Alicia Keys Comes out on top
 

ak.jpgOnce on top of the world, Celine Dion now has to deal with the heavy weight of Alicia Keys' unstoppable awesomeness on her shoulders. The two singers went head to head with their album debuts last week, and Alicia crushed all competition by selling 742,000 albums, the second highest album debut for a female artist since Norah Jones sold a million in 2004. Jay-Z slid from #1 to a less-than-impressive #8. Nothing lasts forever. [BB]

Damn. Celine was selling out nightly in Vegas for 5 years but can't get a #1?
