It's a shame and these are very good awards - noted for songwriting.

http://www.entertainmentwise.com/news/7 ... -In-The-US

How long will Adele's success last? Well her acclaimed album '21' has now passed the 9 million sales mark in the US.

'21' has now sold a further 101,000 copies for the week ending May 13, according to Nielsen SoundScan data.

Mother's Day certainly was a good day for the London singer as she experienced a 31% sales gain over the past week.

'21' has so far spent 23 weeks at the top of the US album chart in total. It will hit RIAA diamond sales status if it passes the 10 million mark.

The album recently became the fifth best-selling album in UK chart history, taking over Michael Jackson's classic 'Thriller' in the process. Her record label also announced plans to re-release '21' with additional new tracks in time for Christmas

Don't know why they are talking about the re-release like it's definitely happening.
Counting down the days until 21 outsells Morning Glory in the UK.
Mission complete on 29.12.2012 :)

If this re-release turns out to be true, 21 could be in the top 10 2 years after the release just like Shania Twain's Come On Over (had an international version released) and Nickelback's All The Right Reasons (had a very successful 5th single)...

Jenna Marbles made a video called "Interrupting Adele" which basically is a parody about that how Adele is "everywhere"... and Jenna is like "get the **** out..."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtuqJZqEIi8

:lol: It's sad that people actually agree with it and say that Adele should go away... if you read the comments... :(

the video was uploaded yesterday and it has 800k views and 10k comments so free promo... :lol: well, not really

I think the one hour special on NBC next month will give the album a big boost

How come the Evening Standard is saying that Adele wins the double but loses out big award? Has it started and finished already? I thought Adele just got there. So confused.
The article can't be found now but it was here.

I thought Kate Bush would win - 21's commercial success has probably put them off choosing it.

Amazing for Adele :).

She looks good, but it's time to wear other colours other than black...
