The album of the same name had been projected to sell around 450,000 copies in its first week. However, B.S. is probably stuffing corn chips up her frappuccino ditch over the fact that Circus sold just over 504,000 to debut at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart this week.
Meanwhile, PETA has come out shrieking over Brit's use of elephants in the video for "Circus." They released a statment saying the following:
"Britney may think her life is a circus, but for the animals who are whipped, chained, and beaten to perform under the real big top, the cruelty is very real. She may be headed for a comeback, but when it comes to animals, she still can't get her act together."Damn, that's bitchy. Hire me, PETA!
