Adele reaches 10 million in sales with "21" album (updated: RIAA certified it Diamond) 10 MILLION ADELE FANS CAN’T BE WRONG: Adele is headed for two major milestones this week as 21 crosses the 10m mark, while her DVD, Live at the Royal Albert Hall, will hit one million in total sales either this week or next. The last time a DVD sold that much was Jay-Z/Linkin Park, which sold a million copies in its first four weeks of release in 2004. Michael Jackson's #1s sold over a million copies in the weeks following his death, but that DVD was originally released in 2003.

According to HITS, the album has pushed 28,505 bringing the album total to 10,020,000 copies. It also becomes just the twenty-first album in the history of Soundscan (1991- ) to become a ten-million seller.
Congrats Adele! [Edited 11/28/12 10:23am] | |

Well deserved. That is one awesome album. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I hope Adele isn't the Hootie of her generation. If her next album only goes platinum, she's in trouble!

Depends on if her heart's in it or not. I know it's impossible to have another album do ten million... | |

Once this passes Confessions by Usher he is going to throw a fit
Since him & many of his people where saying it was the Thriller of our time. Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

It's already at 25 million worldwide. It's closing in on being platinum in Japan too. | |

Usher's jealousy showed when Adele reached nine million back in May lol | |

I don't own it either. I do like the one popular single she had from it but i haven't heard anything else from it. Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |

I just think this is funny cause when i watched Usher BTM they said Confessions was one of the biggest albums of all time since Thriller
Then L.A Peed was saying it's the last big album this industry has seen & in another interview he said it won't be surpased anytime soon
So i know they are pressed now

Yeah. Funny thing is Confessions just passed the ten million mark THIS YEAR. Adele did that in less than two years! That definitely would smart braggarts like Usher and L.A. | |

Cool beans for her.
But is it well deserved?
I heard she's a pretty lazy star -didn't see cancel her first American tour to 'chill out' with her boyfriend at the time? Whilst most people would kill for that opportunity. It's hard to respect someone like that.
At least Katy Pary, Beyonce and Rihanna work their asses off for their sales. | |

well... while that does seem lazy.
Adele can just sing songs, have a few hits & sell millions....
If that works, hell good for whoever does that
Katy & Rihana have to release new albums or re-releases every year, new singles every few months, tour, cause controversy... all that shizz cause there albums don't sell.
