Lets hope the Andre massive don't come back out to the stores LOL
Unofficial postings suggest that Britney has sold 5,000 more than Peter Andre in the 1st day of sales (25,000 to Andre's 20,000) she is outselling Kyile it seems by 2:1 at this moment.
Either way Busted only sold 30,000 to go #1 and Britney will easily beat that! :D
Psh, Busted! All their #1s are released in easy weeks, and the next week's #2 sells more, unless they are #2... (which was Girls Aloud in the 2 previous cases) ;)

Britney way ahead of Kylie in race for top spot
Britney Spears is trouncing Kylie Minogue in the race for this week's number one.
She is on course to top the charts with Toxic and is outselling Kylie's Red Blooded Woman by two to one.
The Aussie pop princess may have to settle for number five, according to early sales figures.
Toxic is 5,000 copies ahead of Peter Andre's Mysterious Girl and looks set to sell more than 100,000 copies by the weekend.
The figures show Andre is currently at number two, followed by dance record Cha Cha Slide by DJ Casper. George Michael's new single Amazing and Kylie's Red Blooded Woman are neck-and-neck for fourth place.
Toxic would be Britney's first number one in nearly four years. She last topped the chart in May 2000 with Oops!... I Did It Again. Her victory will be all the sweeter because Kylie, 35, reportedly took a swipe at the 22-year-old's raunchy videos at the weekend.
"I'm no prude. But I'm not going to those lengths," she said. "I've always been on the right side of the line."
Gennaro Castaldo, spokesman for music retailer HMV, said: "Britney has been losing her way a little in recent years, personally as well as musically. But Toxic is a real return to form and there is a great buzz around the record.
"It should give her the kind of momentum to challenge Beyonce and Christina once again for the crown of world's number one pop diva."
Thumbs up to Britney for finally putting a positive spin on the past year or so!
