It comes just a few hours after Idris hosted the legendary, long-running American TV show Saturday Night Live.
'Boasty' is a collaboration between actor and DJ Idris and rappers Wiley, Sean Paul and Stefflon Don.
Idris had a little bit of love advice for Will and put to bed rumours that he's in line to be the next James Bond.
This week's Number 1 went to Pink, with her new single 'Walk Me Home' topping the chart for a third week in-a-row.
Two songs from The Prodigy featured in the chart this week, following the tragic death of the group's lead singer Keith Flint: 'Firestarter' was at Number 7 and 'Breathe' at Number 31.
Troye Sivan also joined Will on the show and there were also New Entries from the likes of Louis Tomlinson and Ava Max.
