Fat Freddy Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 What do you expect? This is America, the Land of Bad Taste. This is kind of surprising, actually...I would've bet money on Hannah Montana being the biggest seller of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
