On November 17, 2000, the date when her second album was supposed to drop in stores, was held back till January 23, 2001 and its title changed from A Passionate Journey to J.Lo. In December in the MTV Europe Music Awards her first single, “Love Don’t Cost A Thing”, was performed live and world premiered! On January 23, 2001, the album finally hit the streets and debuted on the Billboard Charts in many countries at number one, while her single was still heating up the charts! In that same week, “The Wedding Planner”, a romantic comedy, was released in theaters and snatched the number one position at the box office.

Eminem Had a Number 1 Movie, Album, and Single all at the same time, in 2002.
Eminem had his single "Lose Yourself" which hit #1 on November 9th, 2002 and stayed there for 12 weeks. The single was from the 8 Mile: Soundtrack album by Eminem which debuted at #1 on October 29th, 2002 and held that title for a few weeks. All while 8 Mile, a movie heavily based on Eminem's life as well playing the lead role in the film, opened at #1 with $51,240,555 in its opening weekend, November 10th, 2002.
