Katy Perry's biggest Billboard Hits

[brady47]

10. Part of Me
9. The One That Got Away
8. Wide Awake
7. Last Friday Night
6. Teenage Dream
5. Hot N Cold
4. I Kissed a Girl
3. California Gurls
2. Firework
1. E.T

I'm pretty shocked that E.T was number one, I thought for sure Firework would take it! I also thought I Kissed a Girl would be below Teenage Dream and Hot N Cold because of lower longevity.

Um, Firework was ahead of ET in 2011 without even having a full chart run... I don't understand.

Billboard does this often for acts- why exactly is this a thread? Perhaps there should be a general thread, a compilation of all the act-based "Biggest" lists Billboard has done. Maybe I'll tackle it, eventually.

"E.T." was such a MONSTER! I still have that song in my playlists.

Is this really news?

I thought "Firework" was her biggest hit. :o

Great list, Ms. Perry has some pop gems under her belt. ;)

Wow, that is so true! Someone should ask Billboard this.

They very clearly noted that this list was done by an inverse point system based on position; which we all should know by now yields different results than the yearly/weekly lists which are based on chart points.
