Thursday Billboard Update - 4/14/11

Adele 21
A lot of albums have come and gone on the Billboard 200 in 2011, but one just won't go away: Adele's 21. After a few week on hiatus, 21 storms back to #1 with 88,000 sold this past week. Also, with that, 21 becomes the first album to sell a million record this year.

Pretty slow week on the Hot 100 as spots 1-5 and 10 remain unchanged from a week ago. Britney Spears' Till the World Ends (13-8) does return to the top 10 after a few weeks away.
