Taylor Swift's new album 'Speak Now' is set to sell over a million units in its first week of release. 

Appearing on the Ellen show yesterday (November 1) the country singer dodged questions about her love life and whether relationships with John Mayer and Taylor Lautner influenced her songwriting.

The last time an album sold so many in its first week was two years ago when Lil Wayne's 'Tha Carter III' was released in June 2008. It could be the biggest debut since 50 Cent's 'Massacre' which sold 1,141,000 in March 2005.

Swift performed two songs on the show 'You Belong With Me' and her new single, 'Mine'. Watch the latter being performed below:
