Justin Bieber, the newest 16-year-old pop-tart, lands at #1 this week on the Billboard 200 with his second album My World 2.0, which sold a robust 283,000 last week.
With his #1 debut, Bieber becomes the youngest solo male artist to top the Billboard 200 since August of 1963, when Stevie Wonder held the top spot for a week with Little Stevie Wonder/The 12-Year-Old Genius, when he was 13.
Bieber also has the #5 best-selling album in the country with his debut CD My World.
Pretty impressive for a sophomore in high school!
Coming in at the #2 spot this week is our girl Monica, who's album Still Standing sold a respectable 184,000 copies. Credit the strong opening sales to her latest single "Everything to Me", which is holding down the top spot on the R&B/Hip-Hop charts.
