Females with most official #1 singles WW Updated 26/12/2019 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) 1. Madonna 180 #1 hits 2. Rihanna 118 #1 hits 3. Britney Spears 86 #1 hits 4. Lady Gaga 70 #1 hits 5. Shakira 60 #1 hits 5. Katy Perry 60 #1 hits 6. Mariah Carey 56 #1 hits 7. Whitney Houston 53 #1 hits 8. P!nk 49 #1 hits 9. Christina Aguilera 46 #1 hits 10. Adele 44 #1 hits 11. Celine Dion 43 #1 hits 11. Beyoncé 43 #1 hits 11. Kylie Minogue 43 #1 hits 12. Olivia Newton-John 42 #1 hits 13. Cher 41 #1 hits 14.

The biggest seller on Feb. 26 among all the songs performed on the show was Timberlake’s former Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit “Feeling,” which sold about 12,000 downloads on Sunday -- up from 4,000 on the previous day. The combined versions of “How Far I’ll Go” went from 4,000 to 6,000, while “City of Stars” climbed from 1,000 to 5,000 and “Audition” grew from less than 1,000 to more than 2,000. “Both Sides, Now” (3,000), “The Empty Chair” (1,000) and “Lovely Day” (1,000) all zoomed from negligible figures. Increases earned from the show were not limited to the songs performed on the Oscars broadcast. In addition, the film that won the most awards (six) of the evening, La La Land, saw its three separate soundtrack and score albums rise from a combined total of about 1,000 to 3,000 downloads sold. It’s expected that in the full tracking week, which ends at the close of business on Thursday, March 2, there will be sizable gains for all of the above songs, in addition to the nominated scores (Jackie, La La Land, Lion, Moonlight and Passengers). http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/7702279/oscars-sales-gain-justin-timberlake-la-la-land-songs

On the heels of his big self-titled release—headed for chart dominance this week—A1/Freebandz/Epic’s Future will be dropping another album on Friday, as artist and label vie for back-to-back #1s. Word has it the second set is more Rhythmic-leaning and radio-friendly. The first of Future's two new sets is on track to bow with 145-155k on our SPS chart, with 125-150 million streams. His DS2 bowed at #1 in 2015 with 153k SPS; he and Drakereleased a joint mixtape a few months later, and it too had a #1 debut, with 379k SPS. Are further surprises coming in week three? http://m.hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=305045

Was Billboards Hot 100 chart accurate around this time? around this time, single sales had COMPLETELY died out. The Hot 100 was basically the AirPlay Hot 100. As a result, there were only 8 #1 hits in 2002 (or 2003, I forgot). Many singles that seemed like huge hits completely flopped. One example would be Christina aguileras dirrty. Obviously the song was never big enough for a #1 chart position, and probably not even a top 10 position. But, it for sure felt bigger than a #48 peaking hit ?. TRL was huge at the time and had massive impact of teenagers and young adults. In my opinion, Billboard should've use stats from TRL. Obviously radio should've still been the main component, but TRL should've contributed a bit to the chart too. There were songs with music videos that were massive (dirrty) which meant the GP knew and was talking about the song, but completely flopped on the hot 100 because of poor AirPlay. Any thoughts?

Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' Extends Reign as Highest Certified Album in U.S. History Doug Morris, Rob Stringer, John Branca, Richard Story, L.A. Reid and Karen Langford. Michael Jackson’s blockbuster album Thriller just keeps on getting bigger. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) has certified the set at 33-times platinum in the U.S., extending Thriller’s record as the highest certified album in history. That means Thriller -- released in 1982 -- has earned 33 million equivalent album units in the U.S. That sum blends traditional album sales (one album sale equals one unit), tracks sold from an album (10 tracks sold equals one unit) and on-demand audio and/or video streams (1,500 streams equals one unit). A plaque commemorating the milestone was presented at the home of Epic Records chairman Antonio "L.A." Reid over Grammy weekend, where Sony Music CEO Doug Morris, Columbia Records chairman and incoming Sony Music CEO Rob Stringer, Sony president, commercial group Richard Story, attorneys Karen Langford and John Branca toasted the certification. The RIAA revamped its Gold & Platinum Awards Program on Feb. 1, 2016, growing from a pure album sales certification process to one that includes tracks and streams. That same day, Thriller’s certification was raised from 30 million to 32 million. Thriller continues to maintain its place as the highest-certified album ever, ahead of Eagles’ Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975, with 29 million (It was last certified on Jan. 30, 2006.) Simultaneous with Thriller’s raised certification, its follow-up, Bad, climbs to 10-times platinum (the RIAA’s Diamond award). Jackson is one of just 22 acts with more than one Diamond-certified album.

PRINCE: ROYALLY AWESOME STREAMING NUMBERS The long-awaited release of the Prince catalog on all on-demand streaming services bore immediate fruit, according to info from BuzzAngle Music. The first two days the music was available (2/12 and 2/13), Prince songs were streamed 5.9 million times. Previously exclusive to Tidal, the across-the-board availability of Prince’s music resulted in astronomical increases. The last time Prince received more than 5 million streams was on April 29, 2016, just weeks after his death. This was just the second time in the past six months when more than 1 million Prince tracks were streamed. Total streaming activity on Prince albums increased 5,578 % compared to the previous five days. During those first two days, Purple Rain was the most streamed album (1,535,608 streams), followed by 1999 (701,153 total streams). “Let’s Go Crazy” was the most streamed song (339, 748 streams). In related news, Jim Lidestri knows what it sounds like when doves cry. http://hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=305003 Glad they realize that Tidal alone doesn't pay the bills

Michael Jackson's Thriller has become the first album certified 33x Diamond for United States sales and streams. Thinking about how to redecorate the offices to fit the new artwork are, from left, Sony Music CEO Doug Morris, Columbia Records Chairman & CEO Rob Stringer, Estate Co-Executor John Branca, Commercial Music Group President Richard Story, Epic RecordsChairman & CEO L.A. Reid and the Jackson Estate’s Karen Langford. Alternative fact: Doug Morris scored higher than Rob Stringer at Sony’s annual “Moonwalk” competition. http://hitsdailydouble.com/news&id=304993 Dang

What are some songs that could have gone #1? STATE ACTUAL FACTS! So don't say "oh Monster would have for sure been a smash but it was not released as a single Some examples: No Doubt's Don't Speak: #1 on radio for 16 weeks, but couldn't chart on the Hot 100 because there was no physical release Madonna's Into the Groove: overshadowed the #5 peaking "Angel." The song was not issued as a 7" single so did not chart. It was the B-Side to the Angel 12' single. At the time however 12" singles did not count towards the Hot 100 (until 1987). Angel could have peaked higher if the 12" sales were included. The 12' was the first 12" to be certified GOLD in the usa (and at the time, if a single went gold that meant a million copies)
