On This Day, Feb. 10, 1979…<\/p>\n

Rod Stewart<\/strong> hit #1 on the Billboard<\/em> Hot 100 singles chart with \u201cDa Ya Think I\u2019m Sexy,\u201d the first single off his ninth studio album, Blondes Have More Fun<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The song spent four weeks at #1 in the U.S.<\/p>\n

\u201cDa Ya Think I\u2019m Sexy\u201d was Stewart\u2019s third #1, following 1971\u2019s \u201cMaggie Mae,\u201d and 1976\u2019s \u201cTonight\u2019s the Night (Gonna Be Alright).\u201d His only other #1 came in 1994 with \u201cAll for Love,\u201d which also featured Bryan Adams<\/strong> and Sting.<\/strong><\/p>\n
