(Photo: Splash News Online) Taylor Swift's album Fearless embarks on its seventh week as number 1 on the Billboard charts. The last time an artist accomplished that was in 2004, when Usher logged 9 weeks with Confessions. Swift sold 63,000 copies in the U.S. this week.
Beyonce snagged the number 2 spot with I Am...Sasha Fierce selling 49,000 copies while Nickelback's Dark Horse drops from 2 to 3 -- but just barely -- after selling 46,000 recordings.
The soundtrack for the film Notorious starts its run at an impressive number 4 while Kanye West drops to number 5, from 3, with 808s and Heartbreak.
