The 2012 honors for Adele keep rolling in. After winning big at the Grammys and being named Billboard's artist of the year, Adele now has been voted AP's Entertainer of the Year. Her album "21" stayed on top of the charts a lot of the year, but she didn't release a new album or go on tour. She did voice the theme for the new James Bond flick "Skyfall." "21" officially reached diamon status this year, passing more than 10 million copies sold.
