Justin Bieber To Outsell Madonna For Years Biggest Debut

America has "Bieber Fever" and Justin Bieber might just end up with the year's best selling album.


According to Billboard, the "Boyfriend" singer's album is not only set for a chart-topping debut next week, his album could sell as much as 500,000 copies by week's end.

If it happens, Justin Bieber will outsell Madonna, who holds the record for this year's top debut with 359,000 copies of "MDNA" sold in March. He will still fall short of Adele, whose "21" album sold 730,000 copies in February. That album was released in 2011 though.

This will also be Justin Bieber's fourth chart-topping effort following "My World 2.0," "Never Say Never: The Remixes" and "Under The Mistletoe." The latter was a Holiday album.

Projections from trusted sources say "Believe" will close the week somewhere between 400,000 and 500,000 copies sold.

Final numbers will be revealed next Wednesday, June 27.
