The singer displaced rap star Eminem from pole position, while the only other new entry in the top 10 was Enrique Iglesias's album Euphoria.

JLS scored the third number one single of their career with This Club Is Alive, displacing Katy Perry.

Kylie, meanwhile, saw All The Lovers - the first single from her hit album - slide six places to number nine.

The singer said it was "the most amazing news" that her latest release had gone to number one.
