From 3,000,000 in US to 600,000 in 1999-2001.
A mental breakdown put her in hospital.
A mental breakdown on TRL.
Movie to go along w/ Soundtrack; budget over $25 million for movie -- movie made less than $5 million.
$100 million 5 album contract w/ Virgin; after Glitter flopping she is pushed out the contract after 1 album for a $55 million payout.
Lead Single discounted to 49cents after not reaching Top 60, despite all her previous 8 Lead Singles reaching #1; peaked at #2 even w/ discount., Second single peaking in 80s, follow up singles not even charting
Soundtrack released on same day as 9/11.
Debuted and peaked at #7., sold so bad, stores shipped the album back to label or gave away for free
Also her label stopped promotion for other artists because their's budget was empty and end many of their artists' eras (Janet's 'All For You' an example) early
 Stores pushed away CD for free with singles
Virgin also had to lay off 3,000 workers  due to the severe money loss.

omg probably the biggest flop in history :rip: but what happened? 

Her ex husband and J Lo sabotaged the era :rip:

They stole the Firecraker sample for Loverboy and used it on I'm Real, thus Mimi could not release the original Loverboy

Tommy discounted Bootylicious to block Loverboy from #1

 

Tommy paid radios not to play her songs

I just watched her "trl breakdown" video, but what is so bad about it? That she showed up unannounced? All she did was give people ice cream, idgi

The album was originall titled All That Glitters and was given a 1998 release with lead single Heartbreaker

 

 

But then disputes with her label began, she released #1s, then half of the original tracks went onto Rainbow, Heartbreaker became Rainbow's lead

 

Then after Rainbow, she went back on the project and Glitter got released in 2001
