Justin Bieber Breaks World Record

Justin Bieber's My World 2.0 returned to #1 on The Billboard 200, replacing Usher's Raymond V Raymond, which debuted in the top spot last week, reports Yahoo! Justin is the youngest male solo artist ever to top the chart for two or more weeks. Ricky Nelson was 17 in 1958 when he topped the chart for two weeks with Ricky. Stevie Wonder's Little Stevie Wonder/ The 12 Year Old Genius, released in 1963 when he was 13, managed just one week on top.

My World 2.0 has sold 676,000 copies in its first three weeks. It took Justin's My World EP seven weeks to sell that many copies. My World 2.0 has sold more copies in three weeks than Jonas Brothers' latest studio album, Lines, Vines And Trying Times, has sold in its entire run. Jonas Brothers' album has sold 635,000 copies since its release in June. 'Baby' has sold 1,525,000 digital copies and 'One Time' has sold 1,815,000 copies in the past 40 weeks
