Harry Styles' 'Fine Line' Debuts At No. 1 With Third-Biggest Debut Of 2019

The Late Late Show with James Corden

Harry Styles just scored his second number-one album with Fine Line!

Styles sophomore record, which made its arrival on December 13, debuted at the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart in its first week. According to Billboard via Nielsen Music, Fine Line received 478,000 equivalent album units in the United States, earning the largest week for a Columbia LP in over three years as well as the third-biggest week for any album to drop in 2019 after Taylor Swift’s Lover (869,000) and Post Malone’s Hollywood’s Bleeding (489,000).

Nielsen Music reports the Redditch-born vocalist also landed the largest sales week for an album put out by a male musician from the U.K. since it began tracking sales data electronically in 1991. What's more, Styles’ follow-up project just made him the first U.K. male artist to have his first two albums debut at No. 1 back to back. As fans know, the 25-year-old bagged his first leader when his debut self-titled album topped the charts in 2017, selling 230,000 equivalent album units in its first week.

Styles’ latest effort features previously-released singles “Lights Up,” “Watermelon Sugar,” and “Adore You.” To support Fine Line, the crooner will embark on his global “Love On Tour" alongside supporting acts like King Princess (Europe), Jenny Lewis (US/Canada) and Koffee (Mexico), in April 2020.

Tickets for Styles’ world tour are available now.
