Adele In Album Chart Battle With Hugh Laurie

Adele's reign at number one could be coming to an end this weekend.

According to midweek figures House actor Hugh Laurie's debut album 'Let Them Talk' is currently just behind Adele's '21' in the UK album chart.

As previously reported on Gigwise, Adele's album has now spent thirteen weeks at number one, the most consecutive weeks at number one for a solo artist's studio album in chart history. 

Miles Kanes' debut 'Colour Of The Trap' is currently at number six, with Glee 'Glee: The Music Presents The Warblers' a new entry at number five.

Elsewhere, on the singles chart, David Guetta's single 'Where Them Girls At' featuring Nicki Minaj and Flo Rida is at number three, with Lady Gaga's 'The Edge Of Glory' at number seven.

Meanwhile, Adele's former boyfriend is asking for a cut of her royalties to album '19'.
