Rihanna breaks 20 million UK record sales barrier

Rihanna has now racked up 20 million record sales in the UK alone, according to the Official Charts Company.

The 24-year-old has enjoyed great success in the country since releasing her debut UK single Pon de Replay almost seven years ago.

The Official Charts Company however have today (June 26) confirmed that Rihanna has now notched up 20 million album and single sales in the UK.

'We Found Love' is Rihanna's top selling single in the UK, followed by her collaboration with Eminem, 'Love The Way You Lie'.

Speaking about Rihanna's success, the Official Charts Company's Managing Director Martin Talbot said:

"Rihanna's record, in selling more than 20 million singles and albums in the space of seven years, is truly staggering. There certainly must have been something in the water when she - and Adele three months later - was born in Spring 1988."
