Bow down, b*tches, Beyoncé came back for her crown – quick! The Queen of the Beyhive didn’t come to play any games with the recent release of her fifth studio album, Beyoncé.
Knocking down doors with no care of taking names, the surprise album has scored record breaking sales in just a mere three days! Selling a jaw-dropping amount of 828,773 on iTunes, the songstress has set the new record for fattest selling album on iTunes – worldwide!
Also setting records for U.S. first-week sells by raking in 617,213 copies sold and hitting number one in over 100 countries, Beyoncé closed out 2013 on a super high note. To continue adding to the success of the surprise album for fans, Mrs. Carter can now add in having the largest sales week of 2013 for a woman.
While the official Billboard 200 weekly calculations haven’t dropped yet, it’s easy to say that we’ll be seeing Beyoncé sitting pretty in that top spot. A “Diva” in her own lane, she definitely “woke up like ‘dis”!
Here’s to Beyoncé shutting 2013 down with the quickness – and possibly 2014! Go get ’em, B!
