Tomorrow will be very tough, but I think CMM can get those 10 weeks - after that it's gonna be Taylor debuting at #1 if she keeps this up. Or Whistle.......but please don't.

it won't debut on hot100 because she had 50+ AI today (

Awww, I want CMM just to get that one more week.

Lights would be cool too though.

30M!.. Billboard uses Nielsen numbers and they are real and not inflated like Mediabase..

Many songs in history reached #1 Hot 100 before its music video was released??????????????

I don't know if you are serious or you're just new..

Yep, some examples:

Adele - "Set Fire To The Rain" (NEVER HAD A PROPER MUSIC VIDEO, THAT SAYS A LOT)
Adele - "Someone Like You"
Britney Spears - "Hold It Against
Eminem - "Love The Way You Lie (feat. Rihanna)"
Eminem - "Not Afraid"
Katy Perry - "California Gurls (feat. Snoop Dogg)"
Katy Perry - "E.T. (feat. Kanye West)"
Katy Perry - "Part Of Me"
Ke$ha - "We R Who We R"
Lady Gaga - "Born This Way"
Rihanna - "What's My Name? (feat. Drake)"

I think most, or all the #1 debuts have done that..

More like 40M.
The billboard article mentioned this:

"Never" has accrued approximately 30 million in all-format radio audience in less than 24 hours

It should have been ~40M for part of 13.Aug and full yesterday.
