Actually, Mariah maintained her popularity in the States until 2001, because Butterfly and Rainbow were both very popular and successful albums. They both did over 10 million worldwide, and they both had two #1 singles. But I think I was wrong, Mariah isn't the biggest-selling female artist in the States. She surpassed Madonna with TEOM in 2005, but she is still slightly behind Barbara Streisand. Maybe she can take her over with E=MC2!
