Who will have the #1 song of 2009 in Billboard?

Background: So far in the '00s, the year-end #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 has been performed by a solo female 3 times (Faith Hill, Mariah Carey, Beyonce), a solo male twice (50 Cent, Daniel Powter), a band twice (Lifehouse, Nickelback) and a collaboration twice (Usher featuring Lil Jon and Ludacris, Flo Rida featuring T-Pain). Who will come out on top for 2009?

IMPORTANT: Read more about the year end charts HERE and check out the past winners

Settlement details:Question will settle based solely on artist name(s) credited in Billboard's year-end Hot 100 chart publication. Any credit with multiple individual names (as shown above) will settle as Collaboration. Any credit other than a person's name will settle as Band regardless of input (examples, Nine Inch Nails would settle as Band even if Trent Reznor wholly composed and performed the song; or, Apocalyptica featuring Adam Gontier would settle as Band).
