Rihanna: The New Queen Of The Charts
Speaking of her rapid rise to fame, 19-year-old Rihanna tells on her Website: “So much has happened in my life, I feel like I’ve grown five years in a year.”
And quit the year its been. People out there just can’t seem to get enough of the Barbados native’s hit single Umbrella, as the song has been a mainstay at the top of the charts for months now.
The Rihanna / Jay-Z collaborative effort has conquered the U.S. pop charts after securing the top spot in the Billboard Hot 100 countdown for the seventh successive week.
And the popularity doesn’t end in the States. The hit single has claimed an impressive ninth week in the No. 1 spot on the UK charts. Doing so, it has now joined a short list of songs that have spent eight weeks on top - only Umbrella and Crazy by Gnarls Barkley have done so since 1994.
