Whoa Taylor Swift.

Have whatever opinions that you want about this girl but she sure knows how to sell some records!!

According to Billboard Magazine this morning Swfits new album Red has racked up the highest first week sales of any album in a decade with more than 1.2 million copies. I'm sorry... WHAT!?! This will surely put her at number 1 for the week and what is sure to be many weeks in the future.

Its the strongest sales week since Eminem's The Eminem Show which sold more than 1.3 million copies its first week in 2002. Thats insane.

In other startling Swift facts she is the only woman to have two million-selling weeks since SoundScan began keeping track of album sales in 1991. Red is only the 18th album to sell a million copies in a single week since 1991, and the 1.2 million is the second largest sales total for a female artist. The number 1 spot belongs to Ms. Britney Spears.
