No other female recording artist has achieved this level of sales during the past year, according to Universal Music Group.Additionally, Loose has racked up 7.4 million digital singles sales worldwide and 4.4 million in ringtones. Loose has been certified gold in 31 countries and platinum in 23 countries worldwide. This week Loose will celebrate it's 60th continuous week on the Billboard Top 200 Album chart, where it debuted at #1 after being released June 20, 2006. The album also recently returned to #1 for the second time on Billboard's European Top 100 Album chart where it is currently at #2.
Nelly is certainly a self-sufficient recording artist. She can not only write the songs, record and perform them, but now she can successfully direct the supporting video as well. Nelly Furtado took her first turn in the director's chair with a sassy video for her new single "Do It." MTV added the video directly into The Big Ten, the channel's heavy rotation category. "Do It" also enjoyed a TRL World Premier during Backstage Pass Week the beginning of August, with Nelly calling into the show via webcam from Portugal.
