She is at 18 million albums... Thriller has sold over 110 million copies. And within a few years of its release in the 80's it sold 11 million a year consistently. It's a houshold staple. She'll be lucky to be included in the top 50 best selling albums. wtf? Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

@TAYLOR SWIFTS NUMBER 1 FAN!!! Thriller has 60 million confirmed sales in the Western world, but the RIAA and Soundscan have estimated global sales exeeding 110 million copies. It has sold so much it's off the raidar so I doubt anyone would beat the record. Congrats though, I do like her. Though she's nothing new.
