Billboard Hot 100, 1/3/2009

1. Single Ladies - Beyonce

New year, but no new single at #1, as Beyonce holds the top spot for a third week with "Single Ladies." Two year's ago Beyonce was #1 the first week of the year with "Irreplaceable," also a #1 holdover from the previous year.

4. Heartless - Kanye West

Kanye West moves up three spots to #4, the peak position the single achieved when it debuted 6 weeks ago. At that time though it was sales driven and now it's got airplay behind it (it's this week's Airplay Gainer) as "Love Lockdown" begins to fade.

19. Gives You Hell - All-American Rejects

All-American Rejects makes a hefty 18-spot jump to #19 with the Sales Gainer award to boot. This is the band's fourth top 20 hit. Their last, "It Ends Tonight," hit #8 just about 2 years ago.

32. I Hate This Part - The Pussycat Dolls

Pussycat Dolls score their 7th top 40 hit, following up recent #9 single "When I Grow Up."

34. Sober - Pink

Pink lands her 13th top 40 as "Sober" moves up 15 places to #34. It follows up her recent #1, "So What."
