She seems to have a lot more success with her singles than her albums. No real surprise that she is number one since she has been around for years and regularly releases new music.

Taylor Swift at 5 and Lil Wayne at 7 surprise me since neither are that big in Australia whereas all the others on the list have had a lot of success here.
