Britney's Power

wa.. wa.. wa.. On Oct15, 08, Britney's brand new single "Womanizer" made a record-breaking jump to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 breaking the record set by T.I.'s "Live Your Life" which jumped from number eighty to number one the week before. It also garnered first-week download sales of 286,000, the biggest opening-week tally by a female artist since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking digital downloads in 2003, topping Mariah Carey's take for "Touch My Body" by just over 200 units. This marked Spears's first number one single on the Hot 100 since her debut "Baby One More Time".
