Lady Gaga on course for the top of the UK and US charts with 'ARTPOP'

Lady Gaga's 'ARTPOP' album is destined for a No. 1 debut on the Billboard 200 chart next week, securing the diva her second chart-topping set.

'ARTPOP" is expected to sell approximately 250,000 copies in the US by the end of the tracking week on Nov. 17.

That figure is slighly lower than the predicted on November 13 of 260,000. 

In the UK, Gaga is heading for her third British No.1 album, as 'ARTPOP' is currently in front of Celine Dion's 'Loved Me Back To Life' by 58%.

'ARTPOP' had sold fewer than 50,000 copies in the UK by November 13, whilst 'Born This Way' sold 215,639 in its first week of release in May 2011.
