Adele's '21' reaches 12 million in sales worldwide

Closing in on a full year of availability, Adele’s album 21 has now moved over 12 million copies worldwide. The much-celebrated project was released in January of this year, as speculation is that 13 million units will have been moved by the year’s end. The British singer-songwriter is undoubtedly one of the hottest artists in any given genre, even though she had to cancel her recent tour due to undergoing throat surgery.
