The Number One Hits of 2010

2010 is now in the rearview mirror, so I thought I'd reach back and pull out all the lucky songs that were able to reach the very top of the charts. Only 17 songs made it to the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in 2010. Of these 17, it was Katy Perry and Rihanna who had the most #1s with six between them. Other pop divas to make the cut included Ke$ha and P!nk, so woman pretty much ruled 2010. It's also clear that there's not too much diversity in the list. No country and no rock singles were able to break through to the #1 spot, so if that bothers you this is not the list for you. But if you want to check out the most popular songs of 2010, dig in.
