Rihanna Set 2 Break Billboard Record Tie

Rihanna makes it look easy, as "Hard," featuring Jeezy, vaults 15-9 on the Hot 100. The track matches the November peak of "Russian Roulette," the first single from Rihanna's fourth album, "Rated R."

"Hard" is Rihanna's lucky 13th Hot 100 top 10. Her debut entry, "Pon De Replay," peaked at No. 2 on the chart dated July 30, 2005.

With a baker's dozen, Rihanna ties Beyonce for most Hot 100 top 10s among female artists since 2000.
