Never seen before: With THE LIFE OF A SHOWGIRL, Taylor Swift simultaneously occupies all the top spots on the Billboard Hot 100. Find out which songs are at the top.
Taylor Swift is making chart history again: According to “Billboard”, all twelve songs from her new album THE LIFE OF A SHOWGIRL occupy positions 1 to 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 – without interruption. It is the first time since the Hot 100 was founded in the 1950s that all songs on an album have taken the top positions at the same time.
Editorial recommendations
Swift previously became the first and only artist to occupy all ten spots in the top 10 of the Hot 100. She achieved this with her previous two records, MIDNIGHTS and THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT. In both cases, however, their playlist was not fully represented outside of the top 10 – songs from other artists still found space before all the tracks from Taylor Swift’s LP were taken into account.
The songs are currently in the Hot 100 in this order
- “The Fate of Ophelia”
- “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”
- “Honey”
Records also in streaming and album sales
In the first week of release, Taylor Swift sold 3,479,500 albums in the US alone. Since the data company “Luminate” began tracking sales – later also downloads and streams – for the Billboard charts in 1991, no album has been purchased more frequently in the first week than THE LIFE OF A SHOWGIRL.
With “The Fate of Ophelia,” Swift also breaks another record: She is now the artist with the highest number of songs that debuted at number 1 on the charts. A total of eight of their titles have reached the top position so far. In the US, the song was streamed 92.5 million times and played on radio 38.5 million times. The song now has almost 200 million streams on Spotify.
THE LIFE OF A SHOWGIRL: What you need to know
THE LIFE OF A SHOWGIRL is the US megastar’s twelfth studio album. It was released on October 3, 2025. Swift processes her feelings and experiences from the “The Eras” tour. At its core, however, it is an album about falling in love – with her fiancé Travis Kelce.
Most recently, the pop artist released new fan articles to mark the announcement of a documentary series about her “The Eras” tour. One of them is causing a stir online: Swift is said to be using Nazi symbolism on a necklace, thus indicating a connection to the right-wing scene. Since the heated debate online, the item no longer appears to be available in the online store. There has been no official statement from Swift yet.
