RIHANNA GETS LOUDER: Rihanna’s “S&M,” the third single from her platinum album Loud, has gone to #1, following in the footsteps of “Only Girl (in the World)” and “What’s My Name,” giving the diva a total of 10 #1 hits, the most for any performer this decade. With over 150 million in listening audience, Rihanna’s “S&M” spawned the “S&M Remix,” with Britney Spears, which is currently heading to the top of the iTunes chart. "Rihanna's tenth #1 single is a monumental accomplishment and a testament to her incredible artistry," said Island Def Jam Music Group President/COO Steve Bartels. “And one day I hope to have her sign that Rolling Stone cover.” (4/20p)
