It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas on the Billboard 200 as Michael Buble’s “Christmas” is expected to surge to sales of up to 275,000 copies, which would boost the title up a spot to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
That means “Christmas,” in its fifth week on the chart, could top a raft of new titles from superstars, including Nickelback’s “Here and Now,” pegged to come in at No. 2 and possible Buble spoiler, Rihanna’s “Talk That Talk” and Daughtry’s “Break the Spell.”
Likely to drop to No. 3 is this week’s chart topper, Drake’s “Take Care,” which will still possibly top 200,000 in sales. Rihanna’s “Talk” is on track to come in at No. 4, while “Break the Spell” will probably come in at No. 5, according to Hits Daily Double.
Mary J. Blige’s “My Life ll...The Journey Continues (Act 1)” is poised to debut at No. 6 with sales of up to 140,000.
Adele’s “21” drops to No. 7, its lowest spot since its February debut, although it still tops 100,000 in sales.
Nickelodeon stars Big Time Rush will debut at No. 8 or at No. 9, depending upon if it can pass Justin Bieber’s “Under the Mistletoe.” Coming in at No. 10 will likely be Taylor Swift’s live CD/DVD, “Speak Now World Tour Live.”

Rihanna Navy
November 26, 2011 at 5:32PM EST Reply to CommentI was hoping Rihanna could have gotten her first number 1 album...but in the long run she'll pull another 6-7 million worldwide just like her last album. So I guess it's no biggie.
Chante Yeah, no number one album "again". It just shows just because you have a catchy techno song at the top, it doesn't necessarily mean people want to buy a full album of garbage music.

November 26, 2011 at 5:44PM EST Reply to CommentI am so in love with all of the songs on Adele's 21! I haven't liked all of the songs on one cd since Dave Matthews Band's Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King!

November 28, 2011 at 1:15PM EST Reply to CommentI'll be more interested to see where Lady Gaga shows up on the chart this week. "A Very Gaga Christmas" has been selling strong since debuting mid last week. BTW: The Remixes was also released last week...and both probably lifted the sales of Born This Way.
