(AllHipHop News) Billie Eilish has ended Lil Nas X’s record-breaking run at the top of the U.S. charts after playing runner-up to his “Old Town Road” for nine weeks.
The singer’s#### “Bad Guy” has also landed Billie Eilish in the record books – no artist has ever spent nine weeks at number two before hitting the top of the Billboard Hot 100 countdown.
At 17, she also becomes the first person born this century to hit number one, and the youngest since Lorde took Royals to the top in 2013.
Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello’s Senorita climbs to two on the new list, while Lil Nas X’s Old Town Road drops to three after spending an amazing 19 weeks on top.
