Taylor Swift shatters records as ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ claims Billboard Hot 100’s Top 12 spots

Taylor Swift just broke another record and wrote a new line in pop history. Her latest album, The Life of a Showgirl, has become the first ever to dominate the Billboard Hot 100's top 12 spots in uninterrupted order, with "The Fate of Ophelia" leading the charge.

In order, the next 11 spots lined up seamlessly: “Opalite,” “Elizabeth Taylor,” “Father Figure,” “Wood,” “Wi$h Li$t,” “Actually Romantic,” “The Life of a Showgirl” (feat. Sabrina Carpenter), “Eldest Daughter,” “Cancelled!,” “Ruin the Friendship,” and “Honey.”

With this achievement, Taylor Swift further solidifies her record as the only artist to occupy the entire top 10 for a third time. Further, the pop artist also earns her 13th No. 1 on the Hot 100, as well as her 69th top 10 hit, with "The Fate of Ophelia," extending her record for the most among women.

According to Luminate, the track has achieved 92.5 million official streams in the U.S., making it the highest single-week streaming total since 2020.

Additionally, it debuted at No. 7 on the Radio Songs chart, becoming one of only five songs to ever start their run in the top 10.

Recalling, the Showgirl songstress made history as the only artist to occupy the entire top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 with her 2022 release, Midnights. Then, she surpassed that feat by securing 14 top positions with her 31-track album, The Tortured Poets Department, in 2024.

The Life of a Showgirl continues to shatter records after debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, surpassing JAY-Z with 15 No. 1 albums, the highest for any solo artist.
