TMZ has obtained the latest numbers for her new album, and it is tanking big time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The CD debuted three weeks ago, selling 296,873 copies. The second week, sales plunged 74% to 77,240 units. The typical second week drop is 40%.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TMZ has just obtained figures for third week sales, and it's not too early to declare Janet's latest effort a disaster. Sales dropped to 42,240 units, a 45% plunge from the second week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Janet's CD debuted at number two on the charts, dropped to number nine the second week and then went down to number 19 the third week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far, Janet's CD has sold 416,353 units. We're told Virgin Records stocked the stores with 1.2 million copies. We're guessing the 99&amp;cent; Only store is about to get a big shipment. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TMZ called a rep for Virgin, so far we have not received a response."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
