What do Ariana Grande and The Beatles have in common?
The Boca Raton pop singer has the top three singles on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart, a feat that hasn’t been done since the fab five ruled the charts in 1964, according to Billboard.com
Grande tops the chart with “7 Rings,’’ “Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I’m Bored,’’ and “Thank U, Next.” The trio of singles are from her fifth album “Thank You, Next.”
The Beatles led the chart with “Can’t Buy Me Love,” “Twist and Shout,” and “Do You Want to Know a Secret.”
On social media, Grande shared with fans, “thanks for making history with ya girl today. and for making me feel loved. bye crying.”
Rapper Drake nearly accomplished the feat last summer when he held the No. 1 ,2 and 4 spots on the Hot 100 with “Nice for What,” “Nonstop” and “God’s Plan.” (Fans may recall that the video for “God’s Plan” was filmed in Miami, Coral Gables and Miami Beach last year.) The Hot 100 uses data from radio airplay, digital sales and streaming services for the rankings.
Grande, 25, has been on a roll lately. Last week, she won a Grammy award for “Best Pop Vocal Album’’ for last summer’s “Sweetener,’’ which also debuted at No. 1. Her new album landed at the top of the Billboard 200 chart this week. And her video for “Thank U, Next” broke a YouTube record for most views within a 24-hour release last December.
