BORN THIS WAY BECOMES BILLBOARD'S 1,000TH #1 SINGLE

DUH!! Of course the GIGANTIC response to Lady Gaga's amazy new single Born This Way has all culminated in her debuting at the #1 position this week on the Billboard Hot 100. In addition, BTW starts at No. 6 on the Radio Airplay chart with an audience of 78.5 million, the highest bow and largest opening airplay figure for a song since the tally began incorporating all radio formats in December 1998. Born This Way likewise breaks barriers with the largest debut sum for a female artist, with opening-week digital sales of 448,000, beating the previous record set by Britney Spears four weeks ago with Hold It Against Me which clocked 411,000 sales. This is all after only five days of radio play and three days of digital availability. Is there nothing Gaga can't achieve? I think not. Gaga for president!!!
