Madonna Poised For Chart - Topping Double

Madonna is poised to confirm her Queen of Pop reputation by topping both the singles and albums charts this weekend.
Her hot new LP, Confessions On A Dance Floor, has sold nearly 250,000 copies since going on sale on Monday and is poised to become the biggest-selling album of the year.
However the debut album of Potty Pete Doherty's new band Babyshambles has failed to spark much enthusiasm among music lovers since also being released on Monday. Down In Albion is poised to enter the chart at around No 6.
Meanwhile Madonna's single, Hung Up, has sold nearly twice as many copies as Westlife's You Raise Me Up, confirming her superstar status.
Gennaro Castaldo, of music retailers HMV, said Madonna's achievement was a fantastic double and showed that she was worthy of her place in the pantheon of pop royalty.
He said: "Both the album and her single Hung Up have been a massive event in the shops. We have struggled to fill the shelves back up quickly enough. She is a real superstar, the mere mention of her name causes a frenzy.
"It will be a double number one and the strange thing is Westlife will now have the honour of a double number two.
"Madge has another huge hit on her hands here. Everybody is humming the single and I have not read a bad review of the album.
"On the other hand Babyshambles will only appeal to a small fan base."
