Michael Jackson has been at #1 on the UK album charts for all seven weeks since his death on June 25th and with the new Billboard numbers out today he’s made it 6 out of 7 weeks in the US (there was one week where he was at #2 behind Daughtry’s 2nd album.)

Number Ones sold 90,000 copies in the US for the week topping a new album by Sugarland titled Live on the Inside which sold 76,000 copies.

With this being the 6th week at #1 for Number Ones this year, it matches the chart topping performance of Bad in 1987 which was also at #1 for six weeks. In 1991 Dangerous was at #1 for four weeks, in 1995 HIStory was at #1 for two weeks, and in 2001 Invincible was at #1 for one week.
