Congratulations are in order!

Adele became the first living artist since The Beatles to achieve the feat of having two Top 5 hits in both the Official Singles Chart And Official Albums Chart in the UK.

The last time this was achieved was when The Beatles held the same record on December 12, 1964.

FABOOSH! We love your new album, 21, and ALL the songs!!!

Get it, gurl!! You deserve it, boo!

I'm just proud that her little low key performance at the Brit awards managed to get her to number on the singles chart without being over hyped and over publicized like she who will not be named. I used to think Adele was over hyped but with this album she upped her game and I'm in love.

Yeah, and Bieber is the next Jimi Hendrix. Quit comparing this horsesh*t to real music that actually has integrity.
