Katy Perry Scores 6th #1 From ‘Teenage Dream’ Era

Published: Wednesday 22nd Feb 2012 by David

Love her or hate her, there’s no denying Katy Perry’s status as this generation’s single’s Queen.

For today, adding to the 6  US #1s she already has under her belt, her new single ‘Part Of Me’ has topped the Billboard Hot 100,

Details below…

Following her rendition of the track at the 54th Annual Grammys, the single marks yet another smash hit for the star, lifted from her upcoming LP ‘Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection‘.

This, serving as the deluxe edition of 2010’s ‘Teenage Dream’ which spawned 5 #1 singles, which include ‘Last Friday Night’, and ‘California Girls, which both saw Perry match Michael Jackson’s record for having five singles from the same LP, ‘Bad‘,  top the chart.

In other chart news, Nicki Minaj’s ‘Starships‘ debuts at #9 while Chris Brown‘s ‘Turn Up The Music’ storms the digital chart  at #9.

Unfortunately for Madonna, ‘Give Me All Your Luvin’ drops 29 places to #39 while Adele enjoys 3 songs in the top ten, making her the first female ever to have three numbers in the Hot 100’s top 10 concurrently as a lead artist.

Note : #1s from ‘Dream’s deluxe edition will not count towards Perry’s current record.

    You know your headline is not accurate but I’m not surprised you put it up anyway. The note should be at the beginning of the story, not the end. Katy Perry is a talentless singles b*tch and I’m sick of her being shoved down my throat. I can’t wait for this payola princess who sings like she’s constipated to fade. She’s polluting music. I never even listen to the radio anymore because of people like her.

    Wow shes doing good. Go girl. I cant even hate. I need my girl Bey to start making songs again that reach number one. This era she fell flat. I think whenever she relaeses her 5th album she’ll get her mojo back. Cuz we know Bey gort that massive power. so I’ll be waiting. And again good job Katy. All of the songs mentiond are my favs. 😉

  5. oh baby(b****** will deal) February 22, 2012

    damn,Katy is defo coming for Rihanna’s new blonde wig with these #1 singles,she’s gonna become the singles artist of the decade. just 3 more songs to go Katy. and Adele damn mama,i ain’t mad at you 😉 kudos to all 🙂

  6. pat February 22, 2012

    Katy rules hot 100. Adele rules top 200 albums. Your favs have fallen off.

  7. Man-TAK-eee February 22, 2012

    Too bad for Perry. Under BB rules her revamped album mix with new singles cant be considered consecutive; she cant have 7 consecutive #1 BB hot 100 singles. Her streak has stopped. So she has to start again with another at consecutive singles to beat Whitney Houston’s record of #7 consecutives. Awwww… sucks for her – who f****** caressss!!

  8. Glory February 22, 2012

    Hey, you fixed that headline quick but it still isn’t right! 5 questionable #1’s from TD, 1 #1 from the re-release. I reserve the right to be a*** retentive!

  9. Yc18 February 22, 2012

    Adele is slaying the scene and these b****** will DEAL.. Sam why haven’t you mentioned that 19 is also selling …

  10. D.Scott February 22, 2012

    She was so close to getting breaking MJ’s record. Very impressive

  11. Lax February 22, 2012

    +good for you katy keep up the good work.

  12. Nichole February 22, 2012

    Too bad those don’t count towards BB.

    Katy and her label was so desperate to defeat MJ, that they re-released the album just to garner further #1 singles.

    Oh well. Try again, Kate!

  13. xoxo February 22, 2012

    the only song that really deserved to be #1 from that album was the title track “teenage dream” the rest were garbage. she shouts way too much in her music, overrated, overexposed and over it…

  14. Perryperryperry February 22, 2012

    Amazing!!!!! amazing!!!! She is so original, each song is something different and yet they all sound like ear candy! MUCh Love !

  15. IMGUNNACHECKUBOO February 22, 2012

    The b**** can’t move that many albums in a week but her singles sell? Oh well.

  16. number1k9 February 22, 2012

    It’s called:
    Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection

    NOT: The Ultimate Confection.

  17. BAA February 22, 2012

    Lmao @ some of these bandwagon fans of Adele. Fake ass people lol. Im happy for Katy but it amazes me how her and Rihanna are scoring #1s after the other and barely selling albums. I still look at them as pop tarts. To me, its all about building ur craft and becoming Iconic. She may be able to sell singles but her and Rihanna will arent taken serious. Adele is on her second album and already passed her and her buddy as a serious music artist. N the Pop World its still Britney > Christina > Gaga > and the rest. And my bish KING B is Over All!

  18. JohnVidal(RIPWhitney-true great) February 22, 2012

    All I care is WHITNEY HOUSTON is #3 on the HOT100 with “I Will Always Love You” 20 years after its release. I just love real legends
    Do u think any f****** body is going to buy any Katy Perry songs if she dies at 48 years old (which means in 30 years)???

  19. BeyonceStan February 22, 2012

    How much did she discount this one for? This b**** is so desperate and the 5 #1s that she does have she got em by discounting and remixing , they shouldn’t even count because MJ didn’t do either.

  20. Frachella February 22, 2012

    She is so desperate~!

  21. JER February 22, 2012

    That’s how you pay the rent, gorls. No excuses, just smashes. Where are BeYAWNce’s singles on the Hot 100 this week?

  22. MT February 22, 2012

    MJ broke records because his singles were quality and people actually played them on radio. With this digital download b*******, anyone can get a number 1 single – even for a week – and they think its suffice for bragging rights… SMDH.

    MJ is probably in heaven and happy he’s out of the music biz.

    @Nichole
    Capitol Records planned to do a re-release before the MJ record so BOOM b****.

  24. Small_Angel February 22, 2012

    congrats katy

  25. $$$$$$ (Dollar$ign$kills) February 22, 2012

    Congrats to Katy

  26. ChristinasCOMING February 22, 2012

    Something is fishy. How in the hell did this song just debut at #1 I’m the Hot 100 while simultaneously sliding down to #4 on itunes within just hours?

  27. ROYALACE February 23, 2012

    @Beyoncestan, Mad cause BeYaki couldn’t do it? Mad cause America supported Teenage Dream and shunned 4closure? Not even the dogs use. Stay angry h**.

    CONGRATS KATY!!!!!!! Making these girls huff and puff in anger clonking their fat sausage link fingers on the keyboard while you makin’ money gorl!!!!!!! YASSS!!!

  28. L21480 February 23, 2012

    I’m not at all impressed by these digi #1’s. They’re too easy to come by when you appeal to 14 year old girls and college age gay men who have nothing better to do than to browse iTunes on their phone. Get back to me when Katy sells at least 2 million physical copies of an album in the U.S.

    In the meantime, Billboard need to change the Hot 100 rules so that airplay becomes a more dominate factor in chart placing. Who the hell has even heard that Katy Perry song? I haven’t. It’s #1 because her silly little minions flocked to iTunes. The general public couldn’t even hum it if they had to.

  29. Oh Word?! February 23, 2012

    I dont understand how Katy Perry could break Mj’s record. Man its the end of time for real. No way tht candy coated pop crap is better than THRILLER. and Adele, who in the Hell is still buying this album?! Something does not sound right!
