Selling twice as much as the number two album, Michael Bublé's Christmas is proving to be the Holiday album choice of the year. On its sixth week on the album sales chart, Christmas sold around 301,000 copies which not only marks Bublé's best sales week ever, but also sends the album just over the one million copies sold.

At a distant runner-up place, we find Adele's monster hit album 21, which added another 145,000 to its grand total, bringing it to 4.81 million copies sold.

Justin Bieber comes in at number three with Under the Mistletoe. Selling 140,000 units last week, the album now stands at 673,000 total copies sold.

Rihanna's Talk That Talk suffered a 67% sales drop on its second week on the chart and fell to number seven, only adding 64,000 copies to its now total of 262,000 sold.

Billboard's final sales tally report will be posted tomorrow on their official website.
