Disco Diva Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 http://www.billboard.com/column/chartbeat/hooray-for-hollywood-michael-jackson-tops-1005208332.story#/column/chartbeat/hooray-for-hollywood-michael-jackson-tops-1005208332.story Hooray For 'Hollywood': Michael Jackson Tops Dance/Club Play Songs The King reigns again. Michael Jackson leads Billboard's Dance/Club Play Songs chart for the first time in almost 16 years, as "Hollywood Tonight," from his posthumous album "Michael," rises 2-1. With the coronation, the late King of Pop collects his eighth solo No. 1 on the survey, tying him with Enrique Iglesias for most leaders among men in the chart's 35-year history. Prince follows with seven toppers. Madonna leads all artists with 40 Dance/Club Play Songs No. 1s, followed by Jackson's sister Janet (19). Jackson, who passed away June 25, 2009, had last ruled with Janet when their duet "Scream" led the weeks of July 15 and 22, 1995. (Iglesias had claimed a solo share for most Dance/Club Play Songs among solo males when "Tonight (I'm Lovin' You)," featuring Ludacris and DJ Frank E, topped the Feb. 5, 2011, tally. "I am such a big fan of both Prince and Jackson, and to be included in this elite group of artists is such an honor," Iglesias told Billboard at the time. "I've been reading Billboard since I was a child and I'm very proud to be part of music history"). Jackson's 15-year, 11-month break between No. 1s marks the chart's longest since Cyndi Lauper ended a 24-year, three-month gap between "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" (March 24, 1984) and "Same Ol' Story" (June 28, 2008). (Lauper didn't have to wait long for her next No. 1; "Into the Nightlife" followed "Story" to the summit the week of Aug. 30, 2008). Here is a recap of Jackson's eight solo Dance/Club Play Songs No. 1s; he first dominated as a member of the Jacksons, with "Forever Came Today" (four weeks, 1975) and "Lovely One"/"Can You Feel It"/"Walk Right Now" (one week, 1980). (Previously, combinations of album cuts were eligible to chart as one entry). Title, Date reached No. 1, Weeks at No. 1 "Thriller (all cuts)," Jan. 22, 1983, 11 weeks "Tell Me I'm Not Dreamin' (Too Good to Be True)" (Jermaine Jackson & Michael Jackson), June 9, 1984, three weeks "Bad (Remix)," Nov. 7, 1987, two weeks "The Way You Make Me Feel," Jan. 30, 1988, one week "In the Closet," June 13, 1992, one week "Who Is It," May 22, 1993, one week "Scream" (Michael Jackson & Janet Jackson), July 15, 1995, two weeks "Hollywood Tonight," June 11, 2011, one week (to-date) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatOtherFan Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 It was clear I was talking about the video I haven't called MJ a woman in months Hence, the reason I thought you were referring to Mike. Don't act like you're all innocent. So was it necessary for you to indirectly bring more attention to it? I only indirectly brought more attention to something that you initiated. Therefore, if you hadn't brought attention to it from the start, I wouldn't have "indiretly" brought attention to it. LMAO :lol: :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatOtherFan Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 There's no excuse for you being a dumbass and making an ASS out of yourself *blocks your youtube account* You're always making snide remarks about Mike....so it's not big assumption to make that you were being shady to Mike! Speaking of my youtube account...I just uploaded a new video. And you continue to exacerbate the situation. No, I'm not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
