When Adore Delano said she wanted to go "mainstream", she wasn't joking! According to the Neilsen SoundScan, her debut album 'Till Death Do Us Party' had the biggest sales week of any RuPaul's Drag Race competitor to date, with 5,000 copies sold. Willam held the record previously with 3,000 copies for 'Boy Is A Bottom' 

'Till Death Do Us Party' debuted at #3 on the Dance/Electronic Albums chart and #59 on the Billboard 200, and her first 2 music videos (DTF & I Adore U) already have nearly a million views combined. With a 3rd music video in the works, Adore is anything but slowing down. 

Here's how the show's previous competitors compared according to Billboard.com: 

Season One:

  • Nina Flowers: Ranny's "Loca," featuring Flowers - No. 15 on Dance Club Songs, 2010
Season Two:

  • Sahara Davenport: "Go Off" - No. 35 on Dance Club Songs, 2012
  • Jessica Wild: Ranny's "You Like It Wild," featuring Wild - No. 30 on Dance Club Songs, 2011
Season Three:

  • Raja: "Diamond Crowned Queen" - No. 35 on Dance Club Songs, 2011
Season Four: 

  • Willam: Has charted five entries on the Comedy Digital Songs chart thanks to parody singles of popular hits. In 2012, "Chow Down" (featuring Vicky Vox & Detox) and "Love You Like a Big Schlong" reached Nos. 12 and 25, respectively. The following year "Boy Is a Bottom" (featuring Detox and Vox) hit No. 6, "RuPaulogize" (featuring Sharon Needles) reached No. 14 and the "Blurred Lines" spoof "Blurred Bynes" (again with Detox and Vox) hit No. 5.
  • Sharon Needles: The album "PG-13" reached No. 9 on the Dance/Electronic Albums chart, and also hit No. 186 on the Billboard 200. Needles also charted an entry on the Comedy Digital Songs chart with "RuPaulogize" (see Willam, above).
Season Five:

  • Detox: Has charted three entries, with Willam (see above).
Season Six:

  • Adore Delano (see above).
