Actually, for a while, it looked like Adele's career would stall here.
"Chasing Pavements" was going up the charts, and an online rumor started, saying the subject of the song is a woman chasing after a relationship with a gay man. With this "scandal" brewing, "Chasing Pavements" lost airplay, and stopped at #21 on our Hot 100 chart.
The second single ("Hometown Glory") was released but failed to chart.
Her success came at the Grammy awards where she won Best New Artist and Best Pop Vocal, Female. After that, her CD became a top seller despite no smash singles.
Thankfully, the singles on "21" have found massive success here.
