Olivia Rodrigo Triples Up at No. 1 on Artist 100, Hot 100 & Billboard 200 Charts for First Time

Olivia Rodrigo jumps from No. 10 to No. 1 on the Billboard Artist 100 chart (dated Sept. 23), returning as the top musical act in the U.S. for a seventh total week, and for the first time since 2021, thanks to her new sophomore album, Guts.

The set launches at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 302,000 equivalent album units earned in its opening week, according to Luminate, while its lead single “Vampire” returns to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for a second week on top.

This marks the first time that Rodrigo has tripled up at No. 1 on Billboard’s three premier charts. She’s the 16th artist to achieve the feat (dating to the Artist 100’s 2014 inception). Drake has scored the most such success, with 16 weeks ruling all three rankings concurrently, followed by Taylor Swift (15).
