REBA ROMPS PAST THE RAPPERS

LATEST: REBA MCENTIRE has scored her first number one album in America - with a little help from her friends. The country star's Reba Duets release has toppled Kanye West's Graduation thanks to an opening sales week of 301,000. The album features collaborations with Faith Hill, Kenny Chesney, Justin Timberlake and Kelly Clarkson, among others. West's Graduation falls to number two on the new Billboard chart, while 50 Cent's Curtis slips to three. Crooner Barry Manilow scores his third top five album in a row as The Greatest Songs Of The Seventies debuts at number four. Other new releases to grace the top 10 include singer/songwriter James Blunt's All The Lost Souls at number seven and fellow Brit K.T. Tunstall's Drastic Fantastic, which debuts at nine. Rapper Chamillionaire's Ultimate Victory crashes into the new countdown at eight, while Twista's fifth album, Adrenaline Rush 2007, enters at 10. Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder's first solo album, featuring songs he wrote for pal Sean Penn's movie Into The Wild, just misses out on a top 10 spot, debuting at 11.
