ATRL Official Billboard Hot 10
Welcome to the ATRL Hot 10. The ATRL Hot 10 will rank artists according to their popularity on ATRL. I will rank popularity on A) Comments and B) Views of threads. For an artist to rank in the ATRL Hot 10, their threads must be on the first page of the 'Music News' forum, or 'Videos' forum . If they are not on the first page, their views or comments will not be counted as they will be classed as irrelevant. The counting of comments and views will take place on a random each week. From there, every 1,000 views or 100 comments will = to 1 point for that artist. It's very simple really.
Counting System
Sections that will be counted: Music News + Videos.
To be counted in the music section, the artist must have over 15,000 views on their thread, or it will not be counted due to other artists over-shadowing their efforts, and making more time for me to count those flop artists. If an artist has reached 1 million views or more, they will be rewarded 1,000 points for each million views, instead of individual values such as 1234, for 1,234,000 views. (It will just be 1,000 points).
Threads in the videos section will only be counted if its A) A music Video or B) A Live Performance. Any other thread will not be counted.
Also if an artist has not been registered on my list on my count of the music section, they are void to be counted in the music videos section, again saving me time.
All other sections will not be counted as it does not relate to music. (Polls section is far too messy!).
Every Sunday, I will update the chart on this post, and in a new post in this thread.

#10 (LW: 10)
Artist: Shakira
Points: 150
Current Talking Point: None
Comment: Shakira again enters at #10 this week, holding up strong with no hits. Shakira's sexy latin ass is enough to keep the closet gays on ATRL in the closet for an extra few months.
#9 (LW: 7)
Artist: Nicki Minaj
Points: 265
Current Talking Point: Showing Lil' Kim how not to be a flop and 'Pink Friday'.
Comments: Classed as the new Lil' Kim, Nicki stans keep Nicki on top of ATRL. Although Nicki fell two places, she remains a strong talking point on ATRL, and at least she is not a flop like certain other gurls on the forum
#8 (LW: 9)
Artist: Rebecca Black
Points: 285
Current Talking Point: 'Friday' and Having Paparazzi
Comments: Queen Becky storms up one place on the chart, taking the other flop gurls by surprise! Your flop faves could never

Artist: Christina Aguilera
Points: 355
Current Talking Point: Going to Jail, Gaining Weight,
****ty Intimate Pics Emerging
Comment: ATRL have finally put Christina into some kind of top 10 today by talking about her constantly. Christina's new copy of X Factor show, 'The Voice', and her new "intimate" pics are keeping her one of the most discussed artists on ATRL.
#6 (LW: 6)
Artist: Avril Lavigne

Current Talking Point: Second Smash Hit from Masterpiece Goodbye Lullaby and Future smash hit with Gym Class Heroes.

stolen self-written hit that will no doubt storm the charts. ATRL is excited to see what she brings to the table against Gaga, Britney and Queen Becky!
#4 (LW: 5)
Artist: Katy Perry
Points: 590
Current Talking Point: New Music Video for
Avatar E.T.
Comments: Katy has went #1 again, causing everyone to go crazy and compare her to Michael Jackson. Michael could never get those 2 million album sales Katy got
#3 (LW: #3)
Artist: Rihanna
Points: 2310
Current Talking Point: Loud, California King Bed.
Comment: Rihanna's new era is almost over with 4 singles in already. But don't worry, she will have a 5th album out by November.
#2 (LW: 1)
Artist: Madonna Lady Gaga
Points: 3320
Current Talking Point: Born This Way (Album and Single)
Comment: Lady Gaga has missed out on the #1 spot for the 2nd time this week. Awkward.
#1 (LW: 2)
Artist: Britney Spears
Points: 3340
Current Talking Point: Two Singles in top 40, Femme Fatale
Comment: Britney's one week hits is covered up by the fact she's a legend, and everyone can DEAL
27/3/11#10
Artist: Shakira
Points: 50
Comment: Shakira makes a respectable entry at #10. Shakira has had no mainstream hits in 2011, yet maintains a popular status within the ATRL community.
#9
Artist: Rebecca Black
Points: 70
Comment: The Queen of pop, Becky, is storming up the chart to show the lessors how it's done
She makes most gurls mad at her undeniable success
#8
Artist: Jennifer Lopez
Points: 90
Comment: This position is not impressive especially due to the fact that Jennifer has a huge single out at the moment and an album out in May. Jennifer has the potential to be top 5. She may gain more popularity within ATRL in the near future.
#7
Artist: Nicki Minaj
Points: 250
Comment: Nicki gives the first decent points of the chart. Nicki is huge right now and will have longevity to stay in the top 10 every week.
#6
Artist: Avril Lavigne
Points: 300
Comment: Avril has charted high this week due to her new album release, and 'What The Hell' staying consistent on the i-tunes chart creating a lot of discussion for fans. The haters also add to her thousands of views and comments, giving her a respectable position this week.
#5
Artist: Katy Perry
Points: 320
Comment: Katy is on her 4th single and her album has been out for nearly a year now, yet Katy still remains to be one of the most discussed artists on ATRL at the moment. One of the latest hot topics on ATRL is Katy's single 'E.T.' closing on Gaga's 'Born This Way' on the Billboard Hot 100, making the Gaga stans mad as hell!
#4
Artist: Beyonce
Points: 420
Comment: Queen Bey as her stans call her has charted in the top 5 with no new music. Either her stans have a lot of time on their hands or queen Bey is actually the queen. Will she shoot to #1 once her single is released?
#3
Artist: Rihanna
Points: 1600
Comment: Rihanna breaks away from Beyonce by over 1100 points giving Rihanna the biggest lead from an artist behind her. Rihanna has had several #1's and has had stan bases from all over ATRL mad due to her selling millions of units of BOTH Albums and singles.
#2
Artist: Britney Spears
Points: 2700
Comment: Britney has an impressive collection of points here. Although Britney's threads are filled with both hate and love comments, it doesnt change the fact that Britney makes people talk, and if she can do that she will continue her legendary run in the music industry.
#1
Artist: Lady Gaga
Points: 2800
Comment: A predictable position for Lady Gaga to be in seeing as she is now currently #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has been for the past 6 weeks. Stans are mad everywhere, and people will rejoice once Katy knocks her off the top spot. Gaga surely won't care though as her second single Judas will come back to slay in May.
