Iggy Azalea‘s attempts to have Lizzo (born Melissa Jefferson) unseated from history books has proven futile as the burgeoning diva’s breakout hit, ‘Truth Hurts,’ has reclaimed the top spot of the Billboard Hot 100.

As we reported here, Azalea – courtesy of the 7 weeks her 2014 hit ‘Fancy’ held the top spot – currently holds the record for longest reign by a female rapper.  In an attempt to remain the sole occupant of the title, the ‘Started’ rapstress started encouraging fans to stream Jefferson’s competitors to remove her from #1.

Albeit briefly successful as Travis Scott dethroned Lizzo last week with his new hit ‘Highest in the Room’ (as we reported here), refreshed charts show it’s actually Lizzo who is now the highest – giving her hit ‘Hurts’ its 7th week at the top.  The move ties her with Azalea for the history making feat.

If sales and streaming charts are any indication, fans of Camila Cabello (better known as #Camilizers) have certainly fallen in love with content from ‘Romance’ – the Pop singer’s soon-to-come sophomore album.

As her sizzling Shawn Mendes duet, the chart-topping ‘Senorita,’ continues its run in the top 5 months after its release, she’s looking to see her newest solo efforts – ‘Liar’ and ‘Shameless’ – join it in the Hot 100’s upper rankings.  Both making their debuts on the tally this week, of the duo of tunes – which saw their respective music videos unveiled shortly after they were officially released – the more radio-friendly ‘Liar’ is seemingly taking the lead in the race to the top.

Granted, its cinematic Dave Meyers-music video and Latin-inspired musical composition akin to the singer’s inaugural hit, ‘Havana,’ didn’t exactly hurt.  Look inside to see just where they premiered on the Hot 100 and check out who made the top 25 on this week’s edition of ‘Chart Check.’
