Here's the top ten hits in France this week, according to their official singles chart, as Sia holds at #1 for a second week...

1. "Cheap Thrills" - Sia (1)
2. "Don't Be So Shy" - Imany (2)
3. "Can't Stop The Feeling!" - Justin Timberlake (DEBUT)
4. "This Girl" - KUNGS vs Cookin' On 3 Burners (3)
5. "One Dance" - Drake featuring Wizkid (4)
6. "This Is What You Came For" - Calvin Harris featuring Rihanna (5)
7. "Stressed Out" - twenty-one pilots (6)
8. "Faded" - Alan Walker (7)
9. "J'ai Cherche'" - Amir (DEBUT)
10. "I Took A Pill In Ibiza" - Mike Posner (8)

 Justin Timberlake races into the chart at #3 with his contribution to the Trolls movie, "Can't Stop The Feeling!". It automatically becomes his 10th top ten in this country, though he's yet to reach #1 - he's been to #2 twice as a featured artist on Madonna's "4 Minutes" and Michael Jackson's "Love Never Felt So Good"...
