Artists with the most weeks inside the Hot 100 Top 10
The following is a list of artists who have accumulated the most weeks inside of the Billboard Hot 100 top 10 tier since the beginning of the 2010s. I compiled the list by simply summing up the total weeks that each artist appeared in the top 10. It includes all solo/lead and featured songs for each artist. This list is up to date as of last week's Hot 100 chart (dated June 15, 2013).
I will keep this list up to date every week as the Hot 100 list is posted. Did any of your faves make this list?
RIHANNA - 133 weeks
BRUNO MARS - 120 weeks
KATY PERRY - 102 weeks
NICKI MINAJ - 62 weeks
MAROON 5 - 60 weeks
KE$HA - 59 weeks
FLO RIDA - 58 weeks
PITBULL - 54 weeks
LADY GAGA & ADELE - 50 weeks

Unfortunately, 4 had no hits. I'm still proud of Bey since 4 went #1 on the Billboard 200. It probably takes some artists 7 albums to get a #1. Bey, her selling power.
Hard
Rude Boy
Love the Way You Lie
Only Girl (In the World)
What's My Name?
S&M
Cheers (Drink to That)
We Found Love
Take Care
Where Have You Been
Diamonds

Am I missing any?...
Also Impressive that she's had 7 #1s since then.
