　　This is the Top Five Countdown! Were hitting the five most popular songs in the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart, for the week ending May 17, 2014.

　　I was happy last week, Im walking on air this week: all the songs change places, with two new titles and a new champion! I just dont know what to do with myself.

　　Lets begin in fifth place, where Katy Perry and Juicy J fall two slots with Dark Horse. Is Katy feuding with Lady Gaga?

　　Last week, Lady Gaga took to Twitter to point out certain similarities between her stage show and Katys setup on her new Prismatic tour. Well see where this possible feud goes over the next few months - both women are on the road well into November.

　　Taking this weeks chart by storm is Australian newcomer Iggy Azalea - who jumps three slots to fourth place with Fancy featuring British singer Charli XCX. Iggy was born Amethyst Amelia Kelly in Australia. She traveled to the United States at age 16 and stayedwith the intention of becoming a rap star. Shes done just that: her debut album The New Classic opened in third place on the U.S. chart, and thats just the beginning

　　...because she shares this weeks Hot Shot Debut slot with another promising newcomer, Ariana Grande. They start strong in third place with Problem.

　　No problems here: written by Swedish hitmaker Max Martin, this cut came within a hairs breadth of snagging the championship: less than one tenth of one percent.

　　That means Pharrell Williams is even closer to regaining his crown after falling to number two with Happy. He recently revealed 25 secrets to US Magazine. Among the highlights: music makes him see colors, and hes constantly cold - thats one reason he moved to Miami.

　　John Legend finally gets a Hot 100 championship, as All Of Me rises to the top. He already has plenty of other honors: John Legend - real name John Stephens - has been making records since 2000, initially releasing them independently. He signed with Kanye Wests label and has since released four gold, platinum, or multi-platinum albums. Hes also won nine Grammy Awards, two NAACP Image Awards, and a British MOBO Award.

　　Thats it for now, but the charts never sleep. Come join us next week for a new lineup!
