When it comes to purchasing singles, very few can match the powers of Rihanna’s UK navy.
For, as a way of thanking for her delivering a number of show stopping dates in the country within the last few weeks, they have taken her latest single ‘We Found Love‘ back to #1.
Full story below…
Beating JLS‘ ‘Take A Chance On Me‘ to the top spot, the single returned to #1 after spending last week at #2.
Meanwhile, Nicki Minaj‘s ‘Super Bass‘ climbs up by four spaces to #35 this week after making its debut on the chart exactly seven months ago, now two places Lady GaGa‘s ‘Edge Of Glory‘ which resides at the #37 spot.
At #61 is Katy Perry‘s ‘The One That Got Away‘ which is expected to score a higher position next week after the release of its supporting video two days ago.
On the album’s front, Cher Lloyd‘s ‘Sticks & Stones’ makes it debut at #4 placing it 5 places above Adele‘s ‘21′ which holds court at #9 this week after 42 weeks on the chart.
Congratulations to all!

@JON, True. lol how much is platinum in the U.K. now? 20,000? lol Still, GET IT RILAH.
Congratulations
Even this new album SUCKS major ASS !
The cheeky girls never made number one. I know what your thinkng.. they were robbed.
Its actually 300,000, you have to sell more than 300,000 singles or albums to be certified platinum
The uk’s number one album is SUSAN BOYLE!!!!
@ Taylor Swifts Number 1 Fan
Does it look like we care ?????
@jamir21
Someone might. You can’t speak for everyone. I bet you have susan boyle on repeat.
Cher Lloyds album will be 40 next week trust me lol shes a flop
Ri coming for your flop faves with TTT
😉
Ri>>>>FIST CLOWN, Discount Perry, BLEACHonce & OBESEdele
I like 6 songs out of her new album…I’m sure the rest will grow on me. Sam this Suntrust popup on the bottom of the page is so f****** annoying! but i will deal coz i love your blog.
The UK is a big music Market…
I can’t believe how ignorant to the world some of you are….she went 5x platinum (1.5million) there…
Its way more important to be a INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR (Beyonce, Rihanna, Gaga) than a local artist (Nicki Minaj, Ke$ha) Trust me. The only time its fine being a local artist is when you’re selling like Taylor Swift.
rihanna>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
ur fav betta hold that weave when where have you been and roc me gets released!!

Yes so this n**** knows what his talking about But i would also add Katy perry to the line up of Locals
@ Taylor Swifts Number 1 Fan
No the F*** i dont !
Yes Rihanna, Britney, Beyonce, Gaga (soon to be Nicki) are GLOBAL ARTISTS !
Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Kesha, LMFAO are LOCAL !
HATERS … STAY MAD
@jamir21
Katy Perry, Kesha, LMFAO have all had number 1’s in the uk… so how can they be local?
Also Taylor may be local.. but 5 million plus of her newest album… I doubt she’ll care.
rihanna is doing VERY well there.
and DEATh @ someone trying to shade the UK charts when one of the most successful songs in Billboard historih is the Macarena…spending 14 weeks ontop of the HOT100.
does that discredit the chart? no….
does it define american taste in music? besides those 14 weeks….no.
Riri is slaying the UK…and it is a VERY important market, in fact…for most US pop/RnB acts…it is the next biggest place to clock sales.
That Rihanna Reign….you know the rest 😉
LMFAO is garbage
KeSha is garbage
Katy is garbage
They will never ever reach the mega star status of BEYONCE, RIHANNA, BRITNEY, GAGA !
@Taylor Swift Number 1 Fan
dont bother with Jamir, hes a delusional child
Actually As of August 2011, Taylors new album has sold over 5.5 million copies worldwide.
@LTM Haha. Alright I wont bother:)
@ Taylor Swift Number 1 Fan
Nobody cares call me when she wins 16 grammys and 18 billboard awards
Anyway I am trying out new names
@Keeron & Imgunnachecku
A platinum album is 300,000 in the UK
But a platinum singleis 600,000.
@Sam,
The Rihanna Navy is also on point when it comes to their album buying owers. I know u were tryna shade but fact is Loud is still top20 a year later & 5 platinum certification later.
GET IT RIHANNA, GET IT!
i think this one
@jamir21
Lmao. since when do awards matter above sales? Grammies mean next to nothing. They are chosen by a few people, album sales are made up of milliions.
Point made!!!
Gold in Argentina
3x platinum in Australia
Gold in Austria
Gold in Belgium
Platinum in Brazil
2x platinum in Canada
Platinum in Europe
Platinum in France
Gold in the Middle East
Gold in Germany
2x platinum in Ireland
Gold in Mexico
Gold in Italy

Sam is so PRESSED that is HOME country goes so hard for Rihanna lol
@Jamir21
So much negativity in you, really not healthy
@LTM

Last year he horrible duet with Weepy ….opps I men Drake MIRACULOUSLY jumped from #69 to #1 in 0ne week just before she released LOUD!…LOL Is anyone really surprised? If so, I own both the London Bridge and the Empire State Building. I’d love to sell them to you! 🙂

@Jamirh
Katy Perry is not local.
Nicki Minaj 1.7 Million sold in the USA & 200K sold overseas.
Katy Perry 1.7 Million sold in the US & 1.8 Million sold overseas.
Are seriously telling me that u can t see the difference?
Britney`s accomplishments:
Her debut “…Baby One More Time” debuted at number 1 on Canadian and U.S. charts. In The U.S., it stayed there for six weeks. The single with the same name went number 1 world-wide, including the U.S. and U.K. Spears broke the record for the youngest artist, at age 17, to have his or her first single reach #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart with “…Baby One More Time”. Spears also broke the record for the youngest artist, at age 17, to have his or her first single and first album simultaneously reach #1 on the Billboard charts. Her album later gave hits like “Sometimes” (top 30), “(You Drive Me) Crazy” ,and “From The Bottom Of My Broken Heart” (top 20). ” Born To Make You Happy”, was released outside the US and went to #1 in the UK. The album …Baby One More Time is to date the best-selling album by a teenager, with over 14 million copies sold in the US and over 22 million worldwide. It is the 24th best selling album in the U.K. ever!
Her follow-up album, Oops!… I Did It Again, released on May 16, 2000, also debuted at #1 in the US and Canada, and was a similarly huge hit. It sold over 1.3 million units its first week in the US, making it the fastest-selling album by a female artist. The album has sold over 10 million copies in the US alone and over 18 million worldwide. Singles off the album include “Oops…I “id It Again”, which was a top 10 hit in the US and a #1 in several countries around the world, the top 30 “Lucky” and the top 20 “Stronger”. Another single, “Don’t Let Me Be The Last To Know” was also released, but failed to achieve much success.
Following the success of her first two albums, Spears’ career skyrocketed, and a multimillion-dollar spokesperson ads came up. Her most popular ads were for Pepsi, for which she earned a reported $7-$8 million. During this time, Spears also branched out as an author by co-writing a novel with her mother Lynne called Britney Spears’ Heart to Heart. She also released the follow-up novel; this one was called “A Mother’s Gift”.
Her next album, Britney, was released in November 2001, and again debuted at #1 on both the US and Canadian charts, selling over 740,000 units its first week in the US. This made her the only female artist in SoundScan history to have her first three albums debut at #1. The top 30 hit “I’m A S**** 4 U”, was produced by The Neptunes. Other singles included “I’m Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman”, “Overprotected”, “Boys”, and “I Love Rock ‘N Roll”. Though these tracks did well internationally, they all failed to make much of a stir on US radio (due to a problem with ClearChannel). Over 4.5 million copies of Britney have been sold in the US alone, and the album went on to sell over 11 million copies worldwide. She then starred in Crossroad, which went to number 2 at the box office and making over $100 million.
Her fourth album, In the Zone, was released in November, 2003. The album took in lesser-known producers such as RedZone, as well as such big names as Moby and R. Kelly. Spears co-wrote eight of the album’s thirteen songs. Zone rose straight to the top of the US album charts in its debut week, making Spears the only female in music history to have her first four albums debut at #1. The album’s first single, “Me Against the Music” only went top 40 in the US, though it was a #1 hit in many other countries around the world. “Toxic”, became a worldwide and #1 hit in over twenty different countries, and went to number 9 in the U.S. “Everytime” was only a top 20 hit in the US, it was a #1 hit overseas in such countries as the UK and Australia. In The Zone, however, has sold over 3 million copies in the US and close to 8 million copies worldwide. The day before the release of In The Zone, Spears received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Her tour, The Onyx Hotel Tour, grossed over $34 million dollars and was seen by over 600,000 fans in North America and Europe. It ended up being one of the best selling tours of the year. If not cancelled, it would have easily been very close to being the top selling tour of 2004. This is not including her other huge money-making amazing tours. In September 2004, Forbes estimated Spears’ net worth at $125 million USD.
She released her first hits collection, Greatest Hits: My Prerogative, on November 9, 2004. The album debuted at #4 in the US charts, selling over 255,000 copies in its first week of release. As of Spring 2005, the set has sold over 1 million copies in the US and over 5 million copies worldwide. Spears also notched up the biggest-selling first week for a greatest hits compilation by a female artist in UK chart history (115,341 copies), smashing the first-week sales of previous high-profile collections from Whitney Houston, Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Céline Dion, Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson and Shania Twain
She then released her first fragrance, “Curious”, in September. “Curious” is currently ranked the #1 fragrance in department stores. The fragrance had the biggest debut in sales in history from Elizabeth Arden. Spears is expected to earn a reported $12 million from the fragrance. In addition, the scent ended up as the #1 fragrance of 2004 in department stores, and in 2005, “Curious” was honored by the Fragrance Foundation, naming it Best Women’s Fragrance.
Her 50+ awards she has one including the best, A Grammy, for “Toxic” as Best Dance Recording. She was also nominated for 6 other Grammy’s.
Her Video’s and DVD’s together sold over 14X platinium. 4 of the 6 went to #1 in the U.S.
She is the best-selling female artist of the still-running decade and century and has sold a RIAA-certified 32 million albums in the US and 75 millions worldwide
Destiny’s Child so many memories, oh my teens days.

________________________________________________________________________
All the beystans always find themselves on every rih post cuz they insecure with the success of 4 so any opportunity they get to drag rih and her success the jump rite on it
i was also reading a review of TTT on FB from a music site that loves Britney and they said that rihanna wouldnt get her first #1 album because of the competition she face but he also mention that alot of Bey stan are going to buy MJG album for spite…..i laugh when i saw it but its so true
@Jamir
The question could be asked the other way around.
Will Beyonce, Rihanna & Britney ever accomplished what Katy has just done?
Like having 5 #1s of 1 album.
Don’t give me wrong, I am navy all the way,but i don t think that Katy should be put down.
She’s a sweet girl, always praising her peers & her fans are very respectful and never starts drama.
Now I know I didnt just see someone put Rihanna up there with Britney and Beyonce
@Jamir
Katy Perry got 5 #1s off one album. Rihanna, the #1 queen has yet to accomplish that. And those facts you posted about Bey and Brit, when will Rihanna or Nicki accomplish that?
where have you been will be number 1 worldwide for a while! cockiness is really amazing too. you da one is good, talk that talk is great, we found love is number one worldwide,birthday cake is yummy minus the profanity, roc me out and watch and learn are good drunk on love is great we all want love has Justin bieber on it, and farewell is good. this album might just be better than rated
R. TTT > Rated R > LOUD > gggb
@KERRON
I don’t care about a number one album, in the time of Elvis Presley, singles where more important than album, today with the albums poor sales it seems that we aere returning to those times, and Rihanna beat it in this.
@ Ledgetina4life
Will Christina ever accomplish what Bey and Brit did ??????
Ask yourself while do some more posting !
Rihanna has the gurls upset once again. Not surprised!
Ummm it’s not Rihanna’s fans buying singles weeks after the song came out… it’s the general public
@Jamir21
Lmao!! Darling your pathetic. You realize your faves Rihanna and Nicki are inferior to Queentina so you try with Beyonce and Britney. Sorry but Christina shits on all your faves. Look at Christina’s talent then look at Britneys. Look at Christina’s album sales then look at Beyonces. They are inferior to Chrissy. Sorry 😉
LOLOL that girl Cher lloyd only debuted at #4??? These untalented chicks can´t sell albums even if their lifes depended on it.
As for Rihanna, yes we know what a crap generic song can do for you these days on singles charts, specially on the UK ones. She keeps being a joke with or whithout her undeserving #1´son singles. Each and every other star could do it releasing those type of songs. Thing is most of the rest have a little respect for artistry and want to be known for being good at something (oopps I forgot Rihanna can´t do anything even if she´d try)
@legendtina4life
Nobody can compare to true greatness ala Mariah, Whitney, etc, … but Christina Aguilera definitely is a better artist than Britney, Rihanna, Nicki and all that crap. No matter if she sold more or less than them (only Britney did anyway) cos she is more real, have a voice (often sounding not very good but also stunning at times) and she has a respectable career, it´s not a puppet, knows how to talk, etc, etc
I swear these nowadays kids are pathetic. Hell when I was a kid I didn´t like crap just cos I was a kid. My first idol was Tina f****** Turner when I was 5 years old, and then Whitney and Mariah, and Celine became my favorites. So these retarded kids liking Rihanna have not a excuse, not even if they are 13 years old, they will always be pathetic it seems
@JOHNVIDAL
I hate people like you Why must you QUESTION who people stan???
People have different taste. what you call Talent/Greatness can be what another person calls TRASH. Why must you come on every rihanna post writing essay’s on how much you hate her and how you don’t understand why people like her.
Rihanna is an International star
6MILLION ppl got the LOUD CD
Your opinion < ———- 6million people music taste
somebody who is untalented does not achieve the things rihanna do. If rihanna is not your taste it's ok but you do not have to express your dislike 4 her on every post dame
THEY MAD THAT RIHANNA GAME
TAKING OVER YOUR EMPIRE
I’m sick of Rihanna and Beyonce stans posting all this b******* about what these media whores have achieved! All of you children need to grow up and learn what REAL music is! Music just isn’t what it use to be! Rihanna and beyonce has nothing but t*** fans that are ignorant towards other artists and know s*** about what good music is! All of you idiots need to get a life! It’s always (my fav this and my fav that) back in the day this s*** was unheard of! All it was, was good music and great artists that had no beef with each other!
Well congrats Rihanna….but I would prefer if Rihanna started to create more mature music……I don’t really care about #1 singles.
@JOHNVIDAL I 100% agree with you even though im probably a couple years older….lol
@ Johvidal
Nobody gives a F*** about your CHILDHOOD !
@ Yellow Gorilla
PREACH !!!!!!!!!!!
@ Classy_Guy
I dont give a F*** about no damn Patti Labelle, Diana Ross, Areatha Franklin,
Prince, Stevie Wonder, Barry White (r.i.p.), The O`Jays, Al Green !!!
They are not my cup of tea…..so i will be listening to Beyonce and Rihanna til I DIE !
RIHANNA = 11 NUMBER ONE HOT 100 SINGLES – IN THIRD PLACE AS THE FEMALE ARTIST WITH THE MOST NUMBER ONE SINGLES IN AMERICAN CHART HISTORY
KATY PERRY = 6 NUMBER ONE SINGLES & 5 NUMBER ONES OFF OF ONE ALBUM
BEYONCE = 4 CONSECUTIVE NUMBER ONE ALBUMS, WITH EACH GROSSING OVER 300,000 UNITS IN THEIR DEBUT WEEK – NO OTHER ARTIST HAS DONE THIS BESIDES MICHAEL JACKSON & THE MOST SUCCESSFUL FEMALE ARTIST OF THE 21ST CENTURY, ACCORDING TO THE R.I.I.A – THIS SPANS ACROSS AL BILLBOARD CHARTS & FORMATS.
BRITNEY SPEARS = HAS SOLD 23 MILLION ALBUM UNITS THIS DECADE WITH 32 MILLION UNITS ALTHOGETHER – THE MOST BY A FEMALE PERFORMER (INCLUDING BEYONCE)
NICKI MINAJ = THE MOST SUCCESSFUL DEBUT RAP ALBUM BY A FEMALE IN BILLBOARD HISTORY – IN SECOND PLACE FOR THE MOST SUCCESSFUL FEMALE RAP SONG IN BILLBOARD HISTORY (BEHIND MISSY ELLIOT)
______
THEY “ALL” HAVE GAINED THEIR INDIVIDUAL SUCCESSES THAT THE OTHER WILL NEVER SURASS!!! THEY ALL HAVE THEIR OWN INDIVIDUAL ACHEIVEMENTS!!!
@jamir We already had this conversation before! You’re 13 and still sucking on the nipple so anything you think you know is irrelevant! You’re coming up in a time where music is at it’s worst and it’s not your fault so I’m not going to waist my time arguing with you!
@YELLOW GORILLAH
HEY BOO … & YOU BETTER PREACH THAT S***!!!
“6MILLION ppl got the LOUD CD
Your opinion < ———- 6million people music taste"
^^^ I KNOW THATS RIGHT^^^
@jamir21: I LOVE BEYONCE,RIH,BRIT & NICKI
You are a BIG joke! I already saw you commenting on Gaga´s performance saying she was doing nothing. Hell what the f*** can your favorites Britney and Rihanna do??? LOLOL
@classy_guy
I totally agree with your comment too! As for the age… I don´t think you are older 🙂
@Yellow Gorillah
It´s not our fault you stan for crap. And it´s not the usual but sometimes untalented people achieve succes (only for a while). Look at Milli Vanilli or Britney Spears (although she at least could dance in the past)
@ Classy_Guy
Look didnt the 70s had terrible music ?????
Didnt the 80s had terrible music ?????
Didnt the 90s had terrible music ????
I bet when you was my age your parents didnt like your music back then !
@ Johnvidal
Look b**** since you dont like Rihanna and Britney and Nicki that means
other people cant like them !!!!
The world doesnt revolve around you…you know ????
Everybody doesnt like Beyonce
Everybody doesnt like Mariah
Everybody doesnt like Whitney
etc.,
@CLASSY GUY
ONE OF YOUR ARGUMENTS WAS THAT “WHO CARES ABOUT THESE MEDIA WHORES ACHIEVEMENTS” – WELL, IN THAT CASE, IF YOU’RE A TRUE MUSIC LOVER YOU WOULD KNOW THAT THE SAME THING APPLIED WITH THESE “LEGENDS BELOW”…

MARIAH WAS CONSISTENTLY DOGGED FOR SOUNDING TOO BLACK, BEING AN ATENTION SEEKER & OVER SINGING
WHITNEY WAS CONSISTENTLY DOGGED FOR SOUNDING TOO WHITE, POMPOUS & ARROGANT AND OVERSINGING
MICHAEL WAS CONSISTENTLY DOGGED FOR SOUNDING TOO WHITE & WAS ONCE CITED BY ONE CRITIC AS NOT HAVING ENOUGH MUSICAL ELEVATION LIKE ALA “PRINCE”.
PRINCE WAS CONSISTENTLY DOGGED FOR SOUNDING TOO WHITE, NOT BEING INFLUENTIAL ENOUGH LIKE MICHAEL & USING THE SAME SOUNDS IN HIS MUSIC
CELINE WAS CONSISTENTLY DOGGED FOR BEING A COPYCAT OF WHITNEY AND MARIAH
CHAKA WAS CONSISTENTLY DOGGED FOR SOUNDING TOO BLACK AND NOT BEING VERSATILE ENOUGH
BARBRA WAS CONSISTENTLY DOGGED FOR OVERSINGING, BEING AN ATTENTION SEEKER…

WHAT WE ARGUE BOUT TODAY, IN TERMS OF WHO’S BETTER = BEYONCE, KATY ETC…” IS WHAT MY PARENTS GENERATION WERE ARGUING ABOUT WITH THOSE 20TH CENTURY ARTISTS” … MUSIC CHANGES, OPINIONS CHANGE, TIMES CHANGE – WHAT, DO YOU THINK MUSIC SHOULD STAY THE SAME??????????????
@ Jake
PREACH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@jamir No i don’t think music should change, what i do think is that you should consider climbing back into the wound and crawl back out with some since!
@jamir21
Yes the 70´s, 80´s and 90´s also had bad music (not as much as the 00´s at all). It´s just that now it´s Rihanna and the likes turn of representing that bad music of this era. Do you get it? Yes not everbody likes the same but you should admit you stan for crap. It´s not a problem you like crap and stan for it. I´m ok with it. Just don´t try to make things what they are not. Some people are talented even if you don´t like it and some others aren´t but you can like them. I mean, Beatles have never been my cup of tea, but did I ever say they are boring, irrelevant, non talented, or something? No kid it´s known fact they are kings. It´s a known fact Mariah Whitney and others are true greats. And it´s a known fact Rihanna has not any type of talent. You can like her but don´t try to fool yourself. Repeat with me: ” I like Rihanna but I know she is crap”! See? it´s that easy. Lesson learned. Now go to bed if you are in Europe. It´s too late for kids
@Jake
Oh please don´t even put those legendary names and then Katy Perry and Rihanna in the same comment. Just don´t
@ johnvidal
Just repeat “I am a pressed b**** but I cant help it because my daddy didnt f*** me right when I was a kid” see its that easy…isnt it !
@ Classy_Guy
What I think is that you should get with the times or get LEFT BEHIND !
@JOHNVIDAL
I love your comment on Christina. I love Tina and Whitney too, and I love Mariah Careys voice just not her. I love Beyonce too, but I’ll drag her when her stans try to put her above Xtina. You shouldnt bother with these children, they wouldnt know talent if it bit them in the ass.
You pressed old b****** make me sooooooooooo SAD !

I hate people like you Why must you QUESTION who people stan???
People have different taste. what you call Talent/Greatness can be what another person calls TRASH. Why must you come on every rihanna post writing essay’s on how much you hate her and how you don’t understand why people like her.
Rihanna is an International star
6MILLION ppl got the LOUD CD
Your opinion < ———- 6million people music taste
somebody who is untalented does not achieve the things rihanna do. If rihanna is not your taste it's ok but you do not have to express your dislike 4 her on every post dame
THEY MAD THAT RIHANNA GAME
TAKING OVER YOUR EMPIRE
