We're not too surprised! The Tonys WERE just on, after all!

Adele's monster of a second album, 21, is back at the number one spot on the Billboard 200 albums chart for a tenth non-consecutive week, followed in the number two position by Lady GaGa's Born This Way, and now, the soundtrack to the Broadway smash The Book Of Mormon has secured third place, with 61,000 copies sold!

That makes it the highest charting Broadway cast album, and first top ten, since the Hair soundtrack spent 13 weeks at number one in 1969!

Amazing!

We're so happy to see a musical doing so well - especially one as good as The Book of Mormon!

Congratulations to everyone! All well-deserved!

Neil Patrick Harris = WINNING! (Brooke Shields, not so much!)

If you missed the Tonys last night, then you missed an all too important message from one of our favorite people on the planet! NPH tore up the stage in his opening number with a HIGHlarious original song that is sure to get you off your butt and to the theater toot sweet!

Check out the video (above) to see Neil give it his all at the Tonys, then click the jump to see who won big last night!

Good lord! As if this show even needed the 14 nods it received this morning!

Trey Parker and Matt Stone's smash new musical, Book of Mormon, not only CLEANED HOUSE picking up accolades at today's Tony Award nominations annoucement, but also apparently sold out EVERY seat for every show last week - and then some!

According to statistics, the performances averaged out at 102% capacity, which means that there were audience members standing in the back of the theater watching!

We have a feeling that with the nominations, it's only going to become MORE in-demand!

Good lord! We need to see this one!

Congratulations, guys!

We're excited to see how the show continues to do!

It's that time again, and it looks like Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark is going to sweep this year! JK!

Okay, so maybe the doomed-from-the-start super hero production isn't getting any Tony love this year, but some other unorthodox choices have gotten some nominations this year.

The South Park creators' Book of Mormon topped the nominations with a whopping 14 noms! Wowsa!

Other notable mentions include The Scottsboro Boys with 12 noms and Anything Goes with 9.

Should be inneresting to see if Mormon dominates this year. We've def been hearing overwhelmingly positive things!

Check out the full list of Tony nominations AFTER THE JUMP!
