Teenage Dream made Katy Perry the first woman with five Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 singles from one album.
The five leaders were “California Gurls,” “Teenage Dream,” “Firework,” “E.T.,” and “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.).” The fifth reached the top in 2011, completing a feat previously achieved only by Michael Jackson with Bad.
Teenage Dream was Perry’s third studio album and was released in 2010. Its singles combined pop, dance, and electronic influences, helping the album remain commercially prominent for an extended period. “E.T.” also topped the chart in a version featuring Kanye West.
The record concerns five separate singles from the same album, not simply five No. 1s across an artist’s career. Perry later added more chart-topping songs from other albums, but the Teenage Dream achievement remains a specific Hot 100 milestone for a female artist.
