Taylor Toppled: Swift’s “Life of a Showgirl” Beaten on iTunes Album Chart by Brandi Carlile, Singles Chart by Megan Thee Stallion

Taylor Swift has been toppled—at least on the iTunes chart. Her album, *Life of a Showgirl*, which has sold an impressive 4.3 million copies, is no longer holding the number 1 spot on the iTunes album chart. Additionally, her single “The Fate of Ophelia” has dropped to number 2 on the iTunes singles chart.

The new number 1 album is Brandi Carlile’s *Returning to Myself*, while the new number 1 single is Megan Thee Stallion’s “Lover Girl.”

According to HitsDailyDouble.com, *Showgirl* sold 199,000 copies this past week, representing a 41% drop. Despite this decline, the album is far from finished and could finish with close to 5 million total sales in the coming months.

To put things in perspective, it’s as if every person in San Francisco—which has a population of about 4.5 million—owned some iteration of the *Showgirl* album. That’s roughly equivalent to the entire population of the country of Panama. (Remember when Trump was focused on the Panama Canal?)

The *Showgirl* vinyl LP also remains the best-selling record on Amazon.com.

Taylor Swift continues to hold strong on the Spotify top 15 streaming chart, with fans seemingly pressing play repeatedly all day long. This success comes despite the album including a number of songs borrowed from other artists—well, who cares? Just enjoy the music!

**PS:** Looking for a cool pop album by a female artist? Check out Lily Allen’s *West End Girl*. It will blow your mind. For a male artist, try Tame Impala’s new record—they are so much better.
