Billboard: Britney Spears' 'Hold It Against Me' Debuts Atop Hot 100

Britney Spears becomes just the second artist in the Billboard Hot 100's 52-year history to debut multiple songs at No. 1, as "Hold It Against Me" blasts in at the summit.

Spears previously launched at the apex with "3" the week of Oct. 24, 2009. She joins Mariah Carey as the only acts to arrive at No. 1 more than once. Carey made such grand entrances with "Fantasy" and "One Sweet Day" in 1995 and "Honey" in 1997. (All charts will be refreshed tomorrow (Jan. 20) on Billboard.com).

"Hold It Against Me" is the 18th song to debut at No. 1 and the first since Ke$ha's "We R Who We R" the week of Nov. 13, 2010.

The track is Spears' fourth No. 1 on the Hot 100. Prior to "3," she reigned with her debut single "...Baby One More Time" (two weeks, 1999) and "Womanizer" (one week, 2008).

Bret Michaels Nude On the Cover of *Billboard*

Is that why he stripped it off and flexed like a Muscle and Fitness model on the cover of Billboard. Yikes! I’ve never pictured Bret Michaels sans the leather get-ups, but apparently this is what he’s hiding underneath. Who knew?

Speaking of his fantastic fashion taste, when asked about his wardrobe choices in VH-1′s Rock of Love he said: “They wanted the 1986 Bret Michaels. My fans enjoyed the teased hair, the spandex. It was great, it was the time I lived in,” he said. “Who knew that spandex tucked into cowboy boots would ever go out of style? But for some strange reason, it did….Writers always use the phrase ‘aging rocker,’ and I’m like, “What other option do I have?” You’re either aging or you’re dead. So I’m embracing it,” he said.

We can all look forward to gazing at Bret Michaels once again in his new show ‘Life A I Know It’ set to air October 18th on Vh-1
