I saw reports that said that Madonna was at 500 million album sold. So I can figure out she's at 500 million if I fallow your logic. I also saw an article about Elvis being the best selling artist in history with 800 million. Come on, Jackson is far from a billion, his claimed sales are 275 million (proved by charts around the world) impossible he sold 725 million other copies that are hide somewhere. 

Beatles - 2,303,500,000 according to RIAA and Emi so it's not impossible Billboard and MJ's own website also support my claim ... But of coarse you saw some "reports" ... reports with no receipts ...

Are you kidding? Nobody has sold 250 million records worldwide from 2000 to 2014 let alone 2007 to 2014. Do you have receipts? :lmao:

All the album sales after his death, the Cirque du Soleil tour albums, the two post humous albums. Greatest hits, it could very well be along the lines of 800 million at the moment. As I said, I only know that in 2007 he got a guinness record for most sold records (that included his WHOLE discography including single releases, etc) in the world

Just left to claim and no proof. The only proof we have is that Michael Jackson himself admitted he bleached his skin due to his vlitigo. And either way, he was black during the Thriller era, the period when we he was most exposed worldwide. If he truly felt uncomfortable about being black and wanted to be white instead, he wouldn't have bleached his skin after that era (in which he first started contracting the disease)

There was proof by the coroners who made an autopsy of his body after his death that he DID have vitiligo. CASE CLOSED

Yes because MJ knew the future and how Thriller would turn out. I don't know how you have in your  mind but MJ was a very unstable personality as well. I'd call him a genious and these people see things different and are evry unstable.

lol yes

 

it was 750 Million records sold in total back in 2007...so 7 years later it might well be around 1 billion

 

impossible. beatles and elvis had sold more than him and they are not even at 1 billion

People claim Elvis sales up to 1.5 billion WW and whether that's true or not I don't know and I don't care and you guessing Michael's WW sales doesn't really support your argument but I'm guessing you're one of those LM's that says 1.7 million for ARTPOP despite 2.5 million according to RIAA reports. What you believe has nothing to do with me, POINT is that your argument doesn't make him less of a Legend ...

This Wikipedia article sums it up pretty well (believe it or not). It shows the claimed sales and then the total available certified sales. For MJ the claimed sales range from 300 to 400 million sales with many other websites claiming such numbers as 1 billion sales, but the total available sales are 172.6 million records sold, which is in third after The Beatles (259.7 million) and Elvis Presley (207.7 million)

I don't think there is a point on these discussions though. Why don't we just share our love about him insted of fighting on how he ended uo white from black.

Still Vlitigo is a fact. This is why he bleached his skin. Wanting to be white is a claim (a song called Black or White comes to mind that Jackson made that can debunk this theory).

Yes, MJ remains a mystery and this only adds to his legacy.

 

Gaga is also very enigmatic and actually Gaga is very similar to MJ as an artists, much nore thsan she is to Madonna.

The first and greatest object of my stanning. To this day, all I need to do is rewatch his dancing on the Dangerous tour and I can become excited about life and the world again. The first true megastar of pop. You can't comprehend how famous he was, and how good he was at being famous. Talented in every way.
