Pop Songs
*** No. 1 *** "Wide Awake" Katy Perry

Katy Perry matches Rihanna's record for the most No. 1s in the almost 20-year history of Billboard's Nielsen BDS-based Pop Songs chart, as "Wide Awake" rises 2-1. With the coronation, Perry and Rihanna each boast nine No. 1s. The mark is even more impressive given that while the chart launched the week of Oct. 3, 1992, Rihanna didn't first grace the list until 2005 and Perry didn't arrive until 2008. Of the acts with the most No. 1s on the chart, the top seven are women.
