Adele has only been touring small venues in the UK but her ’21′ album has accumulated a massive response. In fact, after 35 weeks on the UK Albums Chart, the LP is still ranked in the top 5.
’21′ has now logged 35 weeks in the top 5 of the lineup. With this tremendous feat as well as 12 weeks at #1, the album also nabbed a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the only album in UK history to selling 3 million copies in a single calendar year.
Further down the list, David Guetta’s ‘Nothing but the Beat’ slipped one spot to #8 while Adele’s ’19′ continued to slide by dropping to #10. However, Amy Winehouse’s ‘Back to Black’ and Rihanna’s ‘Loud’ experienced minor resurgences by rebounding to #12 and #14, respectively.
Meanwhile, on the Official UK Singles Chart, Jason Derulo scored a massive #4 debut with ‘It Girl’ while David Guetta and Usher’s ‘Without You’ jumped from #31 to #19. Conversely, Leona Lewis’ ‘Collide’ cascaded 8 spots from #10 to #18.

35 weeks is exactly 7 months as each 3 months has 13 weeks in it so the year has 52 rather than 48 she must be at about 3.2 million in the UK now so eligible for 11x platinum 3.3 million and with the Holidays coming she could very well finish the year with 4 million sold in the UK
