Rihanna Breaks New Record With 20 Top 10 Singles

Rihanna just snagged the 20th
top 10 single of her career with
her new hit "We Found Love,"
and the 23-year-old pop star
earned the honor faster than
any solo artist in history.
Sprinting to 20 top 10s in six
years and four months, Rihanna
beat a longstanding record held
by Madonna. In 1990, Madge
chalked up her 20th top 10 hit
with the song "Hanky Panky," six
years and nine months after her
first single "Holiday" cracked the
top tier. Rihanna's run claims the
record by five months. The only
artist to reach 20 top 10s faster
than RiRi is the Beatles, who
invaded the charts with 20 hits
between 1964 and 1966,
beginning with "I Want to Hold
Your Hand" and extending to
"Yellow Submarine." "We Found
Love," a passionate club anthem
produced by Calvin Harris, is
number nine on the Billboard
Hot 100 in its second week. The
song is the first single from
Rihanna's sixth album, Talk That
Talk, due November 21.
