Ellie Goulding Outsells Lady Gaga To Top UK Album Chart

Ellie Goulding has replaced Lady Gaga at the top of the UK album charts with her debut release, 'Lights'.

The 23-year-old singer, who was recently named Critics' Choice at the Brit Awards, thanked fans for their “incredible support and kindness”.

Lady Gaga's 'The Fame', which had returned to the top spot following her UK tour dates, fell to number two.

Alicia Keys' 'The Element Of Freedom' was a non-mover at number three, while Florence and the Machine's 'Lungs' rounded off the top-5.

In the singles chart, British MC Tinie Tempah went to number one with 'Pass Out'.

Rihanna climbed one place to number two with 'Rude Boy', while last week's number one Jason Derulo's 'In My Head' fell to number three.

The top-5 was completed by Ellie Goulding's 'Starry Eyed' and Florence & the Machine and Dizzee Rascal's 'You Got The Dirtee Love' at numbers four and five.
