Daughtry

Beyonce floats into the top 5, Jeremih scores the week's biggest digital and airplay gains and Daughtry debuts in the top 20 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart this week.

Beyonce's "Halo" rises 8-5 in a top 10 led by the Black Eyed Peas' "Boom Boom Pow" at No. 1, Lady GaGa's "Poker Face" at No. 2, Jamie Foxx feat. T-Pain's "Blame It" at No. 3, Kid Cudi's "Day ‘N' Nite" at No. 4, and Flo Rida feat. Wynter's "Sugar" at No. 6. Rounding out the top 10 are Soulja Boy Tell'em feat. Sammie's "Kiss Me Thru The Phone" holding steady at No. 7, 3OH!3 climbing 9-8 with "Don't Trust Me" and Flo Rida's "Right Round" falling 6-9. Miley Cyrus' "The Climb" re-enters the top 10, rising 11-10 this week.

Jeremih's "Birthday Sex" becomes the first song in several years outside the top 10 to simultaneously score the week's greatest airplay gain (an increase of 12 million audience impressions) and digital download gain (a jump of 11,000 downloads).

Daughtry debuts at No. 15 with "No Surprise," the week's highest debut on the Hot 100. Spurred by a May 6 "American Idol" performance and a subsequent download count of 106,000, it's Daughtry's best debut on the chart.

Also new on this week's Hot 100 is Eminem feat. Dr. Dre's "Old Time's Sake," at No. 25; Sean Kingston's "Fire Burning" at No. 29; Paula Abdul's "I'm Just Here For the Music" at No. 87; Drake's "Best I Ever Had" at No. 92; Young Money's "Every Girl" at No. 96; and Fast Life Yungstaz' "Swag Surfin" at No. 99.

Skirting the top 10 this week is Latin rapper Pitbull's bilingual hip-shaker "I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho)," a re-working of dance hit "75 Brazil Street."

Sugarland surges to its fifth No. 1 on the Hot Country Songs chart, as the lyrically-playful "It Happens" hikes from No. 3 to No. 1.

Re-entering the Hot 100 this week is Kanye West feat. Young Jeezy with "Amazing," at No. 81.
