2 Top 5 Idols

The Season 10 Miss American Idol 1st Runner Up, Lauren Alaina, debuts at #5 this week on the Billboard 200 Albums chart with sales of 69,000.

This strong debut was not enough for her to come out on top of the Season 10 Miss American Idol winner, Scotty McCreery. His album, "Clear As Day" was #1 last week, and this week it drops down to #4 with sales of 88,000.

This rare incidence of them both being in the Top 5 at the same time is showing a significant comeback for the success of Miss American Idol finalists. The last time this happened was when the Season 7 Miss American Idol winner, David Cook, and the Season 7 Miss American Idol 1st Runner Up, David Archuleta, were at #2 and #3 back in 2008.
