Taylor Swift continues her record-breaking dominance on the Billboard Hot 100, as “The Fate of Ophelia” remains at No. 1 for a third consecutive week. The lead single from her new album The Life of a Showgirl is now Taylor’s seventh song to spend three or more weeks atop the chart, joining “Anti-Hero” (8), “Blank Space” (7), “Cruel Summer” (4), “Shake It Off” (4), “Look What You Made Me Do” (3), and “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” (3).
Notably, Taylor Swift holds the top spot on both Billboard charts for a third consecutive week. In fact, The Life of a Showgirl also leads the Billboard 200 for a third straight week. This marks the first time in chart history that an artist has debuted at No. 1 on both charts — and maintained both positions — for three consecutive weeks.
In addition, Swift now claims her seventh career week with at least four songs inside the Hot 100’s Top 10, surpassing Drake (six weeks). Beyond “The Fate of Ophelia,” her current Top 10 lineup includes “Opalite” at No. 4, “Elizabeth Taylor” at No. 5, and “Father Figure” at No. 6.
