Hulk Hogan Going Broke - Only Bought 3,000 Copies Of Brooke's Album


Brooke Hogan's new album debuted this past week. It sold 3,381 copies which was good enough for #144 on Billboard's Top 200 chart. I figure that Hulk bought 3,000 copies but that still leaves 381 people in the world who have some serious explaining to do. I would also like to say that perhaps continuing the chart all the way to #200 is kind of ridiculous. I think #200 is actually A Borat & Bruno Family Christmas and sold like 146 copies. When you get down to numbers like that the chart is meaningless because there are bands that can sell 1,000 albums a week just at their shows while touring and yet their name will never show up in a top 200.

Do you know how bad a record sucks if you can't sell more than 3,000 copies despite the fact you have a national television show. At least we know she will probably get dropped by her record label, have her show canceled and will soon be working as a waitress in The Waffle House searching for love with a guy who looks and acts just like her dad.

That is the GF in the pic, right?

Don't forget about the public libraries! Have you checked out the music section at your local library? They buy everything! How many libraries are there in the state of Florida? There has to be more than 381 (I would hope), maybe Hulk only bought 2500?

@ .robert, no that isn't his GF in the pic, that's Brooke.

I would like to see the list of names that were idiots enough to buy her album.

Ugh. Even if the music were fabulous, I would still refuse to own an album with that horrific
"artwork". Embarrassing.

teehee...you know she'll have a reality show as she works the graveyard shift at the waffle house...

but in fairness...they prob printed only 10, 000 units, so there prob aren't any copies out there in retail. most are probably comps.

A reality show? Is Bret Michaels doing a new Rock of Love? She could try out for that.

This story is the first mention I've heard of anyone buying a cd since 2008. Do they still make them? People try to sell them for money? It's 2009, for God's sake -- when will this end?

Judi said...

Who TF are the idiots who bought it?!

Please stop showing us that picture .. I beg of you. I have no idea what the story beneath is even about because I am so nauseous seeing that picture I can't bring myself to read for fear of what you will tell us!

I love her album only because of it's coverart and the fact that she's cross-eyed on it.

thank you, ent. *sarcasm*
as much as i love you, i've been busy the past few days.
it's now nearly 1:00 am, i've eaten too much for dinner, swam too long (swallowed too much salt water), and drank some REALLY bad vodka.
and you, my love, posted that picture again.
oh, i'm not going to complain too loudly, it could have been vern and his tongue again, or something even more hideous, but daddy rubbing baby girls ass, nope, that's done it for me.

i figure you're going to owe me at LEAST another 2 hugh lauries, 2 eddie izzards, and THREE tony bourdains to get me over this.
and THAT'S only if i don't ralph over my keyboard.
i love ya man, but, PLEASE!!!
:)
