SHINE BRIGHT! Adele's "21" Album Goes Diamond (DETAILS)

Posted November 28, 2012 by Brittany Lewis for Global Grind Staff

They say diamonds are a girl's best friend.

DETAILS: Adele Gives Birth To A Baby Boy

Besides having a new bundle of joy, Adele has a lot of celebrating to do.

The "Rolling In The Deep" singer's sophomore album, 21, has gone "diamond." 

Yeah, diamond. 

In the age where piracy and illegal downloads are as common as colds, most artists today can't even reach platinum status - let alone diamond status. 

NEW MUSIC: Adele "Skyfall"

Adele's 21 has sold a whopping 10 million copies in the United States alone. The "Skyfall" songstress has spent 92 weeks on the charts, which is virtually unheard of in the digital age. 

Adele's 21 ironically marks the 21st album to ever go diamond and joins an exclusive group of artists like Usher and Linkin Park, who sold 10 plus million copies in their heyday. 

No one, not even Taylor Swift, is reigning on the charts like Adele. 

Congrats!
