“Whether on her own (‘Irreplaceable,’ ‘Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)’); in pairings (‘Beautiful Liar,’ with Shakira, ‘Telephone,’ with Lady Gaga); or, in the trio Destiny's Child (‘Bills, Bills, Bills,’ ‘Say My Name’), Beyonce = Hot 100 hit-making. This duet marked the second of her five No. 1s since 2003 as a solo artist, following four toppers in Destiny's Child in 1999-2001. Paul capped the Hot 100 once before this leader, with ‘Get Busy’ (three weeks, 2003), and once after, with ‘Temperature’ (one week, 2006).” (Billboard) (Photo: Mark Mainz/Getty Images)
Biggest Duets of...We're only halfway to Valentine's Day, but that doesn’t mean we can't indulge in some romance. Keep the love alive with Billboard Magazine’s list of the biggest musical duets in history. The magazine’s experts sorted through more than 50 years of Hot 100 hits to determine the biggest duets to ever hit the chart. Keep in mind that ranking is based on the songs’ chart performance on the weekly Billboard Hot 100 (which launched in August 1958), rather than any sort of aphrodisiacal properties, so don’t let it ruin your intimate evening if your favorite romantic jam didn’t make the list.—Jeff Royer (Photos: Getty Images)
'Separate Lives'..."Before there was 'Black Swan,' the '80s gave us the elegant dance film 'White Nights,' starring Russian ballet icon Mikhail Baryshnikov, as well as Gregory Hines, Helen Mirren and Isabella Rossellini. The movie is also remembered for its hit soundtrack, which yielded two Hot 100 No. 1s: Lionel Richie's Oscar-winning 'Say You, Say Me' and this intimate ballad, written by Stephen Bishop ('It Might Be You'). The song became Martin's only topper and the fourth of Collins' seven solo leaders." (Billboard) (Photo: Getty Images)
'On My Own' by M..."While as the leaders of their respective groups Labelle and the Doobie Brothers, LaBelle and McDonald earned No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 singles, neither had a solo topper until this 1986 duet. Interestingly, the two singers hadn't met until well after the song was recorded and was scaling the chart - as the single was put together on different coasts in different studios. As Fred Bronson notes in his 'Billboard Book of Number One Hits,' 'As "On My Own" went to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, LaBelle and McDonald met for the first time - at NBC Studios in Burbank (Calif.), where they performed the song on "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson."'"

'Don't Go Breaki...“John has recorded so many hit duets he even released an album entitled ‘Duets,’ which peaked at No. 25 on the Billboard 200 in 1993. Following his classic pairing with Dee, Elton graced the Hot 100 with the likes of Aretha Franklin, George Michael (their ‘Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me’ hit No. 1 in 1992), LeAnn Rimes and RuPaul(!), whose dance remake of this song, from ‘Duets,’ dented the chart (No. 92) in 1994. John's current album? The collaborative ‘The Union,’ with Leon Russell, which stands as John's top-charting set (No. 3) on the Billboard 200 since 1976.” (Billboard) (Photo: Evening Standard/Getty Images)
'Islands In The ...“Some 30 years ago, star power didn't shine much brighter than that of Rogers and Parton, who charted a combined 22 No. 1s on Country Songs in the '80s. Add that this song was written by the Bee Gees and it's no surprise that it topped the Hot 100 for two weeks, as well as Country Songs and Adult Contemporary. In 1998, Pras Michel borrowed its melody for the chorus of ‘Ghetto Supastar (That Is What You Are).’ The reinvention, featuring Ol' Dirty Bastard and Mya, hit No. 15 on the Hot 100 and No. 8 on R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.” (Billboard) (Photo: Rick Diamond/Getty Images)
'Baby Boy' by Be...“Whether on her own (‘Irreplaceable,’ ‘Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)’); in pairings (‘Beautiful Liar,’ with Shakira, ‘Telephone,’ with Lady Gaga); or, in the trio Destiny's Child (‘Bills, Bills, Bills,’ ‘Say My Name’), Beyonce = Hot 100 hit-making. This duet marked the second of her five No. 1s since 2003 as a solo artist, following four toppers in Destiny's Child in 1999-2001. Paul capped the Hot 100 once before this leader, with ‘Get Busy’ (three weeks, 2003), and once after, with ‘Temperature’ (one week, 2006).” (Billboard) (Photo: Mark Mainz/Getty Images)
'My Boo' by Ushe...“Not to be confused with the 1996 hit of the same name by Ghost Town DJs, this ode to having a boyfriend or girlfriend ‘that will always have your heart’ was tailor made for success because of the team of R&B superstars behind it. Not only does the track find Keys' golden tones mingling with Ushers, the was the track co-written by Keys, Usher and Jermaine Dupri with Manuel Seal and Adonis Shropshire. Little wonder, then, that it rocketed to No. 1 and stayed there for six weeks.” (Billboard) (Photo: Frank Micelotta/Getty Images)
'I'm Real' by Je...“Here's another of the four songs that J.Lo, with assistance from Ja Rule, took to No. 1 on the Hot 100 before she joined the judges panel on TV's No. 1-rated show, ‘American Idol.’ Complementing her new night job, Lopez (previously at No. 36 on this ranking) has recently released the single ‘On the Floor,’ featuring Pitbull. The track marks her first appearance on Billboard's Dance Airplay chart (where it debuted last week at No. 23) since 2007.” (Billboard) (Photo: Scott Gries/ImageDirect/Getty Images)
'Dilemma' by Nel...“If you're a member of any group where there is someone who is ostensibly the lead singer -- and you aren't them -- it isn't easy to break out on your own. So for Destiny's Child's Kelly Rowland, her first single away from the group was an event. An event that could either turn into a footnote or a smash. And what a smash it was. Her ‘Dilemma’ duet with Nelly notched a stunning 10-week run at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, cementing Rowland as not just a backing vocalist to Beyonce, but a solo star in her own right.” (Billboard) (Photo: Robert Mora/Getty Images)
'Ebony and Ivory...“Recorded for Paul McCartney's ‘Tug Of War’ album, the duet -- which spent seven weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 – is the longest-running solo No. 1 for either McCartney or his duet partner Stevie Wonder. ‘Ebony and Ivory’ works as a sort of ultimate ‘can't we get along?’ song, with the lyric: ‘Ebony and ivory live together in perfect harmony / side by side on my piano keyboard, oh lord why don't we?’" (Billboard) (Photos: Dave Hogan/Getty Images, Frank Micelotta/ImageDirect/Getty Images)
'The Boy Is Mine...“This 1998 duet had all the makings of a smash single. First, it paired up rising then-teen female R&B stars Brandy and Monica -- each of whom had notched four top 10 Billboard Hot 100 hits on their own, but not yet a No. 1. Second, there were rumors swirling that the two ladies weren't exactly on friendly terms. Third, the lyrical content of the song was all about fighting over a man – perfect fodder for alleged rivals to sing about. The result? A No. 1 that lasted for 13 weeks at the top – at the time, one of only seven singles in the chart's history to spend that long at No. 1.” (Billboard) (Photo: Dan Callister/Getty Images)
'Say Say Say' by...“Just seeing the words ‘Michael Jackson’ and ‘Paul McCartney’ placed next to each other would have sent chills up any music fan's spine back in 1983, when ‘Say, Say, Say’ was released. The super duo's hit spent six weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 and was the second of two duets from the pair, following ‘The Girl Is Mine’ (No. 2 on Jan. 8, 1983). The stars drifted apart after 1985, when Jackson purchased the massive ATV catalog of songs (which included the majority of the Beatles' catalog). McCartney was later cool to Jackson, but after the latter's passing in 2009, he issued a statement about the King of Pop: ‘I feel privileged to have hung out and worked with Michael. He was a massively talented boy man with a gentle soul. His music will be remembered forever and my memories of our time together will be happy ones.’” (Billboard) (Photos: Dave Hogan/Getty Images, Central Press/Getty Images)
'Endless Love' b...“Diana Ross and Lionel Richie's ‘Endless Love’ crowns our list of the top duets of all time - and with good reason. It's not only the biggest No. 1 hit for either artist (it spent nine weeks at the top), but also clung to the chart for an amazing 27 weeks – a lengthy run for a single back in 1981. Richie wrote the music and lyrics for the soundtrack tune from the Brooke Shields movie of the same name, and recruited diva Ross to accompany him on the song. ‘Endless’ almost returned to the Hot 100 perch nearly 13 years later, when Luther Vandross and Mariah Carey's cover stalled at No. 2 on Oct. 1, 1994.” (Billboard) (Photos: Dave Hogan/Hulton Archive/Getty Images, Evening Standard/Getty Images)
