Now, kiddies, I know, I know. Lady GaGa angers some of you. Look, she angers me, too—one week I hear it's GaGa, with two capital Gs, and the next it's only one. Dammit!At any rate, this week the Lady in question brings her recent European hit, "Paparazzi," over to the Billboard Hot 100, where it debuts at #74. As well, Wale's "Chillin'," which features squealing by Lady GaGa, enters the chart at #99, thereby bumping Whitney Houston's "I Look To You" up to #98.
We previously saw Wale in the Top 10 of the U.K. chart in February, when he featured on that hot piece Daniel Merriweather's single "Change." And as for Whitney, "I Look To You" will likely do the old hooker trawl up the chart next week, now that her full-length album is available and folks are downloading that track and "Million Dollar Bill" like barnyard animals feeding out of Whitney's trough.What the hell was I talking about? Oh, right—Lady GaGa. She's also still got "LoveGame" and "Poker Face" kicking around the upper half of the chart, at #24 and #41, respectively.
Elsewhere, Mariah Carey's "Obsessed" and Shakira's "She Wolf" are stuck at #11 and #12 yet again. Cascada threatens to have a second U.S. Top 40 hit, as "Evacuate The Dancefloor" moves up from #57 to #47, and Peal Jam debuts at #56 with "The Fixer."
Hoo-razzy.
