Because of all the threads being made of late for 'artists with the most whatever' on Billboard, I decided to do one for a MUCH more accurate chart, the ARC Top 40.

Artists with the most #1 hits this decade (2000-2009):

Christina Aguilera- 6
Destiny's Child- 6
Beyoncé- 6
Justin Timberlake- 6
Rihanna- 6

J-Lo- 5
Avril Lavigne- 5

Alicia Keys- 4
Nelly- 4
P!nk- 4
Timbaland- 4
Chris Brown- 4

Britney Spears- 3 (She had 2 in 1999 )
Janet Jackson- 3
Usher- 3
Madonna- 3
Gwen Stefani- 3
Mariah Carey- 3
Kelly Clarkson- 3
Pussycat Dolls- 3
Nelly Furtado- 3

Eventually I'll do one with the most charted songs this decade. I'm sure we ALL know who that'll be.

Oh and if any of you little idiots try to add Destiny's Child's to Beyoncé's numbers, I'll report you.

Obviously she doesn't even need it.

Britney had 2 in 1999....huh?

And how is this more accurate?

The Billboard Mainstream Top 40 Chart would be the most accurate....which resembles Mediabase/Radio and Records more than this.

For a grand total of 12 for THE QUEEN.

The ARC Top 40 combines Pop radio PLUS sales and video play (which I'm guessing is streaming). It's like the Pop 100 but without the huge jumps. I'd like to know exactly HOW it is calculated though.

Oh and Brit had ...Baby One More Time and (You Drive Me) Crazy go #1 on this chart in 1999.

She Matters

Watch out, Queen Elizabeth II, Bee stans are about to reclaim your crown as well.

Get it Bee

AMAZING
BOW to Avril Lavigne

but... for example Justin Timberlake actually just have 4 #1's,
'Summer Love'??? yes it was #1 but honestly doesn't count cause that song wasn't a hit it doesn't even have a video, I don't know how it went to #1 and 'Give It To Me' is a song of Timbaland.

another example Rihanna 'Live Your Live' does not count it's a song of T.I so she also got 5 #1's, If u count that one well u should count 'Nobody Wants To be Lonely' of Ricky Martin feat Christina and she will have 7 #1´s and be the biggest artist this decade at the ARC..

The only one that truly deserve those 6 #1's is Beyonce and DC.

How does "Summer Love" not count as a #1 because it didn't have a video? And it peaked #6 on the Hot 100, without a video or promotion. That's clearly a hit

Also, Billboard counts collaborations for both the starring and featuring artist.

beyonce has had 6, i was surprised that


Beyonce has had 28 weeks at no. 1 on ARC....while Destiny's child has only had 14 weeks at no. 1 with 6 singles each...

Britney Spears- 3

dont need lots #1s, just memorable songs n videos
