The Official Charts Company has announced her achievement after 'What''s My Name?' also became one of the top solos this year. Thus she has joined the elite group along with Elvis Presley, who had topped continuously from 1957 to 1963. Rihanna's other albums 'Loud', 'Good Girl Gone Bad' and 'Umbrella' had topped the charts.

She was also nominated for nine Grammy Awards, winning Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for "Umbrella."
