Anything Adele can do Christina can do better

instead of flopped you should've put wilted.

Though a stellar album, the lack of live performances to push it have raised many an eyebrow, as too have the lack of magazine covers, radio interviews and other promo vehicles. All factors which contribute to the project’s first week sales.

According to the ever-reliable Hits Daily Double, ‘Lotus’ will open at #7 on the Billboard 200 with sales of…

73,408

There’s little spin that can take away from the fact that the figure represents the lowest debut numbers from Xtina’s solid-selling catalogue. Indeed, the figure is even trounced by the 110,000 opening of 2010′s criminally underrated ‘Bionic’ album.

Still, what the latter didn’t have was a hit – something ‘Lotus’ seems to be strutting towards with its second offering ‘Just A Fool (ft. Blake Shelton)’. For, having already shown its potential on iTunes upon initial release of the album, the song rocketed into the top 20 of the digital tally again last night following Christina and Blake’s live showing on The Voice. ‘Lotus’ climbed two spots to #14 too following the performance too.

While everyone loves a great comeback story, the reality is that it often takes time to rebuild a brand. Indeed, one needn’t look further than Aguilera’s rival and apt comparator Mariah Carey.

Like ‘Bionic’, 2001′s ‘Glitter’ was certified Triple Tin Foil, while 2002′s intended “comeback” ‘Charmbracelet’ didn’t fare much better. It wasn’t until 2005′s ‘Emancipation Of Mimi’ that Mariah’s commercial viability was restored.

Looking at Christina’s current predicament, we see a similar “slowly, but surely” climb. What we are sure of, though, is that she will have her “moment” again – be it this “era”, next, or somewhere down the line. Gifts like hers are too rare a find.

Keeps Getting Better must have jinxed her success :p

Hopefully she'll release Let There Be Love (seeing as it's the obvious single) and promote it like there's no tomorrow. Maybe that'll give her better sales. :D

hopefully

seen as shes not on the Voice anymore, she has no excuse to not get in the studio and make an amazing new album for late 2013 early 2014. Another 'Stripped' please christina D;

oh wait yeah she does ..lotus :/

well maybe late 2014/early 2015 instead ;)

She'll probably be back for S5 which is expected to be next fall more than likely.

She and Blake sang Just A Fool on The Voice US. It's a good song and the song made a blip on the iTunes US overall chart. Wasn't number one but it was high
