Adele

Adele has quickly established herself as a superstar of the international music business.
From humble beginnings, her career was given a sizeable boost, winning not only the BBC's Sound Of 2008 poll, but also the Brit Awards' Critics Choice Award.
She subsequently released her debut album '19' to critical acclaim and came close to achieving the No.1 spot with 'Chasing Pavements'.
From the release of her sophomore album '21' onwards, however, everything she's touched has turned to gold.
'21' has gone on to sell more than 30 million copies across the planet and the singles from it, like 'Rolling In The Deep' and 'Someone Like You' have become global favourites.
Now, with her new album '25', the records continue to tumble.
