Eminem has become the first US
artist to have seven consecutive number ones in the UK album chart.
The rapper topped the UK album chart
on Sunday with his latest studio record, The Marshall Mathers LP 2.
But his collaboration with Rihanna,
The Monster, was knocked off the top of the UK singles chart by Storm Queen's
Look Right Through.
It was the first British number one
for the US DJ, who remixed the underground track to make it more
chart-friendly.
With Monster dropping to second,
Little Mix scored the next highest new entry with Move, the first single from
their upcoming second album, Salute.
Royals, from 16-year-old New Zealand
singer/songwriter Lorde, slipped two places to number four, while One
Direction's Story of My Life slid one place to number five.
Britney Spears scored her 23rd UK
top 10 single with Work Bitch at number seven.
Ed Sheeran's I See Fire, his first
new solo track for two years, went in at number 13. It features on the
soundtrack of the second instalment of Peter Jackson's Hobbit trilogy, The
Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.
Eminem's number one album is a
continuation of his first UK chart number one from 2000, The Marshall Mathers
LP.
2012 X Factor winner James Arthur
enjoyed a new entry at number two with his self-titled debut album.
Tinie Tempah's Demonstration, Andre
Rieu and Johann Strauss Orchestra's Music of the Night and The Overtones's
Saturday Night at the Movies were at three, four and five respectively,
ensuring this week's top five albums were all new entries.
Former Westlife star Shane Filan's
solo debut, You and Me, entered the chart at number six
