Sabrina Carpenter is on course to secure another UK No.1 single, while Chappell Roan looks set to break into the country's top 10 for the first time.
Carpenter's “Please Please Please” tops the UK chart midweek and is at number one for a second week — setting Carpenter up for another major career milestone.
The track, produced by Jack Antonoff, is the second single from Carpenter's sixth studio LP, Short 'n' Sweetwhich was released on 6 June, following her previous UK No.1 hit with 'Espresso'.
On June 21, Carpenter achieved a remarkable feat when “Please, Please, Please” dethroned Eminem's “Houdini” to secure her second UK leader in less than two months, while “Espresso” held strong on No. 2.
The achievement set a new official chart record, with Carpenter becoming the youngest female solo artist in history to hold both the No. 1 and No. 2 positions on the Official Singles Chart at the age of 25 years, 1 month and 10 days, surpassing previous record by Ariana Grande.
Grande was 25 years, 7 months and 20 days old when she achieved the same feat in February 2019 with '7 rings' and 'without your girlfriend, I'm bored' respectively topping the chart.
Meanwhile, Chappell Roan makes a strong bid for her first UK top 10 entry with her single 'Good Luck, Babe'.
