With all the US promo, alternatively she's not coming to the UK at all. Which is odd because if any market was going to like that kind of stuff it would be the UK.


For sure. America hasn't been into Christina since 2002 really.

I disagree:

Soundscan:

Back To Basics Christina Aguilera 342,608 #1 9/2/06

Ain't No Other Man was a big hit.   


Good for you - but I disagree.

Europe has been Christina's only reliable market since 2002. If you define a hit by a song crawling into the Top 20, then free falling, a 'hit' then she's done well. And your also easily pleased. Since Stripped, the only region that has shown any reliable sense of love has been Europe/UK. As proven by the very mediocre performance of NMT, which wasnt great but better than its dismal US performance.

So no, America isnt a reliable market for her and hasnt been for years.
