Fourth week for Katy Perry at top of UK charts

01/09/2008

Katy Perry's I Kissed A Girl has held on to the UK number one spot for the fourth week in a row.

The 23-year-old held off the challenge of Eric Prydz to crown a month at the top of the singles charts.

Rihanna's Disturbia climbed one place to number three while Biffy Clyro rose five places to number five with Mountains.

Though the Verve's Love is Noise fell two places to number nine, their new album Forth debuted at the top of the charts.

Slipknot's fourth album All Hope is Gone opened at number two while Somewhere, a new collection of Eva Cassidy recordings, charted at number four.

King of Pop, a Michael Jackson best of compilation for which fans were able to vote to decide the tracklisting, completed the top five in the album chart.
