Adele’s ‘21’ reaches 1 million downloads mark

Adele’s chart-busting album, '21' hit a million digital downloads in the US yesterday (July 14), making her the first female artist to reach this milestone.

The album, which is also set to return to the top of the UK album chart on Sunday, has now outsold Eminem's 'Recovery', which had previously held the record. 

'21' also reigns as this year’s best selling album so far, with physical CD sales totaling 2.6 million copies. Adele’s '21' recently spent 10 non-consecutive weeks atop the Billboard 200 charts, and the single 'Rolling In The Deep' is the number one selling digital song with downloads totaling 4.23 million.
