Not nicki

Katy Perry and it isn't even close. All 4 of her lead singles have gone to be #1 3 of which being iconic smashes

For me, I'd say,

Bey & Ariana. I can't say not a bad thing about any of their lead singles. Their effortlessly great.

Bey, Brit and Rih

Britney

Mariah

I disagree.

Rihanna.

#2 - Pon de Replay
#1 - SOS
#1 - Umbrella
#1 - Take a Bow
#9 - Russian Roulette
#1 - Only Girl (In the World)
#1 - We Found Love
#1 - Diamonds
#4 - FourFiveSeconds

The slayage is just...

The thread isn't asking for the queen of successful singles

Definitely Rih

Britney since Pretty Girls won't be on B9.

Britney for sure

Selena has been slaying with her lead singles recently (C&GI, THWWIW and GFY are all perfection ) but with her first three albums the second singles were all vastly superior to the lead singles

Rihanna

Oh.

Mariah, I mean all of her lead singles in the 90's went to number 1
and all of them except for TTR went top 15.

Britney's lead singles slays

People in here naming their faves when they only have 2 lead singles

Katy Perry's lead singles are all massive #1 hits. I Kissed a Girl, California Gurls, Roar, Part of Me
