Gaga song is fastest seller

LADY Gaga’s “Born This Way” has become the fastest-selling single ever on Apple’s iTunes store worldwide, racking up more than one million downloads in five days, Apple said yesterday.

Apple said the song — a Madonna-influenced dance track that the 24-year-old singer performed after ‘hatching’ from a giant egg at the Grammy Awards — had hit the No 1 spot on iTunes in 23 countries.

“Born This Way” also went straight to the top of the US Billboard Hot 100 singles charts this week.
