Britney Spears’ ‘3′ Debuts at Number One
There was no “oops,” but she sure did it again.
Britney Spears debuts at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with her new single, “3,” according to Oh No They Didn’t. The new song makes Spears the first artist to debut at #1 in over three years and also debuts at #1 on the Billboard Digital charts.
Rolling Stone Magazine labelled “3″ as an “instant Britney classic” and gave the song a four star review. This is sure to add anticipation to the release of Spears’ greatest hits album, The Singles Collection, on Nov. 10. According to Billboard Magazine, Spears is the first artist outside those of American Idol fame to claim the #1 Billboard position since Lauryn Hill’s “Doo Wop (That Thing)” in 1998.
“I want to thank my fans for making ‘3′ the #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100,” Britney said in response to her song’s success. “I am truly blessed with the greatest fans in the world, and I am so happy y’all love it because I do this all for you. I can’t wait till you see the video.”
