How can you not like her....10 million dollar smile?!

I'm liking the song more but it doesn't hold a candle to her other lead singles; we've expected Britney to deliver in that front for her entire career with big success ensuing. The change in market has dampened that prospect and her singles will have to climb traditionally.

I didn't realise this was reality and not a music video. I personally enjoyed; it accomplished what I required of it - a fun, camp video not to be taken too seriously. I must confess, this is not a philosophical masterpiece. Britney is adorable through; the end where she claps is too cute. They both look incredible; I still don't like that curly hair on Britney though lol and the dance scenes during the first half could've been edited better but overall I'm very happy. Now let's hope it climbs back into the top 10; I think it was postponed by 2 days to give leeway for the trash.....I mean Voice songs to fall down the charts as they would've otherwise blocked this at the height of its gain.

Wednesday.........perhaps.

A massive drop but I think it peaking at #46 was good. It'll climb with the video premiering, it's just a case of how high.

I wonder if we'll ever get a vocal like Slave again; the production on her voice is unusual in Pretty Girls. But it sounds fine on Tom's Diner. There's just something non-melodic about it.

Yup but without streaming it probably would've debuted in the top 50. Estimated to sell roughly 100,000 in the US which is pretty decent. Hopefully it sells a little over the 100,000 mark and not under.

Hold It Against Me was the last single to be playlisted by Radio 1; I know Capital played Till the World Ends. It's performing better than Work Bitch on all fronts; digital sales are lower in the US than they were when Work Bitch debuted so it's first week sales will be quite a bit lower. It's already surpassed 4.1 million views on YouTube; Work Bitch ended the tracking week with 5 million views (although I'm not sure about stats from the US since they're the only ones considered for the Hot 100). Hoping it clings to the end of the top 10 by the time the video debuts (in less than 4 days!)

For me the first verse is really poor but the rest is great. I love that random "OH YEAH" Iggy sings before her bridge starts. The bridge and chorus are great! I really like Iggy's verse too, I always look forward to the "..IIGGZZZ.."

Well if it's going to entice radio stations here to play the music then it's good to spread the word of it riding so high on the singles chart. Capital played it today around 2pm which is nice. Hope it's added to their playlist.

Ok now its really #2! :P

Apparently they're updated every Tuesday. :)

Does anyone see it at #2 on iTunes?

No problem man.

Kworb isn't a real time chart, it update every 2 hours or so. :)

Oh you can check it's progress here: http://kworb.net/pop/ The key global markets are available for viewing. Edit: Beaten to it :P

SHIT ON THE WALL SHE IS NOW #2 IN THE US!

Pos Artist and Title 0.4 2.6 1 Wiz Khalifa - See You Again (feat. Charlie Puth) 1.0000 1.0000 2 WALK THE MOON - Shut Up and Dance 0.5249 0.5244 3 Britney Spears & Iggy Azalea - Pretty Girls 0.4128 0.2819 She should easily take the #2 spot.

#5 in the US :cry: I really hope this is able to peak inside the top 10 officially. She needs another :platinum: (selling) single. Work Bitch is so close.

Quite unexpected too! Makes you wonder who the hell is awake during those hours downloading the song. :P I hope it hits #1 on iTunes at least. If not, #3.

Oh my god it's #56 in the UK now.

Hope Pretty Girls climbs to #1 in Ireland, it allows for a good prediction into its performance in the UK. That said, the charts in Ireland start tracking on a Thursday. If it was released on then it would probably be #1 due to the prospect of new releases that day rather than midweek as it would be now. All charts globally need to begin sales tracking on the same day.

I'm not sure if she'll be able to get to #1. She's currently selling around 33% of what the #1 is doing. But then again its not even 8am yet EDT. Hope now that everyone is starting to wake up it leaps forward.
