Hot 100: Selena Gomez’ “The Heart Wants What it Wants” Goes Top 20

Meghan Trainor’s “Lips are Movin” is not the only new addition to the top twenty this week.

Selena Gomez’ “The Heart Wants What it Wants,” which has been making major noise since its release earlier this month, rockets to #20 on the latest Billboard Hot 100.

“Heart,” which rises six places on this week’s chart, becomes Gomez’ second top twenty hit. She previously went as high as #6 with “Come and Get it.”

The beneficiary of high-profile exposure during the American Music Awards, “Heart” this week gained impressive traction on the iTunes Single Sales chart. Thanks to its strong sales performance and its surging airplay, “Heart” is likely to move even higher in the coming weeks.
