Il Divo Follow In Footsteps Of Coldplay

Simon Cowell's operatic quartet Il Divo shot straight to number one in the US album charts today.

Their second album, Ancora, knocked Jamie Foxx off the top of the Billboard Top 100. The US market is notoriously difficult to crack for British recording artists. Only a small group, including the Beatles, Elton John, U2, Led Zeppelin and Coldplay, have gone straight to number one.
