Lorde's 'Pure Heroine' hits 1 million in sales, first debut set to do so since last October

Lorde has been making big moves with her debut album Pure Heroine and she just recently got some good news.

Lorde's album recently crossed the 1 million sales mark, becoming the first debut set to do so since last October.

According to Nielsen SoundScan, the album sold another 30,000 copies in the week ending Feb. 23. Its total sales stand at 1.01 million.

Billboard reports that Lorde is the first woman to have her debut album hit a million in sales since April 2011, when Adele's 19 cleared 1 million (week ending April 3).

Pure Heroine is the second album by a woman this year to reach 1 million, following Katy Perry's PRISM (week ending Jan. 5).

Beyonce was the only woman to sell a million records in 2013.

Pure Heroine has been on the top 20 of the Billboard 200 since its debut on the chart dated Oct. 19, 2013. It has remained in the top 10 for 16 non-consecutive weeks, including the last nine in a row.

"Team," Lorde's current radio single, rises to a new peak (climbing 9-7) on the Billboard Hot 100 this week following her No. 1 smash and Grammy-award winning "Royals," which spent nine weeks at No. 1 in 2013.

Lorde's next single from Pure Heroine will be "Glory and Gore," which debuts at No. 88 on the Hot 100 this week.

Originally it was reported that Lorde's third single would be "Tennis Court."
