The biggest Number 1 stars on the UK Official Albums Chart
The female solo star with the most albums to hit the top, and in joint second place overall, is Madonna, of course. She first hit the top in 1985, when her sophomore album Like A Virgin finally reached Number 1 in its 44th week on the Official Albums Chart, and most recently found herself top of the pile in 2012, with MDNA, her 12th chart-topper (if you include the Evita soundtrack, which we do). When it comes to weeks at number 1, Madonna's scored 30, and was recently overtaken by Adele as female artist with most weeks at the top. her longest run was 1990's hits retrospective Immaculate Collection, one of the biggest selling albums of all time, which notched up nine straight weeks.
Madonna is The most successful and influential female artist of all time.
Random but I just read that Hung Up was #1 in Canada for 15 weeks
Good times
#1 on the airplay chart for 4 weeks too. I always wondered why Canada were incredibly loyal to her compared to the US, even up until GAYL which was a Canadian #1 in 2012.
