From the moment she launched her music career under her own name – before the world knew the music of Olivia Rodrigo, some younger listeners had already fallen in love with her voice thanks to her work on Disney Channel’s High School Musical: The Musical: The Series – the singer-songwriter was headed straight for the top. Rodrigo’s debut album Sour was an instant No. 1 across several Billboard charts, and its follow-up Guts brought her back to the top space on multiple tallies.
You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love, her third complete studio effort, launches at No. 1 on every roster it reaches this week in America. Rodrigo increases her total number of leaders on almost every rundown, except for one list, where she dominates for the first time in her career.
Olivia Rodrigo Finally Rules the Streaming Albums Chart
You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love debuts on half a dozen charts published by Billboard this week, and it sits at No. 1 on each and every one of them. For the first time in her career, Rodrigo leads the Top Streaming Albums tally, which is built every frame to show which collections rack up the most plays on platforms like Apple Music, Amazon Music, Spotify and others.
Olivia Rodrigo Had Previously Climbed as High as No. 3
Before this period, No. 3 was as high as Rodrigo had ever soared on the Top Streaming Albums chart. She reached that position in April 2024 with Guts, her sophomore full-length. That set debuted on the register the October prior, but needed months before approaching the throne. Sour, which introduced Rodrigo to millions several years earlier, launched on the Top Streaming Albums chart at the same time as its successor, but it only ever pushed to No. 26.
Sour and Guts Keep Streaming Extremely Well
While neither Sour nor Guts conquered the Top Streaming Albums chart, both projects have lived on the roster for more than a year. Sour is up to 57 stays on the streaming-only list, while Guts has appeared 64 times.
Olivia Rodrigo Charts All Three Albums Together
Only two titles debut on the Top Streaming Albums chart this frame. Several dozen spaces beneath Rodrigo’s You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love comes Ugly Is Beautiful by Oliver Tree. The artist was tragically killed in a helicopter crash in mid-June, and fans of the singer-songwriter quickly returned to his full-length, turning it into a top 40 streaming win.
Only one other collection that did not appear on the Top Streaming Albums chart last week appears, refreshing the roster ever so slightly. Rodrigo’s own Guts is back at No. 44, while Sour lifts from No. 46 to No. 40.
Olivia Rodrigo Doubles Her No. 1s on Several Rankings
The former Best New Artist Grammy winner doubles her total No. 1s on another two Billboard rankings this week. You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love joins Guts as her only leaders on both the Top Rock & Alternative Albums and Top Alternative Albums tallies. Another release, Live From Glastonbury (A BBC Recording), debuted on the two genre-specific rundowns in December and broke into the top 10, but did not reach the highest rung.
Olivia Rodrigo Ups Her Count to Three No. 1s on Multiple Charts
You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love earns Rodrigo her third No. 1 on, coincidentally, three Billboard charts. She has now seen all of her studio LPs hit the highest space on the Billboard 200, as well as both the Top Album Sales and Vinyl Albums rankings.
