DJ Y2K Malone™ Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Katy Perry becomes the first female artist in 11 years to take three straight radio singles from an album to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, as "Firework" lifts 2-1. She first topped the chart in June for six weeks with "California Gurls," featuring Snoop Dogg. That was followed by a two-week stay at the top in September with "Teenage Dream," the title track from her former No. 1 Billboard 200 set, which was recently bestowed a Grammy nomination for album of the year. Firework" sizzles at the top of Digital Songs for a second week with 212,000 downloads (down 9%), according to Nielsen SoundScan, while ranking as the week's top Airplay Gainer with a 12-8 lift on Radio Songs, up 25% to 83.3 million listener impressions, according to Nielsen BDS. Last week's No. 1, P!nk's "Raise Your Glass," drops to No. 2, while Rihanna continues to climb back up the list (5-3) with her former chart-topper "What's My Name?," featuring Drake. : The Black Eyed Peas improve 9-4 with "The Time (Dirty Bit)" as the title moves into the runner-up slot on Digital Songs with 198,000 (up 10%). Their new album "The Beginning" starts at No. 6 on the Billboard 200, with 119,000. http://www.billboard.com/news/katy-perry-s-firework-shines-over-hot-100-1004133974.story#/news/katy-perry-s-firework-shines-over-hot-100-1004133974.story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwistedElegance™ Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 'Firework' is awful, she shouts the whole thing, but yeah, congrats. And I completely agree about 'Peacock'. That's the worst song on her album. It's not cute, it's not funny and it's just so unsubtle. Barf @ it being the next single. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwistedElegance™ Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 By the way, that will mean the Hot 100 has had six No. 1s in as many weeks. Damn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Y2K Malone™ Posted December 10, 2010 Author Share Posted December 10, 2010 it's funny that the so called lesser can get multiple #1's and the so call greats can only pull one per album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
