Sam Smith has this week become the only artist to sell a million albums in both the UK and US in 2014.
The singer released debut album 'In The Lonely Hour' earlier this year and it passed the huge milestone in both countries to become the biggest selling record of the year.
Hearing of the news, Sam wrote on Twitter: "1 million albums sold in UK and 1 million sold in America - completely speechless (sic)".
The LP passed the figure on both sides of the Atlantic within 24 hours of one another, and by midnight on December 17 had sold 1.007 million in the UK according to the Official Charts Company's data.
It is just one of three albums to have sold over a million in America according to Nielsen Music, alongside the soundtrack to Disney's animated smash hit Frozen and Taylor Swift's fifth record '1989'.
In the UK, Ed Sheeran's the only other act to have hit the million sales mark this year with second album 'X'.
