Rihanna‘s rejection of Sia‘s ‘Cheap Thrills’ has proven itself a serious misstep on the Bajan beauty’s part.

For, after penning her fair share of hits for other artists and wielding a series of her own hits courtesy of soaring tunes ‘Chandelier,’ ‘Big Girls Cry,’ and ‘Elastic Heart,’ the singer/songwriter has taken the Sean Paul-assisted tune to #1 on the Hot 100.  Ending the 10 week reign of Drake‘s ‘One Dance’ (featuring Wizkid & Kyla), ‘Thrills’ – thanks to a timely $.69 iTunes sale – comes as the first chart-topper of Sia’s nearly 20 year career.

In addition, she is the first and only woman over 40 since Madonna‘s ‘Music’ in 2000 to top the Hot 100. Tuck in below to find out the figures that helped hoist the powerhouse to the perch of the singles charts:

Much like her soaring pop tune ‘Roar’ scared off the competition upon its debut (namely Lady Gaga‘s ‘Applause’), Katy Perry’s Hot 100 dominance shows no signs of cooling if the sales performance of ‘Rise’ – her latest single – is any indication.

Released the same day as Britney Spears‘ highly anticipated new single, ‘Make Me (ft. G-Eazy),’ Perry’s Olympic-inspired tune certainly lived up to its title, not only giving rise to a friendly competition between her fans (#KatyCats) and Spears’ (#BritneyArmy), but also rising to the occasion with strong sales and streaming.
