Methodology:

Based on #1 singles in the world's biggest music markets (with official singles chart) according to the IFPI. In order to make this more accurate, non-official and radio charts with shady/incomplete info aren't counted (example: Brazil Hot 100 or Polish Airplay Chart)

The way how Beyoncé's no.1 in France, Germany and Italy is Beautiful Liar....

 

How come Mariah doesn't have no.1 in Japan?

[smgupdated]

Kylie has two #1s in Italy, Limpido and Can't Get You Out Of My Head (both missing here).

She also has Can't Get You Out Of My Head, Slow and 2 Hearts as #1s in Spain (3 instead of 2 listed above).

Her total is 43 then, which places her at #11. Please update.

Mariah has 3 #1s in Australia.

 

Fantasy, We Belong Together and All I Want For Christmas Is You.

[cuneytb]

AIWFC is going to be #1 in so many countries, she might jump some positions with it  

[cuneytb]

Btw, are you sure about that Japan chart?  

 

only Celine Dion has 1 song at #1 on that list

Why are you surprised?

 

Madonna has 0 number one songs in Japan, and yet she’s been a high profile name there for more than two decades.

 

Japan is an extremely difficult market to crossover too especially for Anglo/Western acts. 

[GoodGuyGoneGhetto]

The two biggest international chart queens of all-time at the TOP, as expected! 
 

[Konril]

ASIB really punch Gaga thru huh? 

[Mamamo]

That top 3 is perfection   Too iconic, too global 

[bad guy]

Can't wait to see Rihanna pounce to #1 after R9 and R10 is all said and done.

only my faves!!!!!

I'm not a fan of Gaga, but she is, like, the only international artist who topped Billboard Japan Hot 100 this decade with BTW. Leona was the first with Bleeding Love.

 

That means she topped all main leading markets?

YEAH.. Sadly JAPAN's official chart is purely PHYSICAL and BTW peaked at no.3 in Physical Sales..

Born This Way was No.1 in combined Physical and Digital.. twas such a MASSIVE Era in ASIA
