Bye bye, Britney! Jay Sean’s “Down” featuring Lil Wayne bumps Britney Spears’s sexy new single “3″ out of the way to reclaim the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart this week, making it his second non-consecutive trip there.
After a record-breaking trek to the top in its debut week, “3″ falls all the way to No. 5.
The second big top then chart story this week comes from a group very, very familiar with this tier of the Hot 100: the Black Eyed Peas. Their third single from their album, The E.N.D., “Meet Me Halfway,” rockets 17-9. With radio play and digital downloads soaring, it’s not at all insane to wonder if the Peas will have another long run at No. 1 with the new track.
This week’s top ten singles according to Billboard:
- Jay Sean featuring Lil Wayne – Down
- Jason Derulo – Whatcha Say
- Miley Cyrus – Party In The USA
- Jay-Z featuring Rihanna and Kanye West – Run This Town
- Britney Spears – 3
- Lady GaGa – Paparazzi
- Owl City – Fireflies
- Black Eyed Peas – I Got A Feeling
- Black Eyed Peas – Meet Me Halfway
- Taylor Swift – You Belong With Me

Shamelessly and unapologetically reporting on all things pop music with a celebrity blog twist. Got tips or new music we should check out? Email us at 
No offense to the “NeonLimeLight Staff ” BUT the top 10 list is just all wrong ..plus some shouldn’t even belong! Starting with No 1#..Jay Sean’s “Down”…beating ANY SONG of Britney, let alone the other artist… smh?! Never. Perhaps, this generation is just forming its ear to a different song, and one that doesn’t neccessarily define “real talent” as we’d hope. On another note, what are your thoughts on the new musicial sensation t.v show “glee?”
this is from billboard dummy
britney cant always be #1
Correction: Perhaps, this generation is just forming its ear to a different sound*
“one that doesn’t neccessarily define “real talent†as we’d hope”???
What? I think Jay Sean is talented…He wrote his own songs…he even wrote ‘Deal with It’ by HSM’s Corbin Bleu which is also a good song btw…It has a Michael Jackson vibe in it…This new artist has the talent and POTENTIAL you know
