Ella Langley's 'Choosin' Texas' Now Puts Her in Whitney/Mariah Territory

The song ties Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston for the most weeks at No. 1 among songs billed solely to women.

  • On Tuesday, Ella Langley's "Choosin' Texas" tallied a 14th week at the top of the Billboard Hot 100, tying Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston for the longest run among female artists.
  • Carey has also spent 22 weeks at the top with her "All I Want for Christmas Is You," a nonholiday distinction that places Langley in the second-longest command record for female artists working alone.
  • Historic benchmarks for multi-week dominance include "The Boy Is Mine" by Brandy and Monica, "Independent Women Part I" by Destiny's Child, and "Un-Break My Heart" by Toni Braxton, each spending 11 weeks at No. 1.
  • Stella Lefty's "Boston" jumped to No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 with a writing credit for Noah Kahan, while Olivia Dean topped the Radio Songs chart with "So Easy ."
