Adele '25' Album: 'Hello' Singer Sells Three Million Copies Of Her Comeback Album; Breaks Taylor Swift's And 'NSync's Records

Adele breaks record sales as she sold 3.38 million copies of her latest album, "25" just after a week of its release. The soul singer is truly in a league of her own as her fans are all lining up just to get a piece of her.

Her No.1 single "Hello" also smashed records with her YouTube video getting a view rate of 1.6 million times per hour. The ticket sales for her upcoming tour has already sold out.
