Listen to Adele on iHeartRadio

Adele's 21 has broken another Billboard chart record. The smash 2011 release will climb a spot to number-eight on the new Billboard 200 album chart, according to the latest SoundScan figures. That makes it 73 weeks in the Top 10 so far, which means 21 has spent more weeks in the Top 10 than any other album by a woman in history.

The previous record was 72 weeks by Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill.

21 has a long way to go to match the all-time record, which is 109 weeks by the soundtrack to The Sound of Music.
