One Direction's 'Up All Night' Overtakes Lionel Richie's 'Tuskeegee' as 2012's Second-Biggest Selling Album July 20, 2012 | By Keith Caulfield ( keith_caulfield), Los Angeles The Billboard 200: On the Billboard 200 this past week, Zac Brown Band scored its second No. 1 album, as "Uncaged" debuted atop the tally with 234,000 sold according to Nielsen SoundScan. It marked the best sales week yet for the country group and the second-largest frame this year for any country album. At No. 2 on the list, Frank Ocean's much buzzed-about album "Channel Orange" arrived with 131,000 -- nearly all from downloads via the iTunes Store. Aside from our top two this week, there were of course other movers and shakers as well. Let's take a look: -- One Direction: Last week, One Direction's "Up All Night" become the year's second-biggest selling album in the U.S. according to Nielsen SoundScan, s urpassing Lionel Richie's "Tuskegee." This week, it further distances itself: 971,000 vs. 943,000. (Adele's "21" is still tops, with 3.7 million.) On the Billboard 200 chart, "Up All Night" has only left the weekly top 10 once in its 18 weeks. This week, it climbs 11-7 with 36,000 sold. The set's lead single "What Makes You Beautiful" reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and is 2012's seventh-largest selling digital song (3 million sold). The album's new single, "One Thing," slips 39-41 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week -- but maintains its bullet (indicating continued growth in popularity).

2nd best selling album of the year so far? LEGENDS! NU BAETLE! I JUST CAN'T... :'( :'( :'( :'(
It kinda makes sense why One Thing isn't selling more copies if 1 million people already have the album... I just wish it would sell more! And now it's out of the top 40. What was its peak on the Hot 100?

Yeah, that's ridiculous. The album is STILL in the top 10. There's no reason for the disconnect on pop radio.

Bow to these iconic album sales. Radio needs to get right with it. Clearly it's an ageism issue.

Has anyone else read the reports that Louis and Harry are asking for the gay rumors to stop, because it's harming their friendship?

You might want to read or post the actual article, because your little synopsis is a bit misleading.

It was more in your wording of it that bothered me. I'm just being pedantic.

Wow... they're really making Louis do a lot to cover it up. How'd you come to that conclusion? He's more bothered by the fact that crazy fans are persistently insistent that he and Harry are in a romantic relationship. Considering he's in an actual relationship, I can understand why he'd be peeved. Whether he's actually gay or not is irrelevant. The fact that Larry shippers are insane, analyze their EVERY action and gesture (no exaggeration), and constantly tweet him and his gf hateful language (male who is into other males, homo, beard) is more than enough to warrant his reaction. He's more bothered by the Larry rumors than gay rumors. He's bothered that he can't behave the same way he does with any other friend, including his best friend from childhood, around Harry because of the crazies. My view is that if he were really so bothered by gay rumors, he'd tone down his stereotypically gay aspects. In fact, if he were so far in the closet as many claim, he would not have ever had such an affectionate bromance with Harry to begin with. With that said, I'm convinced he's gay, and Harry isn't straight.

I don't think he's involved with Harry, in fact I think this Louis is the only one I genuinely don't think is straight. WHICH IS FINE BY ME!
