Little Mix break Spice Girls’ US chart record
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 6 June 2013
Little Mix have broken the record for the highest opening chart position by a British all-girl group’s debut album in the Billboard 200, reaching number four. The record was previously held by the Spice Girls for ‘Spice’, which reached number six in its first week in 1997.
Though Little Mix achieved their number four chart ranking by shifting 50,000 copies of their ‘DNA’ album (which was released in the UK last year) – so they’ve still got some way to go to match the 5.3 million copies of ‘Spice’ that the Spice Girls went on to sell in the US alone in 1997.
