Taylor Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl continues its dominance by securing a fifth consecutive week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, earning 120,000 equivalent album units in the week ending November 6. It is the second album in 2025 to spend its first five weeks atop the chart, following Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem, which led for eight straight weeks following its May release. Showgirl marks Swift’s third album to start off with at least five consecutive weeks at No. 1, alongside the six-week chart-topping run of Folklore in 2020, and the initial 12-week rule of The Tortured Poets Department in 2024. Other notable moves in this week’s Top 10 include Florence + the Machine notching their fifth Top 10 of their career, as Everybody Scream debuts at No. 4, while Tyler, The Creator’s former chart-topper, CHROMAKOPIA, surges from No. 117 all the way up to No. 5 following its one-year anniversary reissue.
The rest of this week’s Billboard 200 Top 10 includes a series of former No. 1 albums, with the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack holding at No. 2, Wallen’s I’m the Problem staying at No. 3, Sabrina Carpenter’s Man’s Best Friend slipping one spot to No. 6, SZA’s SOS rises two slots to No. 8, Wallen’s One Thing at a Time jumps up two places to No. 9, and Cardi B’s AM I THE DRAMA? falls two spots to No. 10. The Top 10 is rounded out by Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving, which drops one slot to No. 7. (Billboard)
