The award-winning singer is celebrating after her new album, Country Girl, went gold in less than 20 hours. The new project was released on Friday, 25 September and it's already a hit. Fans went out in numbers to make sure that they purchase their copies, which resulted in more 20 000 copies being sold. Now Zahara wants to sell 100 000 copies. 

She shared the great news on Facebook. 

Congratulations!

Zahara's success has inspired Nandi Mgoma, who's planning to release an album.
