Seems like Laufey will keep her record with the fall this week. Boo at I Run getting number one in this reality ☹️

I was just thinking about this whilst listening to the chart today! I wasn’t sure who was next up to top the chart, but didn’t realise it was as low down as these last two.

It’s a pity it wasn’t Kylie, but she will undoubtedly make Number One over one of the next two weeks.

Kylie now tied with Calvin Harris as the 9th most successful artist on this version of the chart with 22 number ones - only Madonna (29) and Rihanna (25) beat her in terms of female artists

Stateside number one this week, PinkPantheress' 2nd number one. If Zara was credited this would be her 6th number one putting her on the all-time list!

El primero numero uno por Benito! (think that's right, haven't spoken Spanish in 4 years)
