Girls Aloud are reportedly the winners of what has been billed the "battle of the divas" on the UK Charts.

In one week the UK charts saw five new releases including Girls Aloud, Beyonce, Britney Spears, Leona Lewis and Christina Aguilera.

After days of record breaking downloads the UK's top female pop group has won by topping the album charts.

Beyonce's "If I Were A Boy" landed at no.2 followed by debuts from Britney and Leona at no. 4 and 5 respectively.

Other female stars in the top 10 included Katy Perry at number seven with Hot 'n' Cold and Alesha Dixon at number eight with The Boy Does Nothing.

Alicia Keys and Jack White were at nine with their James Bond theme Another Way To Die, while Pink slipped to 10 with So What.

Christina Aguilera, the other major pop diva to release a single last week, saw her song Keeps Gettin' Better enter at number 14.

On the album rundown, Out Of Control became the first of Girls Aloud's five studio albums to top the UK charts.

High new entries also went to Enrique Iglesias' Greatest Hits collection, featuring Ciara, debuting at number three.
