Lady Gaga Makes Billboard History With ‘Bad Romance’

Billboard’s Pop Songs radio airplay chart has been topped again by Lady Gaga, this time with ‘Bad Romance’. The accomplishment marks a first in the survey’s 17-year history, with the 23-year-old landing her first five singles in the #1 spot. The other four #1s off ‘The Fame’ were ‘Poker Face’ (five weeks, beginning April 25), ‘LoveGame’ (two weeks, beginning July 25) and ‘Paparazzi’ (two weeks, beginning Nov. 14).

“Just six months ago, ‘Bad Romance’ was nothing but a dream, a recurring melody, a lyric hidden on a napkin on my tour bus,” Lady Gaga told Billboard.com. “Now, it’s my fifth No. 1 record, and a reminder to fans to always follow their dreams. I would like to thank all my beautiful little monsters and my incredibly supportive team for the most memorable year of my life. To have had such a phenomenal reception to my second album, ‘The Fame Monster,’ is life-changing.”
