Zephyring 15 Yrs, Lady Gaga’s ‘Poker Face’ Hit No. 1 Via Billboard Hot 100 Circa 2009.

"Today’s episode of Billboard‘s Chart Rewind looks back at when Lady Gaga, TLC and Elton John hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Pokerface,” “No Scrubs” and “Bennie and the Jets.”

Tetris Kelly:

This week on Chart Rewind, we have three very different No. 1 hits to celebrate from three very different artists. Let’s start 50 years ago, heading all the way back to 1974 when Elton John put out his sensational hit “Benny and the Jets,” which hit No. 1 on April 13, 1974. At the time, it was his second No. 1 after “Crocodile Rock.”

Next we leap forward 25 years to April 10, 1999. TLC had the third No. 1 Hot 100 here with “No Scrubs.” It stayed there for four weeks.

And finally, Lady Gaga in 2009. Her second Hot 100 No.1 was “Poker Face.” It made it to the top on April 11, 2009, just a few months after her first Hot 100 hit “Just Dance.”" - Billboard.com
