The Life of a Showgirl is only the second album in 2025 to spend its first six weeks at No. 1, following Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem (which spent its first eight weeks atop the list, of its total 12 at No. 1). Swift’s last album, The Tortured Poets Department, spent its first 12 weeks at No. 1 in 2024, of its total 17 weeks atop the list. Three of her albums have led for their first six chart weeks or more, starting with Folklore, which reigned for its first six weeks in 2020, of eight overall weeks at No. 1.

Also in the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200, Rosalía earns her first top 10 with the No. 4 debut of LUX, Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving hits a new peak as it rises 7-5 and YEONJUN’s debut solo album, NO LABELS PART 01, enters at No. 10.

The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new, Nov. 22, 2025-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Tuesday (Nov. 18). For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X and Instagram.

Of The Life of a Showgirl’s 110,000 equivalent album units earned in the latest tracking week, SEA units comprise 88,500 (down 10%, equaling 115.91 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks — it’s No. 1 on Top Streaming Albums for a sixth week), album sales comprise 19,000 (up 7%; it holds at No. 4 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 2,500 (down 32%).

At Nos. 2 and 3 on the Billboard 200, Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem and the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack trade places as compared to a week ago. The former chart-toppers earned 76,000 equivalent album units (down 2%) and 75,000 units (down 11%), respectively.

Rosalía gets her first top 10 with the No. 4 debut of LUX, as it arrives with a personal-best week of 46,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, SEA units comprise 27,000 (equaling 34.49 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks — a career-high streaming week for the artist, as it debuts at No. 9 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 19,000 (her best sales week ever; it debuts at No. 4 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.

Rosalía previously charted one album on the Billboard 200, 2022’s MOTOMAMI, which debuted and peaked at No. 33.

The new album was preceded by the single “Berghain” (with Björk and Yves Tumor), which climbed 21-16 on the most recently published Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart (dated Nov. 15). LUX’s first-week sales were aided by its availability across four different CD boxed sets (each including branded clothing and a copy of the CD) and two different vinyl LPs (one signed by Rosalía), along with a standard CD and digital download album. The physical editions of the album include three additional tracks as compared to the standard digital download and streaming edition.

Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving reaches a new peak on the Billboard 200 as it climbs 7-5 with 41,000 equivalent album units earned (up 11%).

Four former No. 1s follow Dean, as Sabrina Carpenter’s Man’s Best Friend is a non-mover at No. 6 (37,000 equivalent album units, down 5%), SZA’s SOS rises 8-7 (32,000, up 3%), Cardi B’s AM I THE DRAMA? ascends 10-8 (30,000, up 9%), and Wallen’s One Thing at a Time is stationary at No. 9 (nearly 30,000, up less than 1%).

TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s YEONJUN sees his debut project, NO LABELS PART 01, enter at No. 10 with 29,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, album sales comprise 27,000 (it debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 2,000 (equaling 3.24 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. The set’s first-week sales were assisted by its availability across multiple CD iterations, each including collectible paper ephemera (some randomized), alongside a standard digital download edition.

TOMORROW X TOGETHER has charted a dozen entries on the Billboard 200, with seven reaching the top 10 and one of those, 2023’s The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION, reaching No. 1.
