Britney Breaks Billboard Record!

Filed under: Music Minute > Britney Spears

fp_3707148_spears_britney_fp1_093009__opt1.jpg

Good for her!

Britney Spears' latest single "3" from her upcoming collection The Singles has debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart!

Brit Brit is the first artist in over 3 years to debut at the top spot! The last one was American Idol winner Taylor Hicks with "Do I Make You Proud" from 2006.

This is also Britney's 3rd time at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. "…Baby One More Time" was at the top spot in 1999 and "Womanizer" just last year.

Looks like 3 is her lucky number!

Congrats to Miz Spears!

  26. 26

    Re: HollywoodHottie23 – No. Not true. Michael and Janet debuted at #5. His second single "You Are Not Alone" was the one to debut at #1.



  27. 27

    I'm crying she's my idol… I love her and every day I love her more…. SHE'S THE QUEEN OF POP



  28. 28

    Heard the song, not impressed. The beat is the same as all her other songs, and most of the lyrics were unintelligible. I like Britney, and give her props for the debut, but this song isn't all that great.



  29. 29

    Re: SPICEBOY – Madonna has more, I think she has 12 or something. Madonna is still the Queen. Britney will always be the Princess. And Lady gaga will always be a weirdo.



  30. 30

    BOW BOW BOW TO GODNEY!!!!!!!!! FUCKING LEGEND!!! BOW BOW BOW!



  31. 31

    Re: HollywoodHottie23 – Really?! Then you might want to take it up with Billboard, because I'm sure they know nothing about THEIR OWNE RECORDS, right??



  32. 32

    Good for her. Totally unexpected. But GaGa is still Princess and Queen of Pop.



  33. 33

    She hands down the most OVERRATTED singer of all time the girl can't sing 4 shit…but I RESPECT her hustle so congrats!!!



  34. 34

    Princess of Pop!!!! yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh



  35. 35

    YES. Female with the most worldwide #1's ever! No video. No interviews. NO PROMOTION and #1. Bow to the QUEEN OF POP



  36. 36

    I DON'T BELIEVE IT, HER FUCKING SHITTY SINGLE IS HORRIBLE, NOTHING NEW, ALL HER MUSIC SOUNDS THE SAME, THE DIFFERENCE IS THE VOICE WICH IS GETTING WORST EVERYTIME. ANYWAY, I HATE HER.



  37. 37

    i love BRITNEY!!!



  38. 38

  49. 49

    Re: peaceloveandsex – she can sing and she has proved it 1.000 of times. just cuz she lip synch most of the time doesnt mean she cant sing. she proved it with you oughta know. shes proved it before when she has sung live. the end quit hating. and shes an amazing dancer and performer

  51. 51

    Re: HollywoodHottie23 – obviously you didn't read the post a dumb fuck. It says "Brit Brit is the first artist in over 3 years to debut at the top spot! The last one was American Idol winner Taylor Hicks with "Do I Make You Proud" from 2006.

    This is also Britney's 3rd time at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. "…Baby One More Time" was at the top spot in 1999 and "Womanizer" just last year."

    Maybe you should pay attention before you start speaking!



  52. 52

    You can't argue with #1. #1 is #1. And it's Billboard, USA–where it really matters.



  53. 53

    BRITNEY IS QUEEN
    – britney has the most #1's worldwide this decade than any other artist. shes also the highest selling as well. and she has the highest grossing tour this year.



  54. 54

    I HEARD THE SONG MARIO ITS NOT ALL THAT…



  55. 55

    WE love you Britney! Congrats our PRINCESS OF POP!!!!!!!!!!



  56. 56

    EAT THAT! SHE IS THE PRINCESS OF POP! NOT ONE UGLY FUCK LIKE GAGA!
    BRITNEY U ARE THE BEST!



  57. 57

    stfu people. It is what it is. Quit making excuses. She's on fire and always will be.
    Britney.
    Sells.
    Period.
    It's #1 for a reason. It's a catchy, clever song like most of her stuff. just enjoy the music and quit tearing everything apart. All the people that complain on here are going to end up being those NIGHTMARE old people in the nursing home that complain about EVERYTHING.
    way to go britney! I love you as much as I did 10 years ago.



  58. 58

    love u brit! ♥



  59. 59

    Re: persay27 – WTF I'm fair from a hater or Stan I'm a fan of Britney and if I buy her albums I can say what I love about her and hate. Its called and honest option get one.



  60. 60

    Love Britney, BUT…. "3" absolutely sucks! The only reason it's at the top of the Billboard is because it's pervy. It's nothing but synthetic-sounding shit!



  61. 61

    That song is so bad..and so are the lyrics. Just like "womanizer, womanizer, womanizer, womanizer"
    does she recruit her sons for the song writing?



  62. 62

    You can't argue with The Facts #1.

    YOU WANT FACTS, IM ALL ABOUT FACTS, YOU KNOW

    #1 is #1. And it's Billboard USA where it REALLY MATTERS



  63. 63

    go britney go!

    SHE CAN DO IT"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #1



  64. 64

    I really don't get how this girl can be so successfull. She's only a product of marketing!!! She's NOT A SINGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Probably, she's only a dancer….

    This world is lost!

    PS - The song SUCKS!!!



  65. 65

    Re: seifer252005 – I agree!!!



  66. 66

    WTF, just proves how stupid people are nowadays. Her music is seriously like McDonalds, utter garbage but people will buy it anyway. Her songs are catchy that's about it



  67. 67

    she is the new queen of pop madonna back down



  68. 68

    Re: A Voice of Sanity – I LOVE 3! I think it's a great song, dancing to it right now in celebration.



  69. 69

    Talk about horrible. This song takes the cake as far worst pop songs in history IMO. And, I still don't understand how people pay to see someone who doesn't even sing let alone hardly dance in concert??



  70. 70

    yay! so who's the real Princess of Pop ? Caca? lol ,Congrats Brit Brit!



  71. 71

    BIOTCH IS 27 YET SHE CONTINUES TO PLAY A HIGH SCHOOL KID IN THE VIDS??? WTF!!! OIC.. THE LEVEL OF HER INTELLIGENCE. OK, I TAKE THAT BACK. CAN'T ARGUE WITH THE TRUTH!! JUST SAYIN.

    all hail the REAL princess of pop! you are fabulous, britney. keep it up!



  75. 75

    I loved Blackout and Circus but this is her lamest song in a long time and it's Number 1? Even Toxic (her best ever) didn't make it to Number 1. That's ridiculous



  76. 76

    Re: popstar2k2 – "obviously you didn't read the post a dumb fuck. It says "Brit Brit is the first artist in over 3 years to debut at the top spot! "

    So what's the record she broke, fuckstain? See? Up there in the article title, you low-voltage dipshit? "Britney Breaks Billboard Record?" So what record is it? "First Person To Do Something A Lot Of Other People Have Done?" You may want to tone down the "dumb fuck" name-calling until you have the slightest idea what you're talking about, you dim-witted simpleton flipper baby.

  91. 91

    Impressed to see that bit … Great honours for you BROTHERS whatever , whoever you are, wherever you came from. Sorry for that little confusion however it helped to realize who and where we are and how can we handle whatever situation outside the mind , outside of the plan.
    Much Love for YOU and my support.



  92. 92

    She looks really good. I'm so glad she is back on top. Team Spears.



  93. 93

    well at the end of the day we should all be happy for anyones success. theres no point in putting someone down. even if you dont like her she works hard. and has turned her life around. i commend her for her success and wish her the best.

    at the end of the day we all have different opinions and different tastes. and thats whats great. some of us love the song other dont. its life. anyway congrats on your number 1 britney cant wait for the video hope its hot.

    Re: RobPnMeShouldB – jejejejeje I lov her…. she's the best

  97. tasha says – reply to this


    97

    I'm not surprised. People are going to download this song rather then buy her greatest hits album it will be on. That unfortunately will probably tank.



  98. 98

    Re: franciscoues – ASSHOLE GAGA NEVER DEBUT AT NUMER 1 BRITNEY IS THE BEST



  99. 99

    and you think lady gaga is the princess of pop perez, um sorry, gaga has nothing on britney! gaga has a long way to go if she wants to take that title from the legendary britney spears.



  100. 100

    and for those calling britney the queen of pop, you are sadly mistaken, there is one legend who has had way way more influence and success, and just finished the largest grossing tour of all time by any single artist, we all know who that is, im not even going to say it :P
