Fret not, former Destiny's Child member Kelly Rowland, for you may have been ditched by your label here in the States, but your David Guetta dance jam "When Love Takes Over" has now topped the U.K. singles chart!This gives now gives Guetta a simultaneous #1 single in Ol' Blighty and a #2 single—with Black Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling"—in the States.
Elsewhere in the U.K. Top 10, Lady Gaga crashes in at #8 with "Paparazzi," making it her third straight Top 10 hit there. Over here, we got "LoveGame" as her third official single, which sits at #5 on this week's Billboard Hot 100.
And Take That clown their way to #9 with "Said It All," the band's third single off The Circus, and 18th overall Top 10 hit in their home country.Meanwhile, just as Kelly Rowland found salvation with a dance producer after a testy relationship with her label, Sophie Ellis-Bextor has teamed up with Freemasons for the single "Heartbreak Make Me A Dancer," in at #15. (She's also worked with Calvin Harris, Cathy Dennis and Groove Armada for her upcoming fourth album).
Here's the "Heartbreak Make Me A Dancer" vid:
On a final note, Blazin' Squad go down, but not in a blaze of glory. Their comeback single "Let's Start Again" makes a dismal debut at #51. Let's stop again, lads.
