Ella Langley’s ‘Choosin’ Texas’ Makes More History With 14th Week at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100

Plus, Stella Lefty lands her first Hot 100 top 10 and Olivia Dean has the biggest song on radio.

Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” tallies a 14th week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 — tying a pair of iconic songs for more historic heights.

The single, which first led the Hot 100 in February, matches Mariah Carey’s “We Belong Together” and Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” for the most weeks at No. 1 among non-holiday titles by women with no male-billed acts. Adding in Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” “Choosin’ Texas” ties for the second-longest command among songs by only women.

Here’s an updated rundown, ranked by most weeks at No. 1, of the longest-leading Hot 100 hits billed solely to women over the chart’s archives, which date to August 1958:
