For all the smack Christina Aguilera talked about newbie singer Lady Gaga this month, you would think her Greatest Hits album “Keeps Gettin' Better” would have charted higher on Billboard this week.

Aguilera's “Keeps Gettin' Better” sold a low 78,000 copies in its debut week and landed at number 9 on the music charts…right behind Enya's Christmas album.

While Enya is talented, she didn’t knock herself out promoting like Christina and still beat her. Enya sat back with a cup of tea and smacked Christina down a notch.

In other news, Lady Gaga topped the dance charts in America and the music chart in Australia.

Enya’s first holiday album, “And Winter Came,” gives the Irish singer a Top 10 entry, starting at No. 8, with first week sales of 92,000 copies, and a Christina Aguilera hits collection, “Keeps Gettin’ Better,” a Target exclusive, enters at No. 9 with sales of 73,000 copies.
