The only thing left that would make matters worse if she debuts @ #11.

Is the chart coming out earlier than usual? That could mean that we have a new #1.

I think people in the industry get the information a bit before.

It happens in the UK too, sometimes artists tweet where they chart hours before the chart is officially revealed.

P!nk also tweeted that JGMAR was #1 earlier this year, IIRC.

Aww Merlin when Arthur was dying.

But seriously, I guess Robin Ticke is still #1? This week is bittersweet for me, I want BL to break the record but I wouldn't mind Katy having her #1 either. I hope Gaga can debut in the top 10.

[Beatz]

I can't at 218k being 'pretty good' for Gaga.

Little monsters and some people were predicting, less than 2 weeks ago, 400k.

Oh God i'm crossing my fingers for Katy to be #1. Her sales are huge

Hmm how is it possible for her to know that before hand?

Pop stars really do care.

Because billboard obviously does the math and calculations before hand and then write the article. They actually calculate the entire top 100 prior to writing the article because in the article last week they state Katy debuted at #85 with Roar. So they probably inform the artists whom are top 10 while they calculate the rest of the Hot 100 and wrote up the article.

THE DESPERATION.

Wasn't her music just for her fans though? Why is she so desperate to chart high? The coherence. If she doesn't get that #3 spot on the Hot 100 I can only imagine the dragging.

You are very bitter dear... Let me buy your fave's least commercial effort MDNA!

[GaGaFan]

Ugh I really want Katy to be number one this week but IDK if she can...

not necessarily.

[Cap10Planet]

I want Robin at #1 for at least two more weeks, then Katheryn can have it.

Mess @ Gaga's tweets.
She is perched waiting for that chart position.

Thanks. It makes sense, I always heard people talking about singers tweeting about their chart positions and it always made me curious.

APPLAUSE #1 IN NEW RULE THAT COUNTS PRE-ORDERS AS SINGLE SALES
