Adele has broken so many records with the critical acclaimed ”21″ album. As of last night we learn that the album has officially reached diamond status (10 million records sold). Her success is undeniable, congrats to the Columbia/XL team.

Now in it’s 92nd week, 21 is the third fastest to get to the magical number in the Nielsen Soundscan era, following ‘N Sync’s No Strings Attached (43 weeks) and Backstreet Boys’Millennium (39 weeks). Adele’s album has sold 10,020,000 copies till date and has spent 24 non-consecutive weeks on top of Billboard 200 — the highest since Soundscan began tracking data in 1991. [AlLindstrom]
