Regine Should Have Also Received A 'Diamond Record' Award



R2K is the tenth studio album of Regine Velasquez released in 1999. The album consists of various covers and contains her most famous cover to date, "On The Wings of Love" and "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing".

The album reached more than 300,000 units in 2000. It was announced on 2001 that the album reached 10x Platinum.This was also her best selling album to date going 12x platinum.

A Diamond Record Award is given to an artist whose album has surpassed the 10x Platinum mark.

Eraserheads and Jose Mari Chan were the only Filipinos to have received a Diamond Record, and Nina achieved this status recently on her album ‘Nina Live!’ album sold for 200,000 copies.

Viva Records standard on giving platinum awards on album is 30K and was not even adjusted to 20K....but still, R2K reached its standards more than that and yet, VIVA Records didn't recognize it.

To all of us fans, Regine Velasquez deserves to be the first female performer to receive the 'Diamond Record' award!

  5. wala tayong kaalam alam dito....umabot ba talaga ng 12x paltinum? kasi ibig sabihin million copies yun that time! o baka naman naaward sya pero di lang na-publicize, o baka pwede rin na pinagtataguan ng Viva ang BIR ahahaha! pinaka maganda siguro ang tanungin eh si SongBird na o ang Viva! xD...

    nga pala bukod sa Ehead, Mr.JM Chan and Nina, April Boy Regino also received a diamond award, million sales yun xD.

    sa totoo lang nagulat ako ng 200k nalang ang Diamond award ngayon!

    Dapat talaga ma-award yung Diamond kay Regine!!!!

  12. kelan p ung album ni nina at sinama ang sales til now. Samantalang ung kay regine, less than two yrs lang ata na-achieve na ung ganung sales.

    Saka isa pa, ung "my love emotion, japan edition" ni regine. it sold millions of copy in japan alone. im jst not sure where to find the credits for that. sya lang filipino na naka kuha nun.
    regine deserves that because thats the fact na naka benta ng album si regine. at during the r2k yrs, sunod sunod din kaya album nya.

  14. i think ung R2K, if it increases its sales to another 20K units for the next months/years, dun na siguro bibigyan c regine ng diamond.

  15. this is what to do: buy her previous albums like R2K, Covers vol. 1, Drawn, etc. so that it will reach another 20K units (platinum status) that will add up to her previous album certification. Then, the number of units sold will be divided again by (20,000) to recompute and update the certification.

    yun, sigurado yung R2K will be the best-selling album by a female artist EVER in the Philippines!!!

  17. I ALMOST HAVE ALL HER ALBUMS. I REALLY LOVE ALL HER SONGS. TALAGANG VERSATILE SI REGINE WHEN IT COMES TO SINGING TECHNIQUES. SINO BANG FEMALE ARTIST IN THE PHILIPPINES WHO WAS ABLE TO SELL ALBUMS IN ASIA? SI REGINE LANG. SHE WAS ALSO INTERVIEWED IN CCN TALK ASIA IN 2OO2. SHE WAS A SUPERSTAR KASI IN ASIA AT THAT TIME. NAPUTOL LANG WHEN SHE LEFT POLYDOR RECORDS.
