This year, there were a few records that delivered less-than-optimal returns on either the Hot 100 or the Billboard 200 β and they all came from former Disney pop stars.
Demi Lovatoβs latest album peaked at number nine on the Billboard 200, where it spent one week and then fell off; Selena Gomezβs record with Benny Blanco peaked at number 2 on the Billboard 200, but no songs cracked the top 40; and Miley Cyrusβs album is her shortest charting project to date. On this episode of Switched On Pop, Nate and Reanna try to get to the bottom of the so-called βDisney curse,β and why these artists are unable to recapture their past commercial success.
