2003 World Music Awards - Chopard Diamond Award

Chopard Diamond Award

The Chopard Diamond award (or simply the Diamond award) is given by the World Music Awards to artists who have sold over 100 million albums during their career. This award is occasionally confused with the previously created RIAA certification of "Diamond," which represents the sale of over ten million copies of an album in the U.S., and was created in 1999, whereas the Chopard Diamond award was created in 2001.

Famous quotes containing the words diamond and/or award:

    I met Jack Kennedy in November, 1946.... We went out on a double date and it turned out to be a fair evening for me. I seduced a girl who would have been bored by a diamond as big as the Ritz.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)
