- Dondria's debut album Dondria Vs. Phatfffat opens at #50 this week with just 8,300. No need wondering if there will be a 2nd album... there won't. I blame JD because he signed her in 2008 when she was kinda hot and is put her album out in 2010 after 100 other internet sensations have popped off. That's like American Idol waiting 2 years to drop the winner's album. The moment is over and there's 2 other Idol champs around. It's a lose, lose situation.
