Heidi Montag’s Album isn’t Selling Worth a Damn

Heidi Montag’s debut album may have set a record — just not a good one.

In its first week of release, The Hills star’s album, Superficial, has sold less than 1,000 copies, according to Nielsen Soundscan.

In fact, industry sources tell UsMagazine.com that the album has sold only 658 downloads to date.

This is likely upsetting news for the reality star, who told Entertainment Weekly last week that she went broke making Superficial but thought that “within the first week, we will definitely make our money back.”

She told EW, “I put every dollar I have into this. I’ve spent over $1 million, almost $2 million, on this album. It’s cost as much or more than a Britney Spears album because I wanted it to be that quality… The songs will make an impact in pop history.”

Heidi Montag Not Kidnapped

On Wednesday afternoon (January 13), police arrived at “Hills” stars Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt’s home after receiving a call about an attempted kidnapping. TMZ initially reported that a 911 call was placed by a neighbor who said that someone was trying to kidnap Montag.

According to reports, a man who allegedly works for Pratt had been arrested after police stormed the house. The suspect has now been released and Montag said in a statement to People magazine that the whole incident was a misunderstanding. TMZ added that no crime had been committed and that the man who had been briefly detained by authorities did eventually make his way back into the Pratts’ residence.

According to Montag, she was making her way into her home and the sight of her face covered with a scarf prompted a neighbor to call 911 thinking she was in danger. The misunderstanding was quickly cleared up.

“We’re grateful this was only a false alarm and I just had my pink Hermès scarf over me,” Montag told People. “A neighbor was concerned and called the police. We’re thankful to the LAPD for their response and making sure we were safe.”
