Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream has arrived at the top of the UK album charts.
The ‘California Gurls’ singer’s sophomore effort is a marked improvement on her first release One Of The Boys, which failed to crack the Top 10 upon its release in 2008.
Its success pushes Eminem’s Recovery down to the runner-up position for only the third time in its 11 weeks of release, one spot ahead of Biffy Clyro’s Only Revolutions, which climbs 24 places to return to the top five.
Elsewhere in the Top 10, two more albums – The Pretty Reckless with Light Me Up and Disturbed’s Asylum – make their debuts, landing at six and seven respectively.
Meanwhile, Lissie’s Catch A Tiger re-enters the top 40 after climbing a massive 30 places to 12, while Iron Maiden’s The Final Frontier goes the opposite way, plummeting 15 places from three to 18, one spot behind a new entry from Everything Everything, entitled Man Alive.
The Top 10 in full:
1. (-) Katy Perry: ‘Teenage Dream’
2. (1) Eminem: ‘Recovery’
3. (27) Biffy Clyro: ‘Only Revolutions’
4. (7) Mumford & Sons: ‘Sigh No More’
5. (4) Arcade Fire: ‘The Suburbs’
6. (-) The Pretty Reckless: ‘Light Me Up’
7. (-) Disturbed: ‘Asylum’
8. (6) Lady GaGa: ‘The Fame Monster’
9. (5) Eliza Doolittle: ‘Eliza Doolittle’
10. (2) Plan B: ‘The Defamation Of Strickland Banks’

Snoop Dogg is in a “let’s do it again” type of mood.
The rapper announced plans to work with Katy Perry again after the pair’s “California Gurls” collaboration shot to the top of the iTunes singles chart this week. (Perry’s album, Teenage Dream, also hit #1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart this week.)
“We’re trying to get together and do something on my new album … so [I'm] definitely in contact with her,” Snoop told OK! magazine about Perry. “She’s a sweet girl and I had fun making the record with her. Like I said, I’m looking forward to her being on my record as well.”
The album in question is Doggystyle 2: The Doggumentary.
Snoop announced he’s revisiting his classic debut album in a BubbleTweet video message sent over Swizz Beatz’s Twitter account.
Snoop and Swizz were in a studio session and revealed they had recorded upwards of 18 new tracks together.
“Man, this is big Snoop Dogg coming to you live from the studio somewhere,” Snoop said in the clip. “With Swizzle, and he just laced my boots up for my new record. He gave me some gangster sh–, some Crip sh–, some R&B sh–, some hip-hop sh–, some hard sh–, some mean sh–.”
The Los Angeles lyricist then revealed the name of his next album before the clip cut off.
Snoop’s Doggystyle was released in November 1993. The collection was produced by Dr. Dre and, along with Dre’s The Chronic, helped solidify the West Coast’s reign atop the hip-hop game. It still remains one of the best-selling debuts in hip-hop history.
Last month, Snoop revisited his debut project as a part of this year’s Rock the Bells tour, which had performers playing seminal albums in their entirety. Also on the bill were Lauryn Hill (The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill), A Tribe Called Quest (Midnight Marauders), KRS-One (Criminal Minded), Rakim (Paid in Full) and the Wu-Tang Clan (Enter the Wu-Tang [36 Chambers]).

Brits rejoice! Lovely Katy Perry has said she wants to become one of us when she marries Russell Brand later this year.
In quotes used by The Sun the Teenage Love singer said she wants to have dual nationality after they’re legally wed.
She explained: “When I get married next month, one of the first things I’ll do is apply for dual citizenship.
“I’m not too sure if I have to take a test as I’ve not had time to look into it. But England is like my second home.”
The star has been spending more and more time on our shores since getting together a year ago. She’s even been spotted at a West Ham game with Russ!

Pop sensation Katy Perry will rock Vienna next month, it has been announced.
Online music and events platform Britishrock.cc reports today (Thurs) that the 25-year-old singer from Santa Barbara, California, USA, is set to hit the stage at Vienna’s Arena concert hall on 6 October.
Perry rose to fame with “I Kissed a Girl” in 2008. The song topped the charts in several countries in the world before she managed to repeated the triumph with follow-up single “Hot n Cold”. Both songs reached number one on the Austrian Singles Chart.
Her third album “Teenage Dream” was released earlier this month.
Perry’s performance of her two biggest hits sitting in a huge shell sailing down from the roof of Vienna City Hall is regarded as the highlight of the opening ceremony of last year’s Life Ball.
It was also announced recently that Danish pop siren Aura Dione will come to Austria for two concerts (Vienna, 23 November; Linz, 24 November) before US pop-punk band Good Charlotte will perform in Vienna on 21 January 2011.

Katy Perry does double duty at No. 1 this week on both the Billboard 200 albums chart and the Digital Songs tally thanks to the arrival of her “Teenage Dream” album.
Her second Capitol effort starts atop the Billboard 200 with 192,000 according to Nielsen SoundScan — marking her best sales week and a new chart high. She’s the first solo woman to reign at No. 1 since January, when Ke$ha’s “Animal” spent one week atop the list.
Over on the Digital Songs chart, “Teenage Dream’s” title track moves up one spot to spend its first frame at No. 1 with 259,000 (up 24%).
Perry’s last album, 2008′s “One of the Boys,” debuted and peaked at No. 9 in July of that year with 47,000 sold in its premiere week. Its best sales frame came over Christmas week of 2008 when it shifted 63,000 — but at a lower rung on the tally.
On Digital Songs, “Teenage Dream” gives Perry her second No. 1 of the year. She earlier reigned for five weeks with the album’s first single, “California Gurls.” The latter is on the verge of becoming the year’s top selling download with 2.6 million sold. Its sum falls just shy of 2010′s best-seller: Train’s “Hey, Soul Sister” (3.8 million).

Simon Cowell is so Xstatic about Katy Perry’s scene-stealing stint as a judge, he wants to Factor her in for a repeat performance…
Singer Katy, 25, did so well on the panel for the X Factor auditions in Dublin, Simon has offered her a pay-per-show deal on the US version of his hit series.
Sources say Katy could pocket £220,000 a show.
Impressed with her off-the-cuff comments and deadpan quips, Simon, 50, contacted her at the end of last week – before her appearance on the ITV1 show had even aired.
Following the recent Auto-Tuning scandal, it seems the multi-millionaire mogul fears any more controversy could hamper the show’s launch in the States.
So he is desperate to secure at least three big names on the judging table within the next six weeks to renew interest in the show and among network execs at Fox.
And Katy, who looked stunning when snapped heading to an interview with NRJ radio station in Paris yesterday, is top of the list.
