Taylor Swift has become the first artist in the Billboard Hot 100 Chart history to occupy the entire top 10 in the chart at one time following the release of her Midnights album.

Swift's Midnights album has set another new record after 10 of her Midnights songs placed in all top 10 spots on the Billboard Hot 100 chart at one time. Drake previously held the record with nine songs in the top 10 in September 2021.

"Anti-Hero" is at the top of the charts in both the UK and US, but the Billboard Hot 100 top 10 also features nine other Midnights songs including "Lavender Haze", "Maroon", "Snow on the Beach", "Midnight Rain", "Bejeweled", "Question...?", "You're On Your Own, Kid", "Karma" and "Vigilante Shit".
