Ayaka's best album breaks 1 million
Thu, November 5, 2009 (12:16am EST)
"Ayaka's History 2006-2009," the first best album by singer-songwriter Ayaka (21), has just reached a million copies shipped, about a month and a half after its release.

Released on September 23, the album started strong with almost 350,000 sales in its first week, the highest for a female artist this year. It ranked #1 on the charts for two consecutive weeks and was #4 this past week. So far, it is the only album by a solo artist to break the million mark this year.

Ayaka announced in April that she is putting her career on hold to undergo treatment for Graves' disease. She also revealed at that time that she and actor Hiro Mizushima (25) had married.

NAH

you're the one that got confused not me . I wrote "this's the 3rd album to be certified Million by RIAJ for shipment of a million copies in Japan" which's true & not necessarily directed at her

1st album that got certified Million for this year's GReeeeN's Shio Koshou followed by ARASHI's All the BEST ! & then now ayaka

[Crystal_Ageha]

Whooo! So proud of her. She deserves this.

Well considering all three albums she's released have been very successful, I'm sure they'll give her the proper promotion ( ).

Its such a rarity now for an album to ship 1 million copies, that's really good!
