Eminem's "The Monster" (featuring Rihanna)

barely squeaked by Justin Timberlake's

"Mirrors," moving into the Elite Eight with

just a few hundred more votes. That's good

news for Rihanna, whose single "Stay,"

despite a late surge, couldn't overcome

Lady Gaga's "Applause," which earned

52 percent of the final vote in the head-

to-head matchup. "Applause" will try to

keep rolling against Miley Cyrus'

"Wrecking Ball,"

On Wednesday (Mar. 19), we'll reveal

the four songs that won their Round 3

match-ups, and another round of voting

will begin. On Thursday, Mar. 27, a new Hot

100 March Madness champion -- the Top 5

song that you think was the hottest single of

the past year -- will be crowned. Vote now in

the match-ups below, and dig in deeper to

the Madness!

The 2nd time it's being covered on this show, never thought 'Applause' would have this type of impact, you'd think these hoes would cover TEOG instead, v nice cover anyway~
