But she will face serious competition next week from Guns N' Roses' "G N' R Lies," which a month ago wasn't even in the Top 10 but now is suddenly back in contention. This week, it moved from No. 3 to No. 2 ahead of Tone Loc's superhot "Loc-ed After Dark" (now No. 3); next week, the victim could be Madonna.
