Cheryl Cole has notched up her second UK number one and the fastest selling non-charity single of 2010 with new track 'Promise This'.
The X Factor judge's much-discussed performance on the show last Sunday saw her latest release sell over 157,000 copies this week, just pipping Barbadian singer Rihanna's comeback track 'Only Girl (In The World)' to the top spot.
The lead song from the 'Umbrella' hitmaker's upcoming album Loud achieved first week sales of 126,000, giving Rihanna her 14th UK top ten hit and the second fastest-selling single of the year so far.
Nelly's 'Just A Dream' climbs from 11 to eight this week, where it becomes sandwiched between two big fallers, in the shape of Duck Sauce's 'Barbra Streisand' at seven and The Wanted's sophomore track 'Heart Vacancy' at nine.
Outside the top of the chart, Michael Bublé's 'Hollywood' lands at 11 after being boosted 16 places by an X Factor appearance, while former top five smash 'Miami 2 Ibiza' by Tinchy Stryder and Swedish House Mafia slips just behind at 12.
Elsewhere, a triple bill of new releases - Tim Berg's 'Seek Bromance', Peter Andre's 'Defender' and Devlin's 'Runaway' - make their mark further down the chart, arriving together at 13, 14 and 15 respectively.
