Quote

On an episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (NBC) on 10 August 2022, guest Madonna (USA, b. Madonna Ciccone) claimed that she had sold over 400 million records (albums and singles, including digital) during her career. Although precise sales figures are difficult to obtain and are often disputed, it is widely acknowledged that only The Beatles, Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson have conclusively sold more records worldwide than Madonna, with most estimates settling on a figure between 300 and 400 million.

Can you? The paragraph contradicts Madonna's claim, and they dont back up the statement with their own findings.

I celebrate the accomplish and title, I'm just pointing out the confusion in Guinness's claim. Oh well.

It's always estimate sale's, they only citing Madonna, she said that like 2 years ago, they obviously did they own research. And Madonna was around 350 millions for more than 20+ years.

FIGHT !

Diana Ross fans may have a valid gripe but figures don't lie.
I'm sure all the mp3 cd thingies from Russia n China are taken into consideration too.

There's a list somewhere of Abba songs that weren't singles.
