Me: Hi Kris, did you try the Hainanese Chicken Rice from Singapore? Singapore miss u!!
Kris: No I didn't actually. The funny thing is that when you go to Asian countries, people think you want American food! And you don't, you want to try Asian food and they're like, "Here, try the steak!" I was there a month and a half ago and they were like "here's some sandwiches" and I wanted to eat some rice, man!

QUOTE(jlsmom2 @ Dec 18th 2009, 9:05 AM) Warning: Stupid Question Alert: How many cds need to be sold to equal Platinum? Gold? Thanks! : Gold - 500,000 copies sold Platinum - 1,000,000 copies sold Diamond - 10,000,000 copies sold That is in the US only. In other countries, like Germany or UK, 500,000 copies sold is already considered multi-platinum. The certification sales are based on the country's population; the US population being used as the standard. This post has been edited by sinister_guy: Dec 18th 2009, 12:20 PM --------------------

Thank you Everyone for the answer! WOW - 500,000 for Gold.
C'mon Kris - Gold! Can he do it? Over the long haul and touring? Yes, I believe he will do it.  --------------------

As for music videos, only 25,000 downloads for Gold, and 50,000 for Platinum. Hmmm....I wonder how many downloads does LLWD have until now?

No. Each countries standards are different, so the numbers aren't combined to determine how a song will be certified. So a song can sell 500,000 copies in the US, which would mean that it went gold in the US, and 500,000 in the UK, which would mean that it went platinum in the UK. --------------------

If the album continues to sell decently, it has a pretty good chance of hitting gold. It might take quite a while though. As for platinum, it will be quite tough. Jordin Sparks took 1 year to go platinum, so there is still a chance for Kris.

Well, I don't think it's normal - but it's her money so she can do whatever she wants with it. I hope that she's happy with it.

outside the top 50 this week again according to HDD. doesn't seem like he's benefiting much from the holiday season. at this rate, gold will be quite a struggle.
sales are up this week, so hopefully he increased as well (not by much though). btw, number 50 on HDD sold 33,500 copies this week. This post has been edited by phoenixxx: Dec 21st 2009, 6:04 PM --------------------

Yeah I don't think anyone expected him to climb back into the top 50 this week. Hopefully he sold more than last week, but we won't know until Wednesday.

What a shame if Kris does not reach Gold!  At this rate, it will take over a year to reach gold!Maybe once LLWD plays out and another song is released and his songs start getting more airplay, he will start making bigger weekly sales gains. IDK. I love this great CD. Just a shame it is not selling more. Don't understand.  --------------------

At this point people become fans of LLWD the song, not yet Kris the artist. --------------------

Wait im confused I thought HDD didn't release their final numbers until Tuesdays ? Isn't Billboard usually higher anyway? IMO any increase is better then no increase. --------------------
