Glee Officially Have More Hits Than Elvis

By Andrew Tijs
Fri, 18 Feb 2011 16:02:16 +1100

After six new tracks appear on the charts, Glee have just beaten Elvis for the most charting singles.

This week the Glee cast had another six songs chart in the Billboard Hot 100, meaning they’ve now had more charting singles than the King.

Elvis Presley had 108 charting singles over a twenty-year career as The King Of Rock and Roll.

Glee now has 113 charting singles over two TV seasons of covering other artist's songs.

The TV show and its many singers surpassed The Beatles late last year, who had 71 singles appear in the Hot 100 during their career.

We might be able to assume that if The Beatles and Elvis Presley released every song they wrote during their career as a downloadable single, the numbers might look a little different.

Either that, or the Glee cast are officially the greatest artist of all time.

VIDEO: Check out our interview with two members of the now-legendary Glee cast below.
