Last week, Katy Perry kissed off all of the competition as she climbed all the way to the top of the countdown. Can she make it two weeks in a row? She faces stiff competition from Natasha Bedingfield, who was hot on her heels last week but fell just short at #2. Will “Pocketful Of Sunshine” have enough to reclaim number one this time? And hey, don’t count out Leona Lewis. Her hit “Bleeding Love” (which has already spent an amazing 8 weeks at #1) retires this week. Of course, Leona fell hard last week all the way to #18, but your votes have given her a strong push back towards the top. Will it be enough for her to retire at #1?

Congratulations to Natasha Bedingfield’s “Pocketful Of Sunshine” for reaching the top spot for a third week. Also, a big congratulations is due as well for Leona Lewis. She literally came up just a few points short of retiring at #1. Regardless, 8 weeks at #1 and 20 weeks on the countdown is a massive accomplishment for “Bleeding Love.”
So, what will happen next week? Rihanna and The Pussycat Dolls made huge surges this week, both making it back into the top 5. But will either get enough to get back to #1? Or what about Katy Perry? Sure, she fell out of the driver’s seat this week, but not far. Can “I Kissed A Girl” reclaim the countdown crown? Or will Natasha Bedingfield reign as countdown champion again? Be sure to vote, and check back next week to find out!
