    News has already broken that Lady Gaga's ARTPOP will debut at no. 1 in the U.K. charts, and there's a solid chance it will do the same in the United States.

  • Katy Perry and 'Prism' Dominate Bad Album Sales Week

    The bad news for the music industry: This week was a weak one for album sales, totaling around 4.54 million total records sold, the lowest weekly total since Nielsen began compiling the stats in 1991.

For now, here's the results from last week's sales.

"We Can Survive," the name of the show, will pull double duty: More importantly, all of the proceeds raised will benefit the Young Survival Commission, which helps young women suffering from breast cancer. As a side note, the show will also go down the day after Perry's "Prism" debuts, and the pop star will have plenty of girl power in support.
