Still #1 with 'In Da Club'. He stays at the #1 spot for 11 weeks.

The 1975 go to #1 in the U.S. with the album with the longest name to take the spot, I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware of It.

2017 - Katy Perry

The pop singer is given the National Equality Award from the Human Rights Campaign for supporting LGBTQ causes.

2019 - Lil Nas X

Out of nowhere, Lil Nas X's 'Old Town Road' hits the Country charts but is soon removed when Billboard decides it is "ineligible for the tally". Enter, Billy Ray Cyrus.
