My research into Michael Jackson's recording history as a solo artist, which may be inadequate, reveals that "Off The Wall", released July 16, 1980, made Jackson the first solo artist to have four singles from the same album peak in the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album was certified Platinum by the RIAA and has sold over 20 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time. It made Michael the youngest Platinum solo artist in the U.S. He was 22 years old, born Aug. 29, 1958. If I'm mistaken about the album/song or his age at the time, please correct me.
Jackie's album (EP), "Oh Holy Night" released Nov. 16, 2010 (30 years later), debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 with 239,000 copies sold in its first week and sold 142,000 copies in its second week. It remained in the top five for six weeks. The release made her the top-selling debut artist for 2010, and the youngest solo artist ever to debut in the top 10. The Guinness Book of World Records lists Evancho as "the youngest person to ever have a US Top 3 album". The album also debuted at #1 on the Classical Albums Chart and #2 on the Billboard Holiday Albums chart. It was the top-selling Christmas album in the world that year. As of December 10, 2010, the album was certified platinum by the RIAA with shipments in excess of a million copies in the US, making Jackie the youngest solo artist ever to go platinum -Wikipedia. Jackie was 10 years old, born April 9, 2000,

Jackie was 10 years old, born April 9, 2000, These are all the numbers that was posted at the time on a chart forum leaked from Soundscan: 1 2 JACKIE EVANCHO O HOLY NIGHT 239234 239234 5 EVANCHO*JACKIE O HOLY NIGHT 142,240 -41 239,234 377,000 3 EVANCHO*JACKIE O HOLY NIGHT 144,572 2 142,240 516,596 5 EVANCHO*JACKIE O HOLY NIGHT 148,646 3 144,572 659,861 4 EVANCHO*JACKIE O HOLY NIGHT 190,720 28 148,646 846,573 4 EVANCHO*JACKIE O HOLY NIGHT 151,215 -21 190,720 994,593 39 EVANCHO*JACKIE O HOLY NIGHT 16,420 -89 151,215 1,009,894 If you add the numbers on your own, you will see by the 6th week, OHN had sold a million copies in the US. The first numbers are the charting position on the B200. The last numbers give a count that doesnt include christian outlet sales. OHN also went platinum in Canada, selling in excess of 80,000+ copies. So combined sales of OHN worldwide are id say around 1.3million. DWM's combined sales are around 1m including sales of the DWMIC dvd/bluray/cd set and worldwide sales and btw she also went in the Top 5 of the British Albums Chart after going on BGT. Her combined sales are over the 3 million mark including sales of DWMIC which I count as a unit. Her PR has included that in her press releases the 3 million figure, thats basically all her Sony releases (1.3/1m/500k HC,200k SS).
