Do you honestly believe Elliott Yamin's debut CD will outsell Katharine's? I highly doubt it because I truly believe Katharine always had a stronger following that Elliott! Hopefully, with an upcoming "American Idol" appearance, Kat will have a well-deserved boost in her sales!

I hope not!!! But I'm afraid it may. Elliot's CD is consistent with how people know him in AI. So there will be few confused or alienated fans who voted for him. Kat's CD is a bit radically different from her AI performances. She may have alienated those who liked her OTR performance and/or her performances with Bocelli.

If KISS FM in L.A. continues to spin it regularly then it could well. The USA Today reviewed it today and gave it two stars out of four. But they did say it was consistent with who he was on Idol which should help old out of touch fans re-embrace him. If he can pull off a couple of hit songs anything is possible, that is the reality of the music biz.

I think he could initially yes, meaning he might pass her in the first few months. But I think in the long run that Kat's album will outsell Elliott's.

Elliott has Chris and Taylor's fanbase backing him and will buy his CD. Sad to say Kat's fanbase is not large and does not have backing from other fanbases. Just don't understand the negativity towards Kat. So Kat has to gain new fans outside of the AI viewers.

I cannot fathom how all the other "Idols" (Chris, Taylor, Kellie and now possibly Elliott) can achieve a gold or platinum status on their CDs and Katharine's sales are struggling? Do you think this would have happened if Kat stuck closer to the genre of music she performed on "AI"?

His AI fans will buy his album in the first week of it's release, but Elliott needs people outside of his AI fan base buying his album, as that's what will give the album legs. If it's a good CD, and he receives proper promotion, his sales should stay consistent. So if Elliott outsells Kat in the long run, it would not mean he had a bigger following on AI...he may be gaining NEW fans, though. Will Elliott outsell Kat in the long run? Anything is possible. Will Elliott's first week sales be higher than Kat's? Hells no!

Chris', Taylor's, and Kellie's albums have been out for a while, especially Kellie's...add to that holiday sales and you get a certified gold album.
