It says there that she sold over 20 million records worldwide. That's the only time I recall seeing mentioned a total number of her album sales. Is that info correct, what do you think? |

As an expert in this area...
 just kidding;but i've had several discussions here
and elsewhere with other fans obsessed by this question and we often found the figure 25 million albums.So,roughly i think it's correct,but not for total
records only albums.
Anyway,it had to be quoted as it's rare nowadays to find an article about Kate.

In 1994 it was five million. I somehow doubt she's sold another fifteen million during her hibernation.

No, I think this figure came from the TOTP performance of ASIL and it specifically said CD sales. Not ablum or record sales. Or it was just the number for UK.
But worldwide it had to be more even back then. It is 4 810 000 alone if you count the awards (without the SNEP awards) and this excludes the sales that
continued on and the sales in all the other countries her music was released. TKI has definetley sold more than 300 000 by now in the UK. I am not sure how
long the certifications are given out but it seems they stop after a period of time no matter how much more albums are sold.
