On the same day that the Black Eyed Peas were to take center stage on Good Morning America, the quartet found out that they now held a new world record. The band has become the first performance artist to have 6 million digital music purchases and downloads for a single song. Of course, that song would be "I Gotta Feeling." This is the second type record that the band holds, having been the first performance artist to reach 500,000 digital music purchases with their song "Let's Get it Started" way back in February of 2005. Boy, the fellas at the Digital Millenium Copyright Act must love the Black Eyed Peas.
The news for the Black Eyed Peas continues to fellow pop star, Katy Perry who also got a new record this week. Perry's song "California Gurls" tied Flo Rida's song "Right Round" for the fastest song to reach 3 million purchases. This is also Perry's third song to reach the 3 million mark following the successes of her previous singles "Hot N Cold" and "I Kissed A Girl"
