Global pop sensation Jennie sold over a million copies of her debut album, Ruby, in the first week, Columbia Records announced Monday.
The 15-track album, released through a partnership with the label she founded, Oddatelier, and Columbia Records, was released on March 7 and debuted at No. 7 on the Billboard 200 chart. Jennie entered the top 10 in 19 different countries – hitting No. 2 in Australia and Korea and No. 3 in the UK. Columbia previously announced that the singer racked up 450,000 pre-orders.
The “Like JENNIE” singer is set to perform at the 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, having played the festival twice as a member of Blackpink. The four-piece girl group, formed under Korean entertainment company YG Entertainment, was the first K-pop act to headline the festival. Jennie and the rest of Blackpink are also slated to head out on a 10-city world tour this summer.
