Listening to "19" right now. Love this album and i love how 19 and 21 are quite different to eachother, i know lots of people who wern't fans of 19 were skeptical of 21 but i love the transition there.

Lol. According to mediatraffic, sales of 21 worldwide last week were slightly up on the previous week at 224k. This is just ridiculous, she's selling almost a million a month, it's Summer and this album was released over 6 months ago!

Total now 8,377,000

I'm starting to think she might actually beat the 2004 total of Usher(11,867,000).! and beat it by some margin.

On that website someone posted on the other page, it said that she's performing "someone like you" at the vmas... whilst it would be fitting for her to perform rolling in the deep considering she is nominated for it. I think someone like you would just steal the show.

From HDD:

Adele goes back to #1 next week for her 12th non-consecutive week at the top, surpassing Taylor Swift's Fearless for the most weeks at #1 since at least 2000. In fact, the last album to log 12 weeks at #1 was Santana's Supernatural in 1999.

I can hear geordielady screaming from here.

Nor am I in all fairness, I think I ran out of superlatives to describe Adele's success.

Interesting article about Adeles lifestyle.

Don't worry, from the 'other' Adele thread on here it's clear that the feat has been noted, lol.

Adele signed for xfactor final. Thank goodness not as a judge.

Leave them wanting more I say. Which is a good thing, since that is certainly their pr style.

When is this final? Near the holidays?

Just a heads up. The Daily Star is never reliable. Wait for official announcements before believing this sort of rubbish, this article has most likely been written to build hype for the start of the new series.

For once, though, a Daily Star article that is eminently believable, lol, although of course any of us could have written it. It doesn't take Einstein to work out that getting Adele on the Finale Show would be a real coup - and she absolutely loves the show anyway.

I have a feeling it will be Gaga and Adele on the finals. They have two acts performing don't they? Gaga is said to be coming to the U.K in December. In terms of sales and popularity they're the two biggest stars currently ITV would be stupid to not book one if not both of them.

Ridiculously early prediction - Jade Alexis Richards to win the show after duetting with Adele in the Final.

I can't wait to see her end of year sales figures. Generally sales are massively inflated over Christmas, with albums that would usually sell around 40k per week selling up to 250k per week, before slumping massively in the first week of January.. Adele is going to sell LOADS over Christmas

I hope Don't You Remember is the single Adele performs, I think it would be a great single for the winter months. It's great to see that one of the main attractions of the final will actually be a British artist for a change.
