underperforming, but maybe flop means different to you, to be it means there album major failed and hardly anybody knew they had another era like Duffy and Eliza

It went #1 but it was her lowest first week sales to date :shrug:

Nailed it. We don't support longevity.

yeah true, but I think that's more to do with sales in general at the moment. Exceptions aside, it sold pretty much the same/a bit more as other albums which went to #1

Foxes is already there really isn't she?

It's just the music industry isn't it. Fickle. And women especially have a harder time because there is more of an emphasis on their appearance than men, so getting older, and maturer with age, not wanting to be a sex object etc. will all be factors. And the UK industry doesn't have the wealth of the US market to continually push established artists so they're pretty much left to their own devices after they've had their peak.

looking at the sales, she was lucky she released when she did, the week before she'd have been blocked and the week after https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_i...ber-one_albums

Whilst she's still in her Body Talk era I refuse to accept her floppage

Cheryl is joint with Jess Glynne with having the most number ones by a British Female

reece(: 29-12-2015 05:06 PM
I think two #1s make up for a flop 3rd in the same era :joker:

Shall we talk about Tulisa's latest era not even picking up? :fan:

Pretty much all of her #1 came from Simon pimping her on his shows :hehe:
