By Jen Blushi

Her latest single, "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)," has become her fifth No. 1 song off her "Teenage Dream" album.

The song hit the вверх position on Billboard's Pop Songs chart Monday, making her the only artist in the chart's nearly 19-year history to accomplish such a feat. Her singles also make up five out of the six titles with the highest-ever weekly spin totals.

Perry has had a monumental year. In addition to her five No. 1 songs, she is also the only artist in history to be VMA-nominated for four separate Видео in a single year, and her movie debut in "The Smurfs" just barely missed the вверх of the box office.

If "Last Friday Night" reaches No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, she will Присоединиться the likes of Michael Jackson, who had five No. 1 songs on the Hot 100 from his album "Bad."

The writer of this Статья seems to be impressed with Katy's Музыка career. The writer also neglects to mention that the record was set by MJ FIRST. But he is being awfully generous and kind to say that Katy "shares" this feat with MJ... Yes, I'm being sarcastic. I think it shows the sad direction that Музыка is going. Does Katy write her own songs??? Yes, I'm sure she probably does...I've heard her songs.... или is she simply another "robot" manufactured by this money- hungry "music machine"? Yes, I'm sure she probably is.

I personally want to congratulate Katy, no, really I do....However, she will NEVER defeat the KING's "Thriller" album record!!! Музыка is definitely NOT what it used to be. MJ Ты are the KING and Ты will ALWAYS be the BEST!!!
