Pop princess, or should I say Queen?, Britney Spears is really back!The popstar surspass the mark of 219,000 (219k) album sales for the first day — Yes, You read that right — ‘Circus’ sold 219k copies only on December 2nd in the U.S.A.

The number is huge, and, is by far, the best sold album in the first day of 2008, Taylor Swift, who previously was holding the record, has driven her latest album ‘Fearless’ to 217k copies sold in the first day ending the week counting 592k copies sold, The Jonas Brothers were right behin selling with their latest album ‘A Little Bit Longer’ 200k copies in the first day ending the week with 505k copies sold.

Following the smashing success of the opening day sales, It’s expected that ‘Circus’ surspass the mark of 450k copies sold, and with potential to go even higher, through 550 – 600k copies sold.

The number of sales, 219k, is just 80% of total album sales on the first day by far.If ‘Circus’ gets to the top of Billboard Hot 200 Albums, it will be the 5th time Britney will be topping the list.

Britney’s previous album, ‘Blackout’ sold 290k on the opening week, and ‘Circus’ may go far of this number on the second day of sales.So you see what a little promotion can do, The well rated MTV’s documentary and the so buzzed about Good Morning America performance and birthday bash, as well as the official release of the album’s second single and the video premiere next Friday mixed with good professional reviews can do.

By the way, Britney will promote the album on Ellen DeGeneres show this Thursday.
