Yeah, yeah, yeah!

There can be nothing better than having an album that can still sell,sell,sell after eight years on the market â€" and Usher can admit to that.

According to Nielsen SoundScan, the Climax singer reached over 10 million in sales this week for his 2004 record, Confessions, making it 19th album to hit this great achievement since the company started tracking in 1991.

Eminem's, The Eminem Show, is the last music collection that sold over 10 million copies, but Metallica's, Metallica, has never been passed up in sales with 15.8 million units!

Dayum!

Billboard reports that Usher's masterpiece sold 2,000 copies last week, and when the album was released, it debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart selling more than 1 million units in a single week.

Yeah!, Burn, and Confessions II really had an impact on the music world, and will continue to blast through our sound systems hard!

But one thing's for sure, the RB King better watch out for Adele because she was really close to crushing his sales record.

Luckily for the artist, the songstress didn't get to Roll in too Deep because he still achieved the milestone!

Work it out, Raymond!

Ukraine's Horrifying 'Gay Gag Rule' Has Been Defeated…For Now

Ukraine's Horrifying 'Gay Gag Rule' Has Been Defeated…For Now

Ukraine gay gag rule defeated

It's absolutely terrifying that this legislation was even being CONSIDERED, but thankfully, the people of Ukraine and other European countries have stood up to defeat it.

The Ukrainian parliament was scheduled to vote on a new law on Friday which would make it illegal to "spread homosexuality" by "holding meetings, parades, actions, demonstrations and mass events aiming at intentional distribution of any positive information about homosexuality." Ukrainian citizens who broke the proposed law would be facing up to five years in prison for freely expressing any positive opinion about homosexuality through ANY medium.

Scary, right?

Although this exposed the frightening homophobia that is still felt around the globe, it gives us hope to hear that other foreign governments actively denounced the law, while thousands of people signed a petition against it.

On top of Ireland, Argentina, and the European Parliament speaking out against the oppressive law, AllOut.org delivered 120,000 signatures to Ukrainian authorities at the European Union and Council of Europe. Andre Banks, co-founder of the human rights organization, commented on the results of everyone's hard work by saying:

"More than 120,000 All Out members spoke out against this horrendous legislation and pushed it to the top of Europe’s diplomatic agenda. The message of our growing global movement is simple - everyone should be able to live openly and love who they choose. That call has been echoed by the European diplomatic community who played a critical role in blocking the progress of the gay gag law. Above all, this is a victory for our partners in Ukraine. Together we are sending a strong message to the other governments of Eastern Europe. Support for anti-gay laws embolden extremists at the expense of lucrative European ambitions."

As a result of everyone's hard work, the bill has been shelved. Unfortunately, the sitting Parliament can STILL vote on the issue in September before new politicians take over. We're crossing our fingers that doesn't happen.

This is just one of MANY fights that All Out is involved in every day. If U want to learn more about how to spread equality and support the LGBT community around the world, CLICK HERE!
