    U.S. Charts Update – December 28, 2011
    Posted by on 3:42pm in

    The coronation of LMFAO’s “Sexy And I Know It” dethrones Rihanna’s “We Found Love,” featuring Calvin Harris, after eight weeks at No. 1 — Rihanna’s longest Hot 100 command. “We Love Love,” now at No. 2 on the Hot 100, spends a sixth week in charge of Radio Songs (148 million), while slipping 2-3 on Digital Songs (276,000, up 86%).

    “We Found Love” is #1 in the World Singles Top 40 for 7 weeks.

    Rihanna’s 6th album “Talk That Talk” is up to No. 7 on Billboard 200, selling 99,000 copies last week and over 470,000 copies since its release in the United States. Worldwide, the album has sold over 1,4 million copies.

      Oh, dont look so sad up there RiRi. U had 8 long weeks @ # 1. Too bad Ke$ha still rules for the longest # 1. U still tops on radio with WFL.

    • Raikeshi5

      Congrats to LMFAO for getting to the summit and sitting now @ # 1. Yeah baby, I love LMFAO too and it was only a matter of time b 4 that song SAIKI was # 1. The song is too hot. I wonder who's next? Katy or Adele?

      • Truth Teller

        I was thinking to myself, what moron would buy that horrible song to the extent that it would dethrone something actually good. Your post was my answer.

        • Raikeshi5

          Words r wind deary. Eh, but yeah, who bought the song enough so that it surpassed Rih? Who is the moron? If ur implication is urs truly, NOT! AND THINK b 4 U SPEAK and TRY again,EH!

          • Truth Teller

            I need to think before I speak? Take a look at the popularity of our respective comments, then think about that…

            And if "words r wind" you wouldn't have cared to reply to me.

      it sucks but now its time to put our attention on you da one

      • Truth Teller

        There should have been attention from the start… it hasn't even broken the top 10 yet and is completely dying in WFL's shadow. What's my name and Only Girl shared the same success at the same time, that just didn't happen here. "You" never got any push whatsoever when it should have.

        • ali

          Totally agreeing with you , YDO is going to die , i can see it , the video was not as good as WFL's and the fans , the Navy and the general public is not supporting it , so there is too choices :

          1-perform the song on a talk/award show

          2-or let it die :(

          • Truth Teller

            She needs to let it die. A rebound with "TTT" would be a great career move, but she's going for "WHYB" instead. She'd rather please fans at the expense of releasing another single that WILL underperform. Mark my freaking words people…

            Luckily she has the potential for two more big hits as soon as Drake and Coldplay officially release her features as singles. "Princess of China" is one of the best songs in recent years, period; and "Take Care" is the only rap song with an IQ released since "Love the way you Lie". So, hope springs eternal for 2012.

    • RiRi

      My sexy little boo ! is a such a hard worker love u RiHRIH !! sooo proud of ya !!

    • Cherry

      I'm just glad they didn't dethrone her after the 7th week. She got her longest #1 and I'm proud of that. No complaints =) 2 months is amazing.

    • Nick

      LMFAO is the disgrace of music! :[ Sad day. I agree though on to You Da One!!! PROMO!!!

      • Truth Teller

        They are bad, even by "Ke$ha" standards. But music doesn't exactly have to be good to be successful anymore now does it? The earworm can make a nice home in the cavity between some people's ears. And there are A LOT of people who fit that description atm.

    • SOSMANDOWN

      WFL had a GREAT run, 8 weeks at #1. Our longest hit! Now it's time to give "You Da One" it's chance. Navy, you know what we gotta do! Start making those phone calls. Lets knock the heck out of LMFAO!

    • Vil

      Rihanna will get back to #1 in 2 weeks!

      • truth Teller

        That's very likely if it holds where it is now. It's dominating radio by a large margin, which is why it was number 1 over Sexy for so long. But the push for the single is probably going to be applied to You da one now that it's slipped. So we'll see what happens…

    • GFHFDH

      Rihanna will always slay with singles.I really want to see TTT back in the top 5.TTT sales are not too bad but could be better.LMFAO is not real music.They Just say a bunch of catchy words and make a beat.Are they kidding??Rihanna should've stayed at the #1 spot.

      • lilly

        I agree rihanna should have stayed number 1! LMFAO is just to out of control. how can that song be the number 1 song in the country?!

        • >:P

          swingin' nuts lilly. you don't like them on ya?

          • Truth Teller

            If that's the reason for the song's succes the Jesus can come any day now and it would be alright with me. We'd deserve it.

    • Battleship

      at least WFL was #1 for 8 weeks her best charting ever. Now lets work on getting YDO to the top spot and keep it there.

    • lilly

      Rihanna holds a Strong Empire at just 23 years old
      Her Album and Single sales are amazing world wide, her perfume has sold 80 million this year, along with her worldwide tour selling 90 million, and the major endorsements from Nivea, Kodak, Vita coco, and Armani and her upcoming starring debut in the Film Battleship, she is running a 100,000,000 dollar empire, and with more tours, films, perfumes, and soon to be Fashion Line, rihanna could be running a Billion Dollar empire. before she turns 30.

      • Rih4life

        This is a great news and i am so proud of my girl rihanna u killing the show biz mama. what is amazing thing about rihanna is money doesnt change her at all, she is still humble as fuck.

    • ali

      Navy !! it's time to support YDO , we don't a "Run the World" , "Judas" and "Criminal" Flop !!!

      Let's support this single .

      • Truth Teller

        You Da One has already performed better than all 3 you mentioned. So even if it dies, it's still not a "flop" by those standards.

    • JBRND

      Calm down guys.. :) I'm sure that with a little promo that RIhanna might do for You Da One, she'll surely go back on top :) Although the reign of We Found Love has finished (Hopefully Not), The Rihanna Navy Reign will NEVER EVER LET UP! ;)
