No its all to do with her album sales and all the singles from the album itself i would say...Who You Are as an album hasnt sold THAT much globally...some people still dunno who she is lol!

But it is the total records sold FROM the album certified there if that makes sense

Amazing really that her mediocre songs can sell even that much.

She's lucky. Good choice of singles which has helped the album. The album is poor quality, all filler (except 'big white room').

Bit silly of her to RT something that's clearly not true.

Urgh, she wishes

The album has sold about 1.5 million copies worldwide. I think 800k is that in the UK alone

No. It's combined with the singles sales too. And the album tracks suck to be honest. The singles are the highlights

She wishes. Actually, considering the amount she's been virtually forced on everyone by the hype-machine (i.e. the bank managers of the music industry), she's not done that well.

Though they've managed to convince a load of gullible non-music fans that she's the second coming, namely the wannabe 'cool kids', and the credibility-seekers (e.g most of the Daily Mail readers), thankfully a lot of people have seen past all the hype and see her for the fake, contrived fraud she really is.

The hype machine doesn't work outside of the UK (ie Critcs choice). It did sod all for Adele in the US with 19, same for Jessie. Adele had the great songs though, it was radio that was the problem. She's done well singles wise though. But it's a good thing they didn't all buy the album. I love her as an act, but her debut isn't great. Singles are nice, but the album has lots of naff tracks, besides Big White room, which is great.
