Taylor Swift Sells 1.2Million Copies of New Album in First Week
NEW YORK — Taylor Swift’s new album is called “Red,” but its true color is a brilliant platinum. The 22-year-old sold 1.2 million copies of her latest album in its first week – the largest sales week for any album in a decade.
Nielsen SoundScan confirmed the blockbuster sales on Tuesday night. “Red” marks Swift’s second straight album to sell more than 1 million copies in its first week; “Speak Now,” her third album, sold a little over 1 million copies when it was released in 2010. She is the only woman to have two albums sell more than 1 million copies in its first week.
“They just told me Red sold 1.2 million albums first week. How is this real life?! You are UNREAL. I love you so much. Thanks a million,” Swift tweeted Tuesday night.
The only other act to sell more than 1 million copies of an album in its debut week twice was `N Sync.
Swift isn’t a boy band, but she’s certainly got the appeal of one: the country crossover has a huge following, particularly among teens who have followed her since she was a teen herself, releasing her first album. But she’s also a critic’s darling: The Grammy-winner’s “Red” garnered plenty of acclaim when it was released last week.
Swift was omnipresent in the week of the album’s release, appearing on such shows as “Good Morning America” and “Katie.” She also joined with two untraditional partners – Papa John’s and Walgreens, which offered the album for sale. And she announced her upcoming tour.
The last album to sell more than 1 million copies in its debut week was Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way,” which sold 1.1 million copies last year. However, that album was deeply discounted on Amazon.com in its first week.
Swift has the opportunity to celebrate for a second time this week: As the reigning “Entertainer of the Year” at the CMA Awards, she has the chance to capture the trophy again when it is held Thursday in Nashville.

Popular Nollywood Actor, Kenneth Okonkwo Dumps Acting For Evangelism?
What Nigeriafilms.com can confirm to you is that the prolific actor has added the gospel of soul winning for God to his already acquired two professions; acting and law profession. The actor surprised many when he was seen at a lawyers’ forum few years ago.
Now, Kenneth has shown that aside from acting and law practice, he is a good Evangelist; a fisher of men for God. Kenneth Okonkwo recently headlined a 3-day crusade held in Ikorodu, Lagos as a guest minister of God of the event.
The ’3-Day Explosive Fire and Total Deliverance’ crusade was tagged ‘Night of Dominion’ and was held between September 26-28. 2012. The service took place at Evangelist Peter Nwabueze’s Christ Mission Worldwide Church, Owode Onirin, Ikorodu Lagos.
Liz Benson, Pat Attah, Eucharia Anunobi are the few actors who have become ‘fishers of men’, will Kenneth dump acting to face the God’s minister full time? Or will he keep doing the three professions?

LASG to prosecute okada riders for destroying BRT buses and other government properties
The Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice of Lagos state,Mr. Ade Ipaye, has vowed that Lagos State Government will prosecute all persons allegedly involved in the vandalization of some of its property during the October 24, 2012 protest by commercial motorcycle operators.
Ipaye said this in his office on Wednesday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria.
He said he could not comprehend why some commercial motorcycle operators will destroy BRT buses and other government assets while protesting their restriction from 475 roads in the state.
He said “I cannot tell you the number. I just got reports that arrests were made, some have already been taken to court.
“But I can assure you that we are determined to ensure that those people face proper legal procedure that should follow such a very, very criminal vandalism of public assets.”
Responding to the allegations that some policemen and other law enforcement agents arresting commercial motorcyclists who were plying side streets,he said, law enforcement agents were working with a list compiled by the Lagos State Government indicating the prohibited areas.
“The issue whether you are where you should be or not, must be determined by reference to the list.
“And when you are in doubt, you should consult that list. It has been variously publicised, printed by the ministry of information.
“When you are in doubt and you are an operator, infact, I expect all the unions in that industry to have that list and to circulate it among their members,”he added.
The Attorney General noted that restriction of their operation is only on 475 roads out of over 9,000 roads in Lagos State, adding that there were other available employment opportunities in the state.
“There are various job opportunities out there already existing or being created. Government is spending billions on infrastructure development, people are engaged there.
“So, to say that you must keep what is not desirable or has been determined to be not desirable for us, just to keep some people in employment, I think it’s
a logic I cannot understand”.
a logic I cannot understand”.
“If we all don’t respect the laws and we do whatever we can in the name of trying to feed our families, if we take it that for survival you can do anything, then we will not have a civilised society,” he added.
Ipaye concluded that the suit against the government over the restriction was already being heard by a court of competent jurisdiction which will soon deliver its judgement
