The single, released on RCA Records, is heading for a top 40 debut on the Billboard Hot 100 next week. (Highlights of the chart will post on Billboard.com on Wednesday, May 13, with the full chart to post the following day.) The track premiered May 4, after leaking a day earlier, and is off to a solid first week.
"Pretty Girls" is on course to sell upward of 100,000 downloads in its first week (ending May 10), according to industry forecasters. Again, that’s strong enough to propel the track onto the Hot 100, although such a sum would be off from the 174,000-download launch of Spears’ last new single, "Work B**ch!," in 2013 (according to Nielsen Music).
