What cut of royalties do Justin & Christina get?

Question

Just wondering when they say Christina Aguilera's latest album has sold nearly 3 million copies, how much does that mean SHE has pocketed; does she get a certain amount for each and every album sold? Just curious...

You have to be kidding?! Serious? A friend told me Xtina probably gets $1-2 per album, as she's established now. Good good, that means she only made $300,000 from album sales, and Justin nearly $500,000. Thought they got way more.

Answer 1

10 cents per album. 3 cents per song.
