Posted April 17, 200817 yr Leona Lewis Returns To No. 1 On The Hot 100 April 17, 2008, 9:45 AM ET After vacating the top spot last week to Mariah Carey's "Touch My Body," Leona Lewis' "Bleeding Love" returns to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with a 2-1 jump. Lewis thus becomes the first British-born artist to simultaneously top the Billboard 200 and Hot 100 since Phil Collins in 1990 and first female since Olivia Newton-John in 1974. As reported yesterday, Lewis' "Spirit" (Syco/J) debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200. However, Carey is likely to take the top spot next week with "E=MC2" (Island Def Jam), which posted first-day sales of 154,000 units, according to Nielsen SoundScan's Building Chart. http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003790781
