Kelly Breaks Britney's Record

Kelly Clarkson will make history on this week's Billboard Hot 100, to be posted tomorrow (Jan. 29) on Billboard.com, with the largest leap to No. 1 in the chart's 50-year history. Her new single, "My Life Would Suck Without You," is set to rocket 97-1 after selling 280,000 digital downloads in its first week of availability. The song is also faring well at radio, jumping 58-38 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart and 27-18 on the Mainstream Top 40 list.

It'll be the biggest jump to No. 1 ever, surpassing Britney Spears' 96-1 vault with "Womanizer" last year. It will be her second chart-topper, following her debut single, 2002's "A Moment Like This."
