NEW YORK – This should help Ke$ha (KESH’-ah) get over that Grammy diss: Billboard has crowned her “Tik Tok” as the No. 1 song of the year.
The Grammys didn’t give Ke$ha any nominations last week, but she not only had the top song of the year, she was also Billboard’s No. 5 artist of the year.
The top act? Lady Gaga, followed by Taylor Swift, Eminem and Lady Antebellum.
As far as top songs, following “Tik Tok” were “Airplanes” by B.o.B featuring Hayley Williams; Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance”; Taio (TY’-oh) Cruz’s “Dynamite”; and Katy Perry’s “California Gurls” with Snoop Dogg.
Billboard’s top album was Susan Boyle’s debut, “I Dreamed a Dream,” followed by Eminem’s “Recovery,” Lady Antebellum’s “Need You Now,” Lady Gaga’s “The Fame” and Justin Bieber’s “My World 2.0.” (AP)
