Colby, Beyonce, Bradley... Gaga is queen of collabs, having only topped the UK chart twice as a solo artist.

How annoying.

What do you mean? I don't think anyone believes that Gaga relies on collaborations to have success... not at all. In fact sometimes I'd like her to be more open to collaborate with other people as long as they are interesting enough, especially between Β albums.

This week she has 3 songs in the UK top30. Β #1 album and the #1 movie of the last two weeks. Β I’m sure Interscope are whispering in her ear about doing some promo in the UK, but I guess she is too busy with Vegas rehearsals. Β Imagine if she did INLA on X Factor and Strictly later in the year.

at least she is the main artist on all the songs. She is never just a feauture like Nicki Minaj.

I would love her to slay us on X Factor. I'd love her to do Hair Body Face on there with Richy and the gang and i want full choreo slayage.

I am so happy for her and so proud. I live in the UK and have seen that loads of people are really impressed with this movie, the soundtrack and the fact that Gaga can act. I've seen so many people getting converted and it's glorious.Β :firega:

Beyond happy! This was actually the news I was greeted with when I logged onto GGD first thing, which I was kinda bummed out about because I prefer the #1 reveal to be a big surprise and I scroll up from #100 so it's a big deal and it would have sent me into orbit in this case! But I ultimately don't mind, this achievement plus a #1 album and a #1 movie simultaneously means she has done the super-hard-to-achieve triple whammy achievement. As I understand it, is she the first to do this? I believe J Lo was the first person to have a #1 album and a #1 movie in the same week but I don't think she had a #1 single into the bargain. I don't know about Madonna's Evita achievements in that line either. Will have to do research.

But...8 years. Damn, that feels good. It just shows it is possible after a low point, even after an extended period of time. Does this mean she's officially a legend now? Going to #1 after 8 years of no joy with an original song that doesn't feature a generic artist and isn't a very popular style of music right now? That's gotta be legend material. It feels so good to know she's got 5 UK #1's now because on all the lists of "most UK #1's," you normally have to have at least 5 to qualify on the ranked list. Just last month, the UK charts made such a list and Gaga just missed out obviously but now she does qualify! This also means that she's had a solo #1 (as in she's not a featured verse) more recently than Drake (April 2018), Ed Sheeran (January 2018), Taylor Swift (2017), Little Mix (2016), Adele (2015), Ariana Grande (2014), Katy Perry (2013) and Rihanna (2012), to name a few. Just let that sink in for a moment. She's doing better than artists who are younger/more relevant to the youth market and/or are making more chart-friendly music right now. SHE DID THAT.
