"X Factor" winner Leona Lewis broke another record as she topped both the single and album charts on Sunday, trouncing the newly reformed Spice Girls in the process.
Lewis's "Spirit" broke the record for Britain's fastest-selling debut album notching up 375,000 sales, 12,000 more than previous holders the Artic Monkeys managed last year, the Official UK Charts Company (OCC) said.
"Leona has secured her place in chart history in terms of debut albums," said Darren Haynes, OCC Marketing Manager, adding that she was short of the fastest-selling album of all time, "Be Here Now", by Oasis which sold 813,000 copies in seven days.
