Ariana Grande is adding another world record title to her pile.
Last week, the Guinness World Records announced that Grande is now the artist "with the most songs debut at No.1 on the Billboard 100", after five of her songs topped the charts.
The singer achieved this feat after her single “Positions” reached No. 1 as of 7 November 2020. Her other chart-topping hits include “Thank U, Next” (17 November 2018), “7 Rings” (2 February 2019), “Stuck with U” (23 May 2020), and “Rain on Me” (Lady Gaga feat. Ariana Grande; 6 June 2020).
Guinness World Records stated, "What makes her recent record achievement so extraordinary is that Grande is currently the only artist to have accomplished this in history. Her triumphs come off the back of the impressive strides she has made in the entertainment business, which began in her teens."
Grande already has 19 world records for her achievement in her music, including Most Streamed track on Spotify in one week (Female) for "7 Rings"; Most Followers on Spotify (Female), with 54 plus million followers as of 13 December 2020; First Solo Act to Occupy Top Three Positions Simultaneously on US Singles Chart with “7 Rings” at No.1, “Break up with Your Girlfriend, I’m Bored” at No.2, and “Thank U, Next” at No.3; as well as Most MTV VMA nominations for Best Collaboration.
She also broke the world record many times for her 2019 album, "Thank U, Next", including Most Streamed Track in One Week by a Female Artist on the Billboard Charts, and Most Streamed Pop Album in One Week in both the UK and the US.
Grande's most recent album, "Positions" was released in October last year.
