HITS estimates: Kelly 17.1k, Carrie 12.4k

The post-Mothers' Day sales week was not very kind to artists as a whole, with only one album in HITS Daily Double's Top 50 building album sales chart seeing an increase. Naturally, the same held true for albums by Idol alums, witch downward chart movements to be had all around.

Holding down the fort was Kelly Clarkson, whose All I Ever Wanted dipped 29% to 17.1k, marking a four-spot drop to #19. Carrie Underwood was the only other alum to be represented in the estimates, as her Carnival Ride moved another 12.4k, down 36% sales-wise, and slid #27-35 on the chart side of things.

Final numbers courtesy of Billboard will hopefully be available once the dust settles from the hoopla surrounding Wednesday's finale.
