The numbers are in and Mimi's new album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, not only missed the #1 spot but was edged out of the #2 spot by the legendary Barbra Streisand (Love is the Answer with 176,663 copies). According to HITS Daily Double, the singer's 12th studio album lands at #3 on the Billboard 200 with 172,742 copies. This comes as a shock to most fans especially considering the recent chart success of Carey's first official single, "Obsessed" and the heavy media blitz that was orchestrated to promote the album's release. Paramore clinches the #1 spot with 184,547 copies of their new album "Brand New Eyes."

So the pop diva supposedly moved her album to avoid Whitney Houston's release only to be bested by Paramore and Barbra Streisand? This is Mariah's worst first week since 2002's Charmbracelet. Despite Mariah's first week sales, plans for a remix album of Memoirs are still on track. Although details remain scant, it is rumored that Trey Songz will be featured on the remix to "Inseparable" and that the remix album will include two songs featuring collaborations with Timbaland and Jermaine Dupri that didn't make the final cut for Memoirs.
