Katy Perry's new single 'Roar' has barely
been released for a week and has already
become the biggest digital debut of 2013 and
is projected to hit 525,000 sales before the
week is out.
If that wasn't enough, the track marks a career best
for Perry as 'Roar' looks set to trump all of her 2010
Teenage Dream hits including 'Firework' which sold
509,000 copies in its first week.
The American singer is also set to grab her eighth
Billboard No.1 later this week as 'Roar' looks set to
topple Robin Thicke's 'Blurred Lines' from top spot.
Perry has previously enjoyed seven US No.1 singles,
topping the charts with 'I Kissed A Girl', 'California
Gurls', 'Teenage Dream', 'Firework', 'E.T.', 'Last
Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)' and 'Part Of Me'.
Perry's forthcoming album, Prism is set to be released
on 22 October, 2013 and if lead single 'Roar' is
anything to go by, the LP will be one of the biggest-
selling pop records of the year.
'Roar' is yet to be released in the UK, which leaves
the chart-topping door about for Ellie Goulding who
looks set to score her first No.1 this week with her
single 'Burn' currently ahead in the British midweek
charts.
