Thursday Billboard Update - 4/21/11

Foo Fighters
New #1 this week and its Foo Fighters' Wasting Light selling 235,000.

There's also a new #1 on the Hot 100 as Rihanna grabs her 10th #1 record with S&M besting Katy Perry's E.T. featuring Kanye West. (This makes me happy for no other reason than it gives me an excuse to post this .gif picture.) Anyway, Lady Gaga's Born This Way falls out of the top 10, and is replace at #10 by Gaga's new single Judas.
