As 'Dark Horse' reigns for a fourth week, Perry rewrites the mark for the most total weeks (46) at No. 1 in the airplay chart's archives Katy Perry claims the record for the most weeks at No. 1 in the 21-year history of Billboard's Pop Songs radio airplay chart all to herself, as "Dark Horse," featuring Juicy J, spends a fourth week on top, upping her career count to 46 weeks at No. 1. With her latest frame in the lead, Perry pa**es Mariah Carey, who's totaled 45 weeks at No. 1 Here's an updated look at the acts to spend the most time at No. 1 dating to the Oct. 3, 1992, launch of the Nielsen BDS-based tally, which measures the most weekly plays at mainstream top 40 stations: Weeks at No. 1, Artist 46, Katy Perry 45, Mariah Carey 32, P!nk 32, Rihanna 29, Ace of Base 26, Maroon 5 25, Christina Aguilera 23, Beyonce 23, Boyz II Men 23, Nelly Perry has earned her record-breaking feat courtesy of 11 Pop Songs No. 1s, also a chart best-sum, which she shares with Rihanna. (Notably, the careers of artists like Carey and Boyz II Men pre-date the Pop Songs chart's inception.) Of Perry's 11 leaders, "Horse" is the eighth to rule for at least four weeks.

It pa**ed the 16,065 plays that her prior topper, "Roar," drew on the Oct. 19, 2013, chart In addition to its pop airplay success, "Horse" topped the all-format airplay/sales/streaming-based Billboard Hot 100 chart, where it's her ninth career No. 1.
