Susan Boyle Rivals Justin Bieber On US Album Chart

November 24, 2010
Susan Boyle Rivals Justin Bieber On US Album ChartSusan Boyle has maintained her hold on the top of the US Billboard album chart for a second week.

The former Britain’s Got Talent star’s second album ‘The Gift’ enjoyed a rare 5% increase in sales in its second week.

Justin Bieber was the last artist to profit from a second week bump when sales of ‘My World 2.0’ rose by 3% in August.

‘The Gift’ is Boyle’s second number one in the US. Boyle has also achieved the same feat in the UK.

In a week for reality stars, America's Got Talent runner-up Jackie Evancho debuted at number two with ‘O Holy Night’.

There are a total of eight new entries inside this week’s top-10.
