BLACK EYED PEAS TAKE THE LEAD

With one day left to go, the most exciting singles chart battle of the year in the UK is really hotting up. Our sources tell us that the Black Eyed Peas have nudged into the lead with Meet Me Halfway, leaving Leona around 2,000 copies behind.

Leona better pull something out of the bag – given the amount of money that’s been spent on this record she’ll be far from ‘Happy’ with the number 2 slot!

The UK charts could be the least of Leona’s worries though. In the US, by far her most important market, ‘Happy’ entered the Billboard chart at number 50, before plummeting to number 98. It has rebounded slightly this week at number 68, but all in all this is a shocking performance.

Don’t be surprised if Leona’s on the next jet bound for New York to promo-whore herself around any TV or Radio station that will have her!
