Justin Timberlake's 'Suit & Tie' has broken an airplay record in America

JT-2020experience-studio-2Resting Actor Justin Timberlake's mediocre 'Suit & Tie' has broken a chart record of sorts in America.

The Telegraph are reporting that the song was played 6,045 times across US radio stations last week, making it the most plays for a new song in its first week in the Billboard Pop Songs chart's twenty year history.

It also entered the chart at Number 14, the highest new entry for a male artist ever.

The previous record for most plays was held by Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way', which was played 4602 in its first week at radio.

So there you are.
