Their follow-up, I Gotta Feeling, then took over the number one position, giving the Peas a record-breaking 20 weeks on the chart.  Previously, the record for being on the top of the charts was held by Usher, who had hits Yeah! and Burn rule the charts for 19 weeks in 2004.<br />

            <title>Shania Twain To Be 'American Idol' Judge</title>
            <link>http://www.pop-music.net/tiki-read_article.php?articleId=1285</link>
            <description><![CDATA[According to <a class="wiki external" target="_blank" href="http://tvwatch.people.com/2009/08/17/shania-twain-to-guest-judge-idol-auditions/" rel="external">people.com</a>, the lovely Country singer Shania Twain has been lined up to take Paula Abdul's place on the <a class="wiki external" target="_blank" href="http://www.americanidol.com/" rel="external">American Idol</a> judging team in Chicago on August 30/31.  It should be good news for Shania fans who haven't seen her for a while - she hasn't released any new material since 1992 when Up! was released as a double album, with three different discs—pop (a red CD), country (a green CD), and Indian film music (a blue CD).  However, her record company <a class="wiki external" target="_blank" href="http://www.edmontonsun.com/entertainment/music/2009/08/08/10399266-sun.html" rel="external">recently denied</a> that any new releases were imminent, so the appearance on <a class="wiki external" target="_blank" href="http://www.americanidol.com/" rel="external">American Idol</a> might be all fans can hope for this year.<br />

            <title>Kelly Clarkson Admits She's Never Been In Love</title>
            <link>http://www.pop-music.net/tiki-read_article.php?articleId=1281</link>
            <description><![CDATA[It might seem super hard to believe it, but pretty pop princess Kelly Clarkson has admitted that she's never been in love.  The 25 year-old Idol winner spills all in this month's issue of Elle Magazine in the US, where she is featured on the cover.  She said "I know people probably think I've been heartbroken, because of the stuff I've sung and written. I love my friends and family. But I have never said the words 'I love you' to anyone in a romantic relationship. Ever. I am very old-school, conservative in my thinking when it comes to relationships. Love is something you work at. It doesn't come easily. There are going to be bad days. You are going to have to work at loving someone when they are being an idiot. People think they're just going to meet the perfect guy. Don't be ridiculous."<br />
<br />
Poor old Kelly has been going through a rough time recently. There's been a <a class="wiki external" target="_blank" href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18685048/" rel="external">run in with Clive Davis over her upcoming CD</a>, “My December", where he allegedly made an offer of $10 million if Kelly ditched five of her songs for more radio-friendly. In the meantime, expect to see Kelly in a city near you as she travels across the US this summer as part of her tour.<br />
