Adele’s ’25’ Sells 2.3 Million Copies in Three Days
UPDATE: Adele's 25 has broken the single-week sales record. Click here for more details.
Adele’s third album, 25, is more than likely going to smash the single-week sales record for an album after selling 2.3 million copies in its first three days of release, according to Nielsen Music. Its updated one-week forecast: 2.9 million.
Billboard reports that 25’s three-day bow marks only the second time an album has sold over 2 million copies in a single week since Nielsen Music began tracking sales in 1991. Once again: 25 passed 2 million sold in not just one week, but three days.
