Sorry Britney, but this time all the “glory” goes to Jennifer Lopez.

The actress/fashion maven/songstress may have had her fair share of misses on the charts over the last few years, but when it comes to her critically acclaimed run in Las Vegas, she’s clearly hit a homerun.

As the weekend saw her conclude the first leg of ‘All I Have’ – her hit residency at Planet Hollywood (named after her 2002 LL Cool J-assisted hit of the same name) – early box office receipts are showing the run is ending on quite the high note.  In fact, figures indicate she’s headed toward history books.

To say the ‘Suicide Squad’ soundtrack is killing the competition on the Billboard 200 may be ill-stated, but true nonetheless.

Indeed, after earning its fair share of thumbs down from critics at the box office, the movie itself dominated its premiere weekend in theaters to the tune of $133.6 million (breaking August box office records in the process). This week saw its official soundtrack, featuring contributions from the likes of Kehlani, Rick Ross, and Kanye West, Eminem, Rae Sremmurd, and many more, mirror its success by blasting to the top of the Billboard 200 on the wings of 182,000 sold (128,000 of this sum were traditional sales).

Fans of Britney Spears and Katy Perry were thrilled when the divas debuted in the top 20 of the singles charts with their latest releases, ‘Make Me’ and ‘Rise,’ respectively.

Yet, despite massive teasing by the former and an Olympics-fueled promotional campaign afforded to the latter, the diva duo haven’t exactly made the biggest splash. In fact, both songs saw major drops in the weeks that followed their premieres (‘Make Me’ from #17 down to #67 and ‘Rise’ from #11 to #43).

Now, thanks to two much-talked about visuals to accompany them, both songs have been lifted back into the upper half of the Hot 100.  Curious to find out where they landed on this week’s refreshed edition of the Sia-led tally?

“I’m excited to go back to animation,” she said. “I started in animation with my own comics and drawing, and even the Danity Kane name came from a character I created in high school.”
