As if Gaga isn't overexposed?
but she's also a talented, fascinating, and eloquent trendsetter.

Katy, on the other hand...

Well that's my point.

Gaga has something extra (or at least is perceived to) so people are willing to buy the whole album. The likes of Katy Perry are throwaway cookie cutter acts that can't sell albums because even teens know that their albums are crap beyond the singles, or close to it.

gaga appeals to a far broader demographic than the likes of katy perry, keisha and the rest of young female popstars. along with her teenage fans, gaga may also add the fashionistas, the gays, even women and pop admirers of any gender and age to her thanklist for those dazzling album sales. katy perry's big hits are just not adult friendly enough to secure solid numbers of album shipments.

Katy Perry Dethrones Eminem On Hot 100

Katy Perry posts back-to-back No. 1s on the Billboard Hot 100, as "Teenage Dream" is set to top the chart when it's released in full tomorrow morning (Sept. 9).

The last female artist to post successive No. 1 singles on the chart was Lady Gaga, who took her first two entries, "Just Dance" and "Poker Face," to the summit in the first half of 2009.

Perry spent six weeks at No. 1 with her last radio single "California Gurls" earlier this summer, accumulating enough time in the upper reaches of the chart to lead the Summer Songs tally for most of the season. The final ranking of Top Summer Songs will also be announced tomorrow. On this week's Hot 100, "California Gurls" dips 7-10.

"Teenage Dream" makes its surge to No. 1 thanks in part to a copping a second straight Airplay Gainer award, topping 100 million listener impressions for the first time with a 19% audience gain (7-5 on Radio Songs), according to Nielsen BDS. The track holds at No. 1 for a second week on Digital Songs with 221,000 (down 15%), according to Nielsen SoundScan.

Perry supplants Eminem, who was also enjoying a back-to-back No. 1 run on the Hot 100. "Love the Way You Lie," featuring Rihanna, led for the past seven weeks (1-2), while his last single "Not Afraid" topped the chart for a week in May.

Elsewhere in the top 10, Taio Cruz's "Dynamite" holds at No. 3, Bruno Mars' "Just the Way You Are" jumps 6-4 and "I Like It" by Enrique Iglesias featuring Pitbull slips 4-5.

Usher's "DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love," featuring Pitbull, is pushed down 5-6, Taylor Swift's "Mine" moves 9-7 and "Take It Off" by Ke$ha rises 10-8.

Nelly returns to the Hot 100 top 10 for the first time in more than four years as "Just a Dream" climbs 13-9. The rapper was last in the upper tier when "Grillz," featuring Paul Wall, Ali & Gipp, topped the list for two weeks in January 2006.

Cee Lo Green makes the chart's largest leap as "F**k You (Forget You)" soars 96-33 with Digital Gainer honors. On the Digital Songs chart, the track moves 69-19 with 59,000 downloads (up 180%).

Also making a notable Hot 100 jump is "Like a G6" by Far*East Movement featuring Cataracts & Dev (41-21). The song improves 25-12 on Digital Songs (75,000, up 54%), while airplay impressions increase by 49% to 19.8 million.

The chart's top debut is George Strait's "The Breath You Take," which comes in at a modest No. 95. The list's other two debuts are fellow Country Music Association Award nominees Miranda Lambert and Brad Paisley, who arrive with "Only Prettier" (No. 96) and "Anything Like Me" (No. 100), respectively. The 44th Annual CMA Awards will be handed out Nov. 10 on ABC.

She's actually improved, believe it or not. She still has absolutely no breath control and her belting is still mere shouting, but still improved.

"I Kissed A Girl" on the Grammys remains the worst live vocal ever given by a pop star on a major broadcast:

I always knew it had huge potential. It's a damn good pop song really.

Comedian Russell Brand, 35, married pop singer Katy Perry, 25, in a traditional Hindu wedding ceremony at a luxury resort in India Saturday night. Joining Brand and Perry for the procession were two elephants named Laxmi and Mala. “Mala is a bit skittish and hates crowds, but she managed to behave herself,” a source confirmed. [People]

Unreal.

The music video for "Firework," where Katy Perry's breasts serve as the launching pad for explosions coming out of her ta-tas, was censored on British television for her cleavage and the kiss between two boys. Pixelation stands in where lip locking once did.

If this had been the US, I wouldn't have been remotely surprised, but the UK? Christ on a f*cking bike! This is utterly pathetic.
