So I just found out that JoJo was 13 when she made the song Leave (Get Out), I thought she was like 18 when she made that song, holy crap she is younger than I thought.

Nicole Scherzinger was asked to be the female new member of the Black Eyed Peas before Fergie but Nicole declined because her boyfriend at the time wasn't having it.

Phil Collins' "In The Air Tonight" peaked at #19 on Hot 100. I thought that was an obvious #1. "Sussudio" hit #1 though.......

Two more: 1. (Surprised no ones mentioned this): Young M.A. is a female 2. iLoveMakkonen is gay I hope there is sarcasm all up in here. Nicole Scherzinger was asked to be the female new member of the Black Eyed Peas before Fergie but Nicole declined because her boyfriend at the time wasn't having it. You should read the Nicole album(s) thread when her Behind the Scenes episode was released. Pure comedy through and through.

This is such a shame... I thought that White Walls and Same Love by Macklemore peaked in the top ten I thought that Often by The Weeknd reached the top 20 I thought that Stressed Out peaked on #1 I thought that Drake was Indian I thought that In The Night was an MJ cover... I though that Twenty One Pilots are new artists I thought that Pumped Up Kicks peaked on #1 and was the YE #1... And worst of all.. I thought that Maroon V has five members has 5 members and that Twenty One Pilots were a Korean or Japanese band with 21 members.... Ugh!!! To my defense I can say that I'm from Europe and that I started following Billboard in September. Of 2016. Everything prior that I knew was from my friend that is a chart geek.

I thought that In The Night was anMJ cover (...) The swing beat in the production is very similar to the one in MJ's own "The Way You Make Me Feel". The overall aesthetic of the song is very MJ.

The fact that Baby One More Time, Spears debut song, was #1 on EVERY.SINGLE.CHART.
Plus, the fact that Don't Speak didn't even crack the top 10 on the 1996 YE, because of some rule about not being released.
Finally, My Humps winning a Grammy.

That most of Vanessa Williams' hits were Whitney Houston rejects.
Most of Toni Braxton's debut album were Anita Baker rejects.
Pentatonix's "Coldest Winter" was a Kanye West cover.

I remember that way back when I first heard of Fleetwood Mac I thought that Stevie Nicks was the male singer and Lindsey Buckingham was the female singer because of their first names.

I remember being astounded when I found out that LeAnn Rimes was FOURTEEN when she put out "How Do I Live?" She looked and sounded like she was 30.

Taylor Swift's first top 10 was Change. I didn't know Change existed and had always assumed her first was Love Story.

Luis Fonsi is 39 and Daddy Yankee is 40. I thought they were both younger.

"Born This Way" by Lady Gaga was co-written and co-produced by one of the "Move Your Feet" singers from Junior Senior
That's a random connection

When I found out that Adele is actually two years older than her album titles The album titles reflect the age she was when she started working on them, that's why.

The fact that all this time, One Step At A Time is a rip-off of Minogue's All I Want, and it's by the same producer.
Also, when I was younger, I thought young MJ in the Jackson 5 was a girl.

After 3 pretty successful singles Promiscuous, Maneater, & Say It Right This flopped in the US and only made it to #86 on the Hot 100, I always thought it was as big as the rest cause I heard it as much as the other 3 singles before it
IMO these 4 singles in succession was amazing single selection

Maneater also didn't do well in the US. Mostly because as the song was climbing, they quickly cancelled it and moved onto Say It Right. I really don't know the reason as to why.
