The Floridian-Cuban rapper has held off tough competition from former number one 'The Lazy Song' by Bruno Mars, which remains at two this week.
LMFAO's 'Party Rock Anthem' continues to complete the top three, while Aloe Blacc's 'I Need Dollar' also stays put at four.
The Saturdays are the current highest new entry with their new single 'Notorious', which has landed at number five, while Swedish House Mafia's 'Save The World' creeps into the top ten climbing to number nine.
Lady GaGa had a trio of hits in the top 20 with 'Judas' placed at number eight, 'The Edge Of Glory' at 16 and 'Born This Way' at number 17, spending its 16th week on the chart.
Beyoncé re-enters the top 40 with 'Run The World (Girls)' climbing to number 23 and Nicki Minaj is a new entry at 37 with her upcoming single 'Super Bass'.
Over on the album chart, GaGa's second studio album Born This Way has managed to end Adele's 16 non-consecutive weeks at number one with reported sales of approximately 100,000 on its first day of release.
21 has fallen to number two, while The Prodigy are this week's second-highest new entry with their concert album World's On Fire - Live positioned at number three.
Adele's debut album 19 still remains in the top five at number four, trailed by Bruno Mars's Doo Wops and Hooligans. GaGa's debut record The Fame shoots back up the chart following the release of her sophomore effort and currently sits at number six.
The official chart placings will be announced on Sunday at 7pm.
