So it's pretty clear now that BAD ROMANCE is not going to hit #1 on Hot 100 right?

[tcatron565]

Definitely not this week, but next week there is a possibility. Just not this week. ESOM is still so much stronger on airplay than BR.

It definitely would have done better (so far), if it wasn't for that 3-track EP Bee's label released.

[nintendude666]

I read here somewhere that there will be a DECADE-END countdown? When's that, next week? Mariah or the BBP will be at the top, I guess.

VP was for Urban radio only, so that explains its sad run.

I agree, the airplay gap is to big. I hope that Bad Romance hits number one, but if things remain as they are for the enxt few weeks then the christmas sales boost may be the only shot it has at topping the Hot 100

[M.R.]

No. 42 - Mariah Carey (+10.0 million) All I Want For Christmas

This killed "H.A.T.E.U." totally.

Melanie Fiona smashing.

[arkl]

No. 32 - Cascada (+2.1 million)

They just wont quit without a fight.

[Jeiboy]

Mariah's xmas classic will smash again as usual

[FAN]

No. 8 - Kelly Clarkson (+2.0 million)
WTF! This was #5 yesterday!!

[Rico Shameless v2]

"Bad Romance" sales need to sustain for it to hit #1. Either that while airplay rises, or she gets big Xmas sales like "Just Dance" last year.

[BSNMology]

I love Bad Romance, but if it hits #1 on the Hot 100, I will be pissed.
Paparazzi is the best song she has ever released, and deserved to do better than Bad Romance, Poker Face and ****ing Just Dance.

The same thing happened with BEP. Stupid **** like Boom Boom Pow and I Gotta Feeling went straight to number one, but Meet Me Halfway, ONE OF THE BEST SONGS OF THEIR CAREER, was the one that decided it wasn't going to do well.

WTF. Get it together America.

I'm still voting for Paparazzi on radio.

And if Telephone gets to #1, I swear to god I'll hurt someone.

[Rico Shameless v2]

Well part is due to it being "Paparazzi" and "Meet Me Halfway" were later singles. Especially coming after the huge hits that came before.
