Gaga's Born This Way is Billboard's 1,000th #1 Hit

Unless you've been hiding under a rock over the last three days you'll know that Lady Gaga's epic new single Born This Way has smashed a multitude a records worldwide.

The latest smash seems to be doing no wrong for Miss Gaga. As of this week the track debuts at #1 on the Billboard charts, the 19th song in the history of the chart to do so (it's predecessor being only a few weeks ago - Hold It Against Me by Britney Spears).

In addition to this tremendous feat, the track is the 1,000th song to achieve to coveted top spot. And, the most amazing part about that is that the track managed to very easily secure the top spot after being available to download after only two days. TWO DAYS. Earlier today Gaga took to her Facebook account to say the following:

"Thank You so much to Radio+Monsters for making Born This Way the 1000th #1 in Billboard History. Thank You for believing."

Clearly she's happy. You can tell 'casue she said the word monster. So there.

In case you're still having trouble identifying with the fact that Lady Gaga is AMAZING or that she completely and utterly rules the pop world at the moment, let me point out these little bits of information:

+ In a recent interview with Jay Leno, Gaga answers a question about the so-called similarities between Born This Way and Madonna's Express Yourself. In her response Gaga admits to being one of Madge's biggest fans. True story. See the interview here on Chart Rigger's blog. [VIDEO]

+ Gaga cleaned up with another three Grammys at the weekend awards. That takes her total to FIVE over a period of two years. Beat that haters.

+ There is clearly NO COMPARISON between Gaga and Miss Spears. Whilst Britney is teasing fans with her upcoming video for Hold It Against Me, the song is sliding down global charts quicker than Britney can say bring-it-on-I'll-take-you-down-I'm-Britney-bitch. Hmmm. All I see is Gaga's Born This Way smashin' her records.

+ She is the Mother Monster. Paws up.
