Rihanna has more number ones than Michael Jackson
Only three performers have topped the Billboard singles chart more than her
She has only just turned 28, but Rihanna is quietly passing more milestones.
On Monday, it was announced that Work, her collaboration with the Rapper Drake, had topped the Billboard singles chart this week, securing her the pleasure of her 14th No1 and pushing her past Michael Jackson, who made it to the top on 13 occasions.
The success of Work, the second track on which she partnered with Drake, means that only three performers now have more No 1s - The Beatles, with 20, and Elvis and Mariah Carey, who both have 18 to their name.
On Monday, the singer also released clips for the video for Work
In the video's first-half, directed by X, Rihanna and her co-star Drake take to the dance floor of a Caribbean restaurant.
In the second half, which was directed by Tim Erem, she and Drake can be seen getting intimate in the club's VIP section.
