Britney pretty girls chart position
will people be surprised if she enters top 10, I for one wasn't expecting a top 20 hit considering it's taken a long time to be released here but I'm shocked at how well it's doing on the iTunes chart remaining top 10 for 2 days, will this be an indication for its chart position

No, it won't.
It's been available to pre-order for the last 5-6 weeks and those sales count towards this weeks chart. In the first Music Week midweek chart report, Pretty Girls is #5. That's including all those pre-order sales from the last 5-6 weeks. However, to help unbalance the scales there is a lack of streaming. Pretty Girls is only holding up on iTunes because singles sales are low right now. Britney has so far peaked at #8 on iTunes - if the song continued climbing and made the iTunes top 5, that would help the song remain top 10 for Sunday. I suspect by this time tomorrow it will be out of the iTunes top 10 and will begin to freefall. This, along with lack of streaming, is what will push Pretty Girls down the official chart so that it ends up somewhere between 11-20 on Sunday. It will plummet down the chart next week. |

To be fair, it's Iggy Azalea who is selling this single.
If it was Britney Spears feat. Missy Elliott it wouldn't have gone anywhere near the iTunes top 10. I suppose the music video has helped. Even I think the video is quite funny but the song is really poor. It ain't no Toxic.

it's at #5 in todays midweeks with sales of just under 10k. I assume that includes preorders, which means it will fall rapidly over the coming days. If she's lucky she might manage to hold onto a place in the lower top 20 come Sunday. (I predict it'll end at around #16 to #18
)Personally I love it. One of her best in a while and it's a shame it's not getting supported. |

Iggy managed to get a much higher charting for Trouble in the UK, so I wouldnt say her current standing in celeb world is as low as in the US. |

The track is already at #10 in iTunes and falling, so I dont think its going to make Top 10.

Britney has been struggling in the U.K. for a while now. Lack of promotion can't be blamed, she promoted Work Bitch and that only peaked at #7 before dropping out of the chart. She needs better material if she wants another big hit. No one's checking for half-arsed Britney anymore, she needs to up her game and actually put some effort in. At this rate, the new album is going to tank like Britney Jean.

#8 in the midweeks, still hanging in in the top 10 on iTunes too, I know it ain't gonna do great but to hopefully make top 10 is great at this stage in her career

It makes me laugh with irony when you get female artists like Britney, Madonna and Avril Lavigne whose music has become more immature as they've got older. I never can work out who their target audience is when they do this. :s |

That's the thing. The type of singles Britney has released over these last few years have only really appealed to the die hard fans. I don't think Britney has won over new fans in the last 10 years - if anything her fans have moved on.

I think her hits have dried up because her singles have been very niche the past couple of years, Work Bitch and Pretty Girls are targeted towards specific demographics. Whereas songs like Oops, BOMT, Everytime, Toxic, Piece of Me, 3, Till the World Ends etc, these were all universal hits. Not to mention her team only seems to care about US promotion, and even that is sparse these days.
Having said that, I couldn't care less about chart positions, I just want a good album, nothing she comes out with could possibly be any worse than Britney Jean. |

Your havin a laugh, iggy has a very bad reputation at the moment, people are buying the song coz its Britney and at a push coz they like the song, never have I heard that iggy is the selling point In a Britney release, iggy brings nothing remarkable to the song it's all about Britney but that's just my opinion, personally I don't agree with you.

Iggy is far more relevant than Britney in the UK. Britney's last hit was in 2012 as feature artist.

It's flopped in the US. It's Britney's first lead single since 2003 to not make the top 20 on the Hot 100.

It's so sad to see how Pretty Girls is doing on the charts. Britney Spears once had a lot of potential--even after her breakdown.
