Solo female songs with the most weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 this century:
1. We Belong Together by Mariah Carey (14 weeks)
2.Choosin’ Texas by Ella Langley (11 weeks)
3. Irreplaceable by Beyoncé, Hello by Adele and The Fate of Ophelia by Taylor Swift (10 weeks)
Beyoncé is the only artist in Hot 100 history to claim double-digit weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 both as a soloist and a group member.
She achieved this with Irreplaceable (10 weeks at no. 1) and Independent Women Part 1 (11 weeks at no. 1).
Beyoncé and Taylor Swift are the only artists currently known to have headlined multiple world tours that were 100% stadium only from start to finish
no arena dates, no mixed venues.
Taylor Swift was just 20 years old when she won Album of the Year for Fearless at the 52nd Grammy Awards in 2010, becoming the youngest artist in history to win the category at the time.
Fun fact: Thanks to her exceptional versatility, Beyoncé is the only artist to have No.1 songs on the following combination of Billboard charts: Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, Hot Gospel Songs, Hot Latin Songs, Hot R&B Songs and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs (over the course of her career).
