Billboard Hot 100 (Issue Date: August 27, 2011)

And Katy Perry finally did it! Last Friday Night unseats LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem to claim this weeks Billboard Hot 100 top spot and at the same time setting the record for the very first solo female artist to have all five singles from the same album go to #1. She's also the second solo artist to achieve that record after Michael Jackson did that with his album "Bad" in 1987. Katy Perry's #1 singles are California Girls, Teenage Dream, Firework, E.T and now Last Friday Night while Michael Jackon's #1 hits from that album were I Just Can't Stop Loving You, Bad, The Way You Make Me Feel, Man In The Mirror and Dirty Diana. Last Friday Night finally made it to the top spot thanks to release of the remix featuring Missy Eliott but unlike Rihanna's S&M remix which featured and credited Britney Spears when the song push it to the top spot, Missy Elliott is not credited for this #1 hit because the sales for the remix are below the original and per Billboard rules the featured artist on a remix will only be credited on the chart if they outsold the original during the given chart week.

Maroon Five and Christina Aguilera's Moves Like Jagger climbs #8-#3 giving the band their second highest peaking song after their #1 hit Makes Me Wonder in 2007 and Aguilera her first top 5 song after Beautiful peaked at #2 in 2002. The song has a great chance of topping the chart as it is currently selling well with rising airplay to boot.

Personal favorite Pumped Up Kicks enters the top 10 this week at #8. The song is currently #3 on US iTunes and will likely break the top 20 on the airplay chart in the succeeding so expect this song to go as high as #4 or #5 next week.

Adele's Rolling in the Deep exits the top 10 this week after spending 19 weeks on the top portion of the chart. Meanwhile her second official single Someone Like You inches up to #51 this week. While it would be tough thing to surpass or even match Rolling in the Deep's success, Adele's second single is climbing on the sales and airplay chart plus she will likely perform this song on the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards which could likely boost this song even more. Let's wait and see

This week's top debut is Headlines from Drake which enters the chart at #13. This is the rapper's first single from his upcoming album . He will also be the top debut again next week as he is the featured act on Lil Wayne's new song She Will which is currently atop the US iTunes.

The Band Perry's If I Die Young slids to #15 this week on its 38th week on the chart. The song is still chugging along on the sales and airplay component but is struggling to break inside the top 10. If it manages to enter the top 10 anytime soon it would be one (if not) the longest climb to the top 10. I hope this song makes it, the song certainly didn't die young on the charts.

Rihanna's Cheers zooms #50-#25 this week, easily surpassing the #37 peak of her previous single California King Bed which drops all the way #60-#81 this week

Evanescence returns to the Hot 100 this week as their new single What You Want enters the chart at #68. The last song from Evanescence that made it on the Hot 100 was Call Me When You're Sober which peaked at #10 in 2006.
