Susan Boyle sold 410,000 copies in her first week of sales in the UK and this week she is already sold an additional 209,000 and it's only Friday AM. So with the Platinum Sales Award target set at 300,000 she has already smashed Double Platinum in the UK and will be closer to 3 x Plat by this time next week and a million by Christmas.
And in the USA, she sold 701,000 copies in her first week. If she sells a further 300k this week she will be Platinum in the USA too.
It's some serious sales from the BGT #2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lp0IWv8QZY
