreery" sold another 18K units to reach a total of 59K in two weeks, and "Blown Away" added 15K (up from 14K last week) to take its total up to 879K. Kelly Clarkson is a great pop singer, but I am still not sure why she is on a country award show tonight. Oh well, what do I know?
