This will teach people to understand that Beyonce doesn't need a million hits. Unlike a lot of her peers, her hits are memorable and have longevity. I mean, she's #2 with only 5 #1's.
It's only from the artists with the Top 10 most weeks at number one.
Quote:
With 47 weeks at No. 1, Rihanna ties Usher** for the fourth-highest total in the Hot 100's history. Only Mariah Carey** (79 weeks), the Beatles** (59) and Boyz II Men** (50) have spent more time atop the survey. Below Rihanna and Usher, Michael Jackson has racked 37 weeks at No. 1, followed by Beyonce** (36), Elton John** (34), Janet Jackson** (33) and Madonna** (32).
Of those 10 artists to spend the most weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100, which have averaged the longest stays on top?
