Dua’s done it!
33 weeks after first cracking the Billboard Hot 100’s top 10 with her enduring hit, ‘Levitating,’ the GRAMMY winner has levitated into history books.
See why inside:
As we reported here, ‘Levitating’ – a sleeper hit that initially missed the Hot 100 all together upon its official August 2020 release – made headlines last week when it tied the all-time record for longest run in the tally’s top 10 by a female leader.
A mainstay in the chart region since January, the DaBaby-assisted tune is found at #6 on this week’s refreshed edition of the Hot 100. As a result, its bests the previous recordholder – LeAnn Rimes‘ ‘How Do I Live’ – to become the longest-running, female-led top 10 hit in the chart’s 63-year history.
Among all acts, ‘Levitating’ lands in a four-way tie for third place among the tunes with the longest tenures in the chart’s top 10. Look below to see who it will have to beat to own the overall record.

LeAnn Rimes‘ ‘How Do I Live’ is a classic and would be remembered unlike levitating that would be forgotten by this time next year
