Jessie J Tops UK Songs Chart

If anything, I'm just glad she's gone to the top with this Price Tag song because I happen to like it a lot more than her previous single. By the way, I just realized today it sounds like the type of song Natasha Bedingfield would sing. Maybe that's what it is.

From NME.com:

Jessie J has scored her first UK Number One single tonight (February 6).

The Brits Critics' Choice Award and BBC Sound Of 2011 poll-winner hit the top spot with her second single 'Price Tag' after holding off competition from Bruno Mars' 'Grenade', which stayed at Number 2.

Adele, Ke$ha Hit The Top In The UK

I've only heard a song or two from Adele but I do know she's huge in Europe so no surprise with her getting the No. 1 album. But what really struck me is Ke$ha getting her first No. 1 in the UK charts, and a No. 1 debut at that, with We R Who We R, especially since Britney Spears couldn't do it with Hold It Against Me. Yikes!
