Swift monopolizes the top 10 thanks to her new album, The Life of a Showgirl. She does so for a third time -- no one else ever has at all.

Taylor Swift claims the top 12 spots on the latest Billboard Hot 100, all via her new album, The Life of a Showgirl. On the chart dated Oct. 18, "The Fate of Ophelia" leads her dozen debuts at No. 1 -- as the 12-song set becomes the first album ever to place all its songs uninterrupted from the top of the chart on down.

Swift was already the only artist ever to hold the Hot 100's entire top 10 and now achieves the feat for a third time. She first filled the top 10 thanks to her album Midnights in November 2022 and outpaced herself via The Tortured Poets Department in May 2024 -- when she stormed the chart's top 14 positions.

(Whereas the entirety of The Life of a Showgirl resides in the Hot 100's top 12, Midnights, along with the top 10, yielded 10 more debuts, between Nos. 13 and 45, for a total of 20 songs from the set in its debut week; The Tortured Poets Department in its first frame added another 17 debuts below the top 14 spots, from Nos. 22 to 55, making for 31 total entries from the LP.)

With "The Fate of Ophelia," Swift scores her 13th career Hot 100 No. 1, tying for the fourth-most over the chart's 67-year history. She also ups her count to 69 top 10s, the most among women.

Also notably, the song blasts in with 92.5 million official U.S. streams, according to data tracker Luminate -- the most for a title in a single week since official streams became the metric's sole contributor to the Hot 100 in September 2020.

As previously reported, The Life of a Showgirl, released Oct. 3 on Republic, launches at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart with the biggest week for an album, by equivalent album units and album sales, since Luminate began collecting album data electronically in 1991. Swift earns her 15th No. 1 set, passing JAY-Z for the most among soloists in the chart's 69-year archives.
