In celebration of the end of the eighth season of American Idol (is anyone else getting tired of it?) I decided to do a little research for you and give you a list of...
Top Three most successful Idol contestants based on album sales to date--
3. Clay Aiken--the only American Idol alum to already have a greatest hits album! It was released in March and has sold 3,400 copies, though his total is nearly 5,000,000.
2. Carrie Underwood--Will likely take over the #1 spot with the release of her next album total sales to date are over 9,600,000
1. Kelly Clarkson--The original American Idol! Yes, it helps that she has had the most time since winning, with four albums totalling over10,000,000 in total album sales.
Honorable Mention- Chris Daughtry is closing fast having sold over 4,400,000 copies of his debut album, new album due in July should move him past Clay.
FYI- Five other American Idol contestants have sold over a million albums...winners Ruben Studdard, Fantasia, David Cook, Jordin Sparks, and contestant Kellie Pickler.
