Ke$ha's new single "We R Who We R" debuted at no 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 as well as taking the top spot on the Nielsen SoundScan Digital Songs Chart in both the U.S. and Canada.

Ke$ha is the first female artist to have a single debut at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 since Britney Spears did with "3" in 2009 and the first artist since Eminem's debut with "Not Afraid" back in May.

Only 17 songs have debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 to date and Ke$ha joins the ranks of other superstars such as Mariah Carey, Carrie Underwood, Britney Spears and Whitney Houston who share the honor. This marks Ke$ha's 5th Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 single in a row.

"We R Who We R", which was produced by Dr. Luke, Benny Blanco and Ammo, has been holding down the #1 spot on the iTunes Top 10 list since it went on sale over a week ago, is the first single off Cannibal (RCA Records / Kemosabe Entertainment), the highly anticipated companion to her platinum selling debut album Animal which comes out on November 22nd. Consisting of nearly an album's worth of new songs, it will be made available for sale separately, as well as bundled with Animal in a special deluxe repackage called Animal + Cannibal.
