Heck, why don’t we just call it “Adele Week.” Adele is so hot right now, with her third album 25 cruising to a historical best opening week on both sides of the Atlantic and its lead song “Hello” still hovering at or near the top of sales charts around the globe a month after its release.
The pop superstar brought her talents to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon overnight, where she delivered a confident, first-rate performance of “Water Under the Bridge,” lifted from her new album.
Adele’s ’25’ Is the 20th Album to Sell a Million Copies in a Week: See the Full List
Business around 25 has been nothing short of phenomenal since its release. In just three days, it’s become just the second album to sell more than 2 million first week copies in the U.S to become the top-selling album of 2015. And in the same timeframe, 25 has raced past 500,000 U.K. sales and by week’s end should hold the best-ever single-week sales record.
Adele also stuck around to play a game of “Box of Lies” with her host. Watch the videos below.
