Chart News: Perry breaks digital record

Katy Perry’s "Roar" drops out the top 10 this week, but it tops the 4 million mark in digital sales in its 17th week. That’s faster than any other song in digital history. Perry also held the old record: Her 2011 smash "E.T." (featuring Kanye West) topped the 4 million mark in its 18th appearance on Hot Digital Songs.

"Roar" is Perry’s seventh song to reach the 4 million mark. That’s more than any other artist. Rihanna in second place with five, and that includes two featured credits. (Perry is in the lead position on all seven of her mega-hits.)
