Ladies and gentlemen, (drum roll please)… [mp3com-artist]Katy Perry[/mp3com-artist] is the new queen of pop, reaching [mp3com-artist]Michael Jackson[/mp3com-artist]-level success and becoming the second artist in the 53-year-history of the Hot 100 chart to produce five No. 1 singles off the same album.

Not since [mp3com-artist]Madonna[/mp3com-artist] has a  saucy songstress taken sass and success this far. It seemed like just yesterday we heard the 2008 bi-curious hit single “I Kissed A Girl,” and three years later, the global pop superstar is making history. Here’s to Perry making her teenage dream come true!
