Katy Perry, "Five Hot 100 numbers from same album."

Katy Perry has become the first female artist to achieve five Hot 100 number ones from a single album.

The singer has managed to top the Hot 100 chart this week with her latest single 'Last Friday Night', after releasing a remix featuring Missy Elliot last week, reports Billboard.

The remix accounted for 25% of the song's overall digital sales, while the original track remains atop the US radio songs listings.

Perry has now matched a record set by Michael Jackson in 1987-88, when the late King of Pop produced five chart-toppers from his multi-million-selling album Bad.

Perry and Jackson are the only two artists to have reached the landmark in the Billboard Hot 100's 53-year-long history

The five singles - 'California Gurls', 'Teenage Dream', 'Firework', 'E.T.' and 'Last Friday Night' - have all been lifted from Perry's second studio album Teenage Dream.

The album topped both the US Billboard 200 and the UK album chart upon its release last August and has more than 2.2 million combined sales in the territories.
