'Idol' BB 200: 'Carnival Ride' #34 (7/12/08)

Although sales have not been amazing, all Idol-related albums held up well on the Billboard Top 200 album chart for the week of July 12. Carrie Underwood's Carnival Ride was once again the #1 entry among Idol alums, as it moved an additional 14k copies and landed at #34. Carrie's Some Hearts, on the other hand, has hit a new milestone, as it spent its 137th week on the chart as it added another 7k copies to its colossal total of 6.5 million copies. That puts it as the fifth-longest running album on the chart since 1997. Full numbers and chart positions courtesy of tony over on Pulse are as follows:
