Top 15

YOUR TOP 15 (PLUS ONE): Universal appears headed to having an unprecedented nine of the Top 10 albums on next week's chart, with Lady Gaga (seen at right with the co-stars of her upcoming holiday special) leading the pack. Kelly Clarkson's holiday album, Wrapped In Red (RCA), is the lone non-UMG title. We don't believe this has ever happened in the modern charting era. Here's how it looks headed into the weekend:

*Lady Gaga (Interscope) 240-260k
Eminem (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope) 200-220k
*Now 48 (UMe) 95-105k
The Robertsons (EMI Nashville) 60-65k
Katy Perry (Capitol) 45-50
Kelly Clarkson (RCA) 40-45k
*The Beatles (Capitol) 35-40k
Drake (Young Money/Cash Money/Republic) 30-35k
Lorde (Lava/Republic) 30-35k
*Jhene Aiko (Def Jam/IDJ) 30-35k
Celine Dion (Columbia) 27-30k
Miley Cyrus (RCA) 25-28k
Luke Bryan (Capitol Nashville) 24-27k
Florida Georgia Line (Republic Nashville) 19-22k
Imagine Dragons (KidinaKorner/Interscope) 17-20k
Arcade Fire (Merge) 17-20k

In a related story, the 50-year anniversary of the Beatles' arrival in the U.S. makes us feel really freakin' old. (11/14p)
