With 88,000 downloads sold and a whopping 22.8 million streams its first full week of availability, The Weeknd‘s newest tune – ‘Starboy’ – has zoomed from its debut spot of #40 last week to #3 this week. The Daft Punk-assisted number may even see higher heights next week thanks to a much talked-about live premiere via ‘SNL’ last weekend (watch that here if you missed it).
Yet, while the ‘Earned It’ crooner and co. celebrate their victories, there’s one singer who probably isn’t in the most celebratory mood – Lady Gaga. That’s right, after ‘Perfect Illusion’ – the lead single from her 5th album ‘Joanne’ – made a moderate #15 debut three weeks ago, the tune plunged out of the top 40 the next week. And, while fans were hopeful the song’s video would help hoist it upward, this week has proven the exact opposite. Yep, it’s now dropped out of the top 50!
Find out where it and all your other favorites of the day landed on this week’s refreshed TGJ CHART CHECK Hot 100:

Record of the year so far
Bruno is COMING!
TGJ can you guys post more than the same artist?
There is so much music and entertainment you don’t cover that fits with your audience!
I am even surprised you haven’t posted about Chloe x Halle (Beyonce affiliated) who have just released a new video and sang live on the today show!
Go back to interviewing artist. Do something? Did you run out of budget? Did you lose your prominent sources? Do artist not want to affiliated with you anymore?
Get a new team. Go back to the drawing board. The only reason I complain is because you guys used to be the site I came to because no other site was delivering good and new content. That’s changed.
Put that gaga trash in the bin
Starboy is mediocre at best. Lady Gaga isn’t resonating with the public at all. Hopefully she releases something that radio likes. Not everyone can be Beyonce and not have any hits and still survive. Looking forward to the Superbowl.
That double edged shade. B1tch I live! Two heux with one stone.
Where is Bruno Mars. They hype this kid up so much and his music isn’t that good.
King Abel! He just lets the music speak for itself! Congrats to Daft Punk too! #STARBOY #11/25
Perfect delusion is done!!!!!!!!!! YIKES
What number is hold up?
Don’t know…but i know it charted higher than FADGA’S comeback single and sold more. SORRY U CAN’T RELATE BOO..LOL
I did not like STARBOY at first…..until i saw the video. The lyrics are deep as f****..
It’s Gaga’s karma for sabotaging Christina’s bionic era.
I’ll drink to that!!! ?
Very true
YAAAAS HONEY .. n Xtina is comin to snatch
*plays birds of prey*
Gaga isn’t worried about charts…
????? Oh yes she is. I can’t with y’all acting like charts don’t matter than still want to try everyone else’s fav on the Hot100 ???
Exactly…..S****** BLONDE said it on the other post that VOMITGA’S new toned down image and less elaborate costumes this era seems forced. It’s almost like she is acting like an indie artist to seem more normal after the tragedy that was FLAMESPOP in 2013. Unfortunately the GP is still not here for her…DAMN
She should be
I don’t see hold up anywhere on the charts tho.
I can’t at Fadga tumbling out the Hot100 faster than my fav did those stairs on The Beyoncé Experience Tour! ?????????
lol…my favorite Bey concert moment on Youtube was when someone was messing up the lighting on stage during Diva…she kept the show going as always, but said, “LIGHTS…somebody’s getting FIRED…HEY, HEY!” lol
The funny thing is that Bey recovered faster from that FALL..well VOMITGA on the other hand well didn’t..lol
King Bruno coming back for his Crown!
They said streaming is cheap & easy. How come Gags flopping with low sales, on every stream site and has a video out? She’s done!
It’s not because streaming isn’t cheap or easy it’s because the GP isn’t interested in the song, regardless of rather or not something is free or not people actually have to still like it or see use for it in order to want to have it, some people see enough value in stuff to purchase it, some people see enough value in something to take time out to download a free app and stream it and some people don’t see value in it at all and just ignore it.
Told ya so
The beat on Starboy goes hard though
Amazing! It is definitely well deserved. Not a huge fan of his but his content IS pretty dope.
Feel the same word for word.
Good for him though.
single #2 GaGa, hurry up! if the song catches on, postpone Joeanne to Thanksgiving.
props to The Weeknd! Starboy is a hit – can’t wait for the album
Britney sold 96,000 and debuted at #17 but he sells 88,000 and positions at number #3. Streaming has fxcked up everything!
Streaming is just a silent killer wether we like to admit it or not
Nice
