The
Hello singer has been named as the most popular recording artist across
the globe in 2015, according to an international music trade body.
British
acts make up half of the top 10 artists on the list compiled by the
International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI).
Adele(27)is the third recipient of the IFPI Global Recording Artist of the year award - an accolade that reflects an artist's worldwide popularity across physical formats, downloads and streams.
Adele's place at the
top of the chart was driven by the October release and subsequent
global success of lead single Hello from the album.
The track was number one in more than 30 countries worldwide, including the US, Germany, France, Italy, Australia and the UK.
Adele's album 25 followed in November and has notched up worldwide sales of over 15 million.
