Katy Perry‘s sophomore album, Teenage Dream ($18.98 from Amazon), has made history on the Billboard charts, tying a record originally set by the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson.
Not only has Teenage Dream, which was released last year, sold almost two million copies, but it has spawned five No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart. The only other album that has featured that many hit singles was MJ’s Bad album, back in 1987.
Katy’s last five No. 1s are: “California Gurls”, “Teenage Dream”, “Firework”, “E.T.” and most recently “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)”. In addition to the title track, Bad included the hits “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You”, “The Way You Make Me Feel”, “Man in the Mirror” and “Dirty Diana”.
Just as remarkably, thanks to Teenage Dream, Katy Perry is now that only woman to have five No. 1s from a single album in the history of Billboard (take that, Lady Gaga).
Lovelies, which Katy Perry song is your favorite?

Damn that’s awesome! I like all of those songs, but I also really like Hummingbird Heartbeat and The One That Got Away. California Gurls and Last Friday Night aren’t THAT great, but they’re catchy so it’s all good. Hahaha.

I cannot believe this. With the exception of ET, her music is awful.

Wow, so THAT’S who I’ve been listening to this whole time at work!
Her music gets played all the frickin’ time on the radio in my store. I can’t stand it! Never knew it was her though…shows how out of touch I am with pop music… :/

I can’t stand her. How is this possible…? I just honestly can’t understand how her voice is considered talent…

I don’t like her weird super high pitched breathy sounding voice.
Not a big MJ fan either though.

@pikaaa - Agreed. She has no talent at all. If it weren’t for her tits she would have never been famous.
