Beyonce will be adding another platinum plaque to her collection. The singer’s newest album, “4,” has been certified platinum by the RIAA. “Thank you to all the fans that purchased the album. We hope you’re enjoying it as much as we are,” Beyonce said on her official website. “4’s” platinum status comes only five weeks after the album’s release when it immediately rose to #1 on the Billboard 200, selling 310,000 copies in its first week. This marks Beyoncé’s fourth solo album to go platinum following “I Am… Sasha Fierce,” “B-Day,” and her debut “Dangerously in Love.”
