Top of the Pops, 4th June 2015

Rare appearances ahoy. This week we have a rare appearance from Sia, a rare appearance from Usher, a rare transatlantic visit from Ariana Grande, and a rare appearance from mister number one, Jason Derulo. Lots of American (based) acts in the chart just now, so it's nice that they're happy to come over and perform for us.

Europe is well-represented too, by young Martin Garrix, Avicii and Mans Zelmerlow. Would you believe the only Brit on the show this week is Rita Ora? Or perhaps Parson James is British too, not sure.
