All tag results for 'charts'

The numbers are in and it's official: will.i.am's latest solo album is an HUGE BUST!

The singer clearly fell victim to one of the classic blunders — the most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Asia," but only slightly less well-known is "never release your album when Michael Bublé is charting!"

Despite help from Britney Spears, Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, and even Chris Brown — who was arrested for mercilessly beating Rihanna in 2009 — #Willpower sold only 29,000 copies!!!

Coming in below everyone from Fall Out Boy to Rob Zombie, will's solo effort barely cracked the Top Ten!!

Ch-ch-check out the rest of the list…AFTER THE JUMP!!!

First we hear rumors that Jennifer Lopez was supposed to REPLACE Mariah Carey mid-season on American Idol, and now this?! We can't imagine MiMi will be too happy about this!

The American Idol judges and DIVAS in pop are JUST about to release the first singles off of their upcoming albums — Mariah's #Beautiful ft. Miguel, and Jennifer's Live It Up ft. Pitbull — but it seems like both ladies are planning to debut their tracks THE SAME WEEK!

The Fantasy queen has already announced that #Beautiful will premiere on May 8th, but news JUST broke that Jen will unleash Live It Up THE DAY BEFORE on May 7!

Could this be a calculated business move perhaps?! Is SOMEONE trying to steal someone else's thunder?!

Well, we guess we shall just have to wait and see who comes out on top of the charts that fateful week in May…

But seeing as MiMi was NOT so Triumphant with her last single, we can't help but feel that Jenny from the Block might just dominate!

Believe it Beliebers!

We're not sure how Justin Bieber feels about his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez wanting to touch tongues with One Direction's Zayn Malik, but we ARE sure he's probably pretty souped that his Believe Acoustic album is already getting RAVE reviews…

AND it's predicted to be his FIFTH No.1 album on the Billboard 200 chart!

During it's first week of sale, Believe Acoustic is expected to sell between 180,000 to 190,000 units, and his ONLY competition (we use the word in a loose sens) would be Andrea Bocelli's new Passione which MAY sell 85,000.

BA follows in the footsteps of Justin's other No.1 albums: My World 2.0 (2010), Never Say Never: The Remixes (2011), Under the Mistletoe (both in 2011) and Believe (2012).

Congratz to the max, Mr. Beebz!

We hope you break out some of that acoustic, money-making magic at your SNL hosting/performing gig!

This has to be the sweetest form of revenge!

Taylor Swift has beat out the movie that turned her down!!

That’s right!! Taylor Swift’s Red has predictably won its seventh nonconsecutive week at the top of the U.S. album charts, overshadowing the just-released, globally celebrated Les Misérables soundtrack.

This marks the end of the 2012 record sales year with Tay Tay's fourth album selling 241,000 copies while Les Mis sold 136,000.

..And Swifty didn't even have a Christmas release date to help boost sales.

mAYBE director Tom Hooper is second guessing his casting decision for Eponine now! (Probably not, though. Samantha Barks = GENIUS!)

No matter how talented Taylor may or may not be in the acting arena, her universal popularity is not something to be underestimated!!!

Who needs a silly role in Les Misérables when you're #1 on the pop charts!?

That's right!!! Taylor Swift's Red had its sixth (non-consecutive) week at the top of the U.S. album charts!

Since the album's release in mid-October it has sold 2.9 million copies. Not too shabby!!!

Label sources have also predicted that the country-pop album will have a seventh week at the #1 spot as 2012 closes out next week.

Talk about ending the year with a bang!!!

We wonder how she and Harry Styles will celebrate?! Another romantic vacation?!

Princess Rihanna can add yet another flawless jewel to her ever-growing collection! Diamonds — the first single off of Unapologetic — is officially RiRi's 19th #1 hit on Billboard's Dance/Club chart!!

That makes her one of pop's MOST successful females in the chart… she only comes second to Madonna who boasts an intimidating 43!

SO many congratulatory hearts for you, oh glittering Princess! We wonder if your next single, Stay, will prove as successful?

Although seeing as how it's an emotional ballad, we can't imagine it'll rate highly in the dance/club genre…

Unless people wanna get tears in their vodka-redbulls!

Welly well well, it seems Mariah Carey's lackluster single Triumphant (Get 'Em) ft. Rick Ross IS getting listened to by people… some sweaty, cray cray, club dancing people!

Mimi released the tune (three versions, actually) back in August, and it immedeatly dissapeared from all music charts.

Until now!

Triumphant marks Mariah's 16th number one
