It's official. Taylor Swift has now tied Bruno Mars and David Guetta by landing a seventh Number 1 on this week's official EE Big Top 40.

'The Fate of Ophelia' tops the chart this week joining the likes of 'Look What You Made Me Do', 'Gorgeous', 'ME! (feat. Brendon Urie)', 'You Need To Calm Down', 'The Joker And The Queen' and 'Anti-Hero'.

It's a huge week for Taylor in general. After releasing her 12th studio album The Life of a Showgirl on Friday, seven other songs from the project have debuted on the chart: 'Opalite' (3), 'The Life of a Showgirl (feat. Sabrina Carpenter)' (4), 'Wi$h Li$t (10), 'Actually Romantic (15)', 'Wood' (16), 'CANCELLED!' (18) and 'Honey' 21).

Taylor isn't the only artist making waves on the chart this week though. Also debuting in the Top 10 are Ricci G and N.Jay with their song 'Find My Way (Radio Mix)'.

Elsewhere, KPop Demon Hunters band Huntr/x are still in the Top 40 with 'Golden' at 20 and Ejae, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami all stopped by the show to catch up with our host Will Manning about their success, the behind the scenes recording process and so much more.

On top of that, Olivia Dean joins the chart at 27 with 'So Easy (To Fall In Love)' and Louis Tomlinson enters at 37 with his brand new single'Lemonade'.
