After watching her new album, ‘Endless Summer Vacation,’ make a major splash on the United Kingdom’s side of the pond, Pop diva Miley Cyrus is seeing the critically acclaimed LP repeat the feat in the United States.

Over 16 years into her career, Miley’s global takeover is nothing short of astounding – especially on American charts where her epic comeback single, ‘Flowers,’ was planted in history books for its explosive opening sales and streaming numbers.

The tune’s March 10-released parent project nabbed headlines for flying to the top of real-time Apple Music sales tallies of over 70 countries in less than 24 hours after its unveiling – a victory lap that led industry analysts to predict the 12-song set’s Stateside faring would boast up to 130,000 units shifted by the end of its inaugural tracking week.

Look inside to see how final reports stacked up against that sales forecast.
