Rihanna’s “Only Girl” Back to Number One, P!nk Climbs Singles Chart

Rihanna’s “Only Girl (In the World”) will achieve a milestone on this week’s Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. It becomes the first chart-topping lead single to return to number one after the second single, “What’s My Name” in this case, achieves the feat.

Closely behind Rihanna will be P!nk’s ever-rising “Raise Your Glass.” Set to hit number two, it becomes her highest-charting song since 2008’s “So What” and her second-most successful single of all time.

Far East Movement’s “Like a G6” settles into number three, narrowly topping Ke$ha’s newest hit “We R Who We R.” Nelly’s “Just a Dream” lands at number five.

Katy Perry’s surging “Firework” hits number six this week, beating out Bruno Mars’ “Just the Way You Are,” Rihanna’s “What’s My Name,” Cee Lo Green’s “F*ck You” and Trey Songz’ “Bottoms Up (featuring Nicki Minaj).”
