Taylor Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl will take a nosedive in sales during its second week according to Hits Daily Double. The album opened with an impressive 4 million copies, but will do 345K during its second week. That’s still a respectable number, however coming from an artist that just opened with a historic opening week in the US…
For comparison, Adele’s 25 sold 1.16 million during it’s second week in the US.
25 remains the biggest opening week for any album in UWC history, with 5.7 million copies sold worldwide.
