If this week’s Billboard Hot 100 is anything to go by, public has clearly forgiven Fergie for the musical misstep that was last year’s ‘L.A. Love.’
For, as the refreshed chart shows, the pop-rapper – whose latest number ‘M.I.L.F.$’ is rumored to be the kickoff of her long-awaited sophomore album ‘Double Dutchess’ – found herself nabbing her career best debut chart placement.
Indeed, after unveiling the tune’s accompanying video (featuring cameos from Ciara, Kim Kardashian, Chrissy Teigen, and more), the song raked in an impressive 65,000 sold its premiere week.
Curious to know where this handsome sum, in addition to its streaming, helped land it on this week’s Drake-led Hot 100? Tuck in below to find out:
Hot 100 This Week
Fergie scores a solo career-best debut rank on the Hot 100, as ” M.I.L.F.$” starts at No. 34. On the Digital Songs sales chart, it begins at No. 5 with 65,000 first-week downloads sold in the week ending July 7, according to Nielsen Music.

She needs to start promoting it! The song is too d@mn hot to flop!
Katy, rihanna, Britney
Everyone’s coming to end Lemonades short lived singles ❤
Kiii what number is sorry at this week?
Sorry is #27 sis kiii decline even with added video streams she can’t get top 20 ???
Don’t you idiots think if Beyonce gave a flying fuxk about singles she’d put that s*** on Spotify? Like… do ya’ll lack basic thinking capabilities?
Haha tragic the hive should be embarrassed
Y’all are petty AF
Especially since both of their faves couldn’t chart to save their lives.
But we all know the only success Keri had was ending her own career after a failed attempt at trying to end Beyoncé’s right sis?
Ki how are Keri and Natalie doing?
Has the retired talent show judge ever charted in the US?
Has Keri ever charted outside the slums of Atlanta?? Where’s that album everybody is anticipated for?? ???
Where did Free Weezy chart?
It was a free mixtape put on Tidal u dumb c***. Now where’s Keri long awaited album at?
Girl why is Keri releasing on soundcloud tho?
fans of flops are so brave its hilarious
looks like Britney and Katy will be blocking a certain cretin from going #1
Girl your fav can’t even make top 20 you have bigger concerns.
poor you
Screams@molly
Currently it’s out of the iTunes 100 in the US…
and your irrelevant a$s is not even on Top 100 TGJ commenters
.
#bye
Work work still top 20 almost half a year later #thatreign
if this is a reign , then the music industry has gone to the dogs.
.
Work -1,6 m (9 weeks #1)
.
Anti – 480k (2 weeks #1)
.
half a year later….
.
slayage right?
.
#meh
.
that life support oxygen for her career is left with 1 bar, then its planet irrelevant forever and beyond from there
You tried it. Work has sold 5 million worldwide more than all Lemonade singles combined..
Plus, ANTI is the 5th best selling album of the year(US) as of right now. She’s fine
Go catch some zebra or somthing for dinner sis
Not “Work” selling more records worldwide than Keri’s entire discography
.
now catch that
Girl stop the lies while your ahead the bubbling under calling don’t come for rih when your fav flippity flop off the charts
And after half a year, Rihanna still isn’t anywhere close to selling an actual million copies of that album its cut from. 😆 Embarrassing. #thatreign
Not Work outcharting Sorry. Not Needed Me outcharting Sorry. And TIWYCF. That’s three singles @African s****
The hive+ needs to stop trying to hide behind Katy because either way at the end of her era you know she’ll have a #1. Rihanna has her #1 already. Where’s yonces?
You should be sending for S.W.A.T to find Keri
.
I last saw/heard of her in 2011
.
I go to club , I don’t hear her
I watch music channels , I don’t see her
.
I read blogs I don’t see posts about her
.
I check charts , she’s not there
.
I visit record stores shes not available
.
What happened my friend? ???
Sis worry about Sorry free falling on iTunes and the Hot 100
Also worry about the ecoli in your village
Where is flopmation and Sorryflop??
Where are Rihanna’s tour dates stopping this week? Costco and Walmart parking lots? You part time at the latter as a janitor, maybe you can catch one of her badly performed shows while you’re grabbing those shopping carts! >:)
Look at the deflection. lol, the subjest of this post is singles chatting and we don’t see Beysic singles on here. I would say hits, but clearly… nevermind. #SorryNotSorry
Um, no you silly obvious homosexual, you…the subject of this post is actually Fergie. Since you went off topic, I’ll bring up Rihanna’s failing tour and the flop album it’s not helping.
@Marsha
Are u blind? Beyonce isn’t the topic of this post ya dumb f***, fergie is lol. You can bash Beyonce’s single’s but don’t want any body bringing up the AUNTI album or tour….
Silly f***, the title of this post is Chart Check [Hot 100]:
.
It been that way for months, yet you pest are bringing up the only thing a Pest and stan for, tours. Well you just bring that knife to a gun fight. #HowDumbAreTheseGirls #WhereAreTheFathers
We stuck on tours again b**** rih made more money than Beyonce this year all the pop princesses made more than your so call queen of tours I digress Kim k came close to bey in earnings damn even little selena gomez pass bey on onstagram bloop you haters need to remove the word queen from beyonce title she queen of nothing everyone kick her ass
Stop bringing up her tours and answer the question.Where are kool-aid’s hits?
The hives are pathetic they are the first ones coming for other artist when the so call queen can’t get a number one their excuse is Beyonce have not released it on Spotify maggots need to learn it still would not chart no one cares period the fight with calvin and Taylor got more hits than sorry
Fergie is coming to reclaim her throne. Watch out Rihanna, Beyonce, Britney and Katy
The reach!
.
You should have said Miley, Iggy, Ariana, Keri, Jessie J, Gwen Stefani (catch my drift?)
No bum! Fergie is slaying
I tried to help a struggling bxtch
.
Good luck taking this song past #30 on Hot100
This will hit #1 mark. My words hater!!!
I won’t drag you for that pathetic statement
Nowadays is very easy for young artist to DEBUT high in the chart and even at #1. And even with that into account it doesn´t even happen that often due to their mediocrity and their lack of real selling power. Imagine how successful the artists in the 90s were when they debuted so high without nowadays easy rules.
Congrats to Fergie, although the song is crap and it won´t have staying power.
Still living in the past I see. Hahahahahaha
But sis aren’t you? Aaliyah has been gone for 15 years now
Yep, I’m a fan of her legacy. How’s Cherry Coke’s 11th marriage? Flop music career, flop judging gig and now flopped relationships. lol
That tired read isn’t even funny sis. True tea is you seething over a girl that died 15 years ago. That’s living in the past ☕️☕️☕️
Why you talk about the damn 90s so much?
Is it not that a decade where Fergus career was last seen alive?
LA Loves platinum plaque says hello. Wasn’t that the last time Beyonce had a #1 hit?
Does fergus have one to begin with?
She has 9 of them. You mad punk?
Name them
How about you research them since your so press????
@Infertile stan Bey has 9 also. In fact her last one was two years after your flop fave’s last one. Furthermore, for bey to be a “flop singles artist” her singles have been way more successful tham fergie.
I see Rihanna’s name haven’t left the top 10 since Feb. Where is the so called queen that was suppose to STOP Rihanna? Love that Rihanna can top and chart all charts. Not a lot of artist can do that.

And I see you still haven’t gotten a grammar coach
How can he afford one while he’s busy spending on Lukhas on Charterbate?
I see Cherry @ssBoom still haven’t gotten a vocal coach. I guess you actually need a voice in order to train it I guess.
Sis none of your faves are known for their vocals tho ????
Rhianna couldnt even go platinum without Samsung. Sit yo ass down
Seriously. Has that that wh(o)res album even manage to sell 500k yet? Nobody’s buying it. If they’re not willing to spend $10 for a CD, it’s no wonder they’re not paying $11 to hear her croak on stage. So embarrassing.
Platinum is platinum. That applies to DOUBLE platinum as well. Oh, where is Kool-HairWhip doube plat plaque?
Lemonade outsold AUNTI stupid.
That’s really great. I love Fergie, but I still haven’t forgiven her for purposely using Ciara for the “urban” scene in the music video. Anyway, I see the song falling off the chart soon. No shade, but we all know that if radio isn’t picking the single up, then it’s already DOA.
Ciara should be happy she was in the video period
http://gifrific.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/drpepper-forest-gump.gif
Y’all really think that because Work has sold a few million that Rih is still reigning? Bish bye! Anti hasn’t even sold 500k in the US and Adele crushed her, Bey, and Taylor in sales and records- even beating her own records!
ANTI SOLD 1MILLION+ WW in pure sales
Anti sold 1million+ usa with sps
Anti it’s certified 2*plat by the Riaa
Anti have commerciale single succes : work and needed me
Anti world tour slay
Adele succes it’s all about hype and because she’s …
Where is Xtina on the charts? Is Lotus certified?
OFF TOPIC:
Was just listening to Big Boys Neighborhood (LA Radio), he said that Taylor can legally prevent Rhianna and Calvin from ever performing “This is What You Came For”. A song that SHE just so happened to write Btw. That’s what their ass’s get haha ?
So?
Can I help you?
Your so mean
This conversation is over.
Ok… Rihanna can just perform her OTHER top 10 hit. And what does this have to do with Rihanna for you to say “that what their @sses get?”
So what? Rihanna doesn’t even perform the song anyway.
But where is Sorry, I was told it is rising.
‘
If Britney gets a #1 before Yonce….LMAO
Oh they were BEGGING for Beysic to release the video to youtube and were gagging & bragging how it was going to rechart high. But like EVERY Beyonce single this decade, it’s gone after a week. How… weak? lol
Now the excuse is “wait until she releases her music on Spotify”, I think it’ll be the same old same old, but at least it keeps them trying.
Ciara is happy she was part of Fergie new video she said it herself stop hating.
@ FASHION_ICON
Where are you getting your facts? Because Anti has barely sold over 400k in the US and d@mn sure has not sold a million in the UK. What you are reading are shipments not sales! How an album that hasn’t even sold 500k in the US already certified 2x Plat is beyond me! And no, the copies Samsung bought are not included. That was even mentioned by billboard themselves. They were given away for free. So shut up already!!!
It’s too bad that Billboard doesn’t have the right to certify any album or give it a plaque. You guys use RIAA for everything Beyonce but now Rih is actually winning and selling, its a problem? Bye
But where is Xtina on the charts? How much has Lotus sold? And is Bionic certified?
Billboard doesn’t certify albums

But by the looks of itunes it’s your faves song which is already becoming an afterthought. Why is already tumbling down 2 spots behind a three month old song?

It’s projected to be in the Top 10 next week by industry forecasters – a Top 10 debut – is iminent and “Needed Me” will also be someplace within the Top 9 – 11, if so then Rihanna will have 3 songs in the Top 10 and one of which was a previous 9-week #1 single.
.
I’m extremely happy for Beyoncé, she deserves this but I’m also happy for my fave and what she’ll achieve next week is #fact. ?

Furthermore, a number of backward bullets are expected to take place within the next week as ‘Prince’ songs fall, which means that Beyoncé and Rihanna may have the chance to rise higher than initial peak positions.
.
Also, iTunes is a single metric of chart success today – a song may free-fall on iTunes whilst gaining on streaming platforms and the latter certainly outweighs the former now unfortunately.

@I STAN I know this already but that doesn’t change the fact the only song currently free falling is that is what you came for – which is already behind a three month old song.

Clock this p*** istan kiiiiii
The hive+ isn’t used to successful singles so they don’t understand
Hahahahaha I wonder what the humble pie must taste like
Bring the receipts king mark kiiiii????
But why do the RoachHive think they can form an opinion on singles when Beyonce hasn’t had an International smash hit since 2008? It’s utterly hilarious.
Floptina Aguilera:
Bionic – 330,000 copies
Lotus – 290,000 copies
_____________
?????
Canti 470,000 with a 9 week #1 single ????
Dear, @Centurion, @Keri, @LB & @Mark…Notice how the Hive stopped commenting a while ago, yet here y’all are talking to and arguing with YOURSELVES, what does that tell you, Navy?

Kii…this is why I left y’all and went to the HIVE.
LEARN SOMETHING FROM THIS!
Awwww are u still trolling the Navy when the hive pays u dust? gurl even the Navy dont see u. ????????????????????
These Navy f*** are disgusting
1-Marks/Keri Queen is a closeted power bottom who spends his coins on chaturbate
2-LB is a cooning self hating dirt dwelling f**
3-Centurion is a fking P.edo.phil.e
The navy is full of sickos!
Your b**** ass want in the next to begin with
The Navy is fking disgusting

What does this article have to do with. Beyoncé,Katy,Britney,Rihanna or Keri.
Good for ha !
Cool
Yonce barely scanned platinum this time around and the H** are trying to act like she outsold Rihanna. Rihanna gave away 1.4 million free copies and still is able to scan gold. That is a very big achievement in the music industry at this time frame. Huge actually. Since very few people in the game scan anything at all.
Has everyone forgotten she peed herself on stage gross and swear she’s been 41 for the last 15 years she Def must be closer to 60 and why did she wait 10 years to release a solo album
Ok. I definitely feel that there is a coconut between us
