Ariana Grande is back on the Hot 100 charts this week with her new song ‘We Can’t Be Friends’ debuting at No.1.
The 30-year-old tied the spot with Taylor Swift as the artist to have the second-most number of chart-toppers (six).
This marks the second song from Grande’s new album, ‘Eternal Sunshine’, to debut at number one, the first being the album’s lead single, Yes, And?
With the new milestone, Grande has broken Swift’s record by becoming the female artist with the most No.1 debuts in history and the most No.1 hits this year.
She also became the first female act in history to have two albums score multiple No.1 debuts on the Hot 100.
In 2018, Grande clinched her first chart-topping debut on the Hot 100 with her hit single Thank U, Next. She then doubled her triumphs the subsequent year with 7 Rings, another track hailing from the same album, Thank U, Next.
In 2020, she etched her name in history once more by securing three chart-topping debuts on the Hot 100.
