Chart Milestone and Immediate Impact

Ariana Grande’s single “Hate That I Made You Love Me” entered the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 1 for the chart dated June 13, 2026, giving the pop star her tenth number-one hit. The rankings were posted on Billboard.com on June 9, 2026. The achievement ties Grande with other artists for the tenth-most No. 1s in the chart’s history. The song also extends producer Max Martin’s record to 28 Hot 100 No. 1s, the most among producers, and to 30 No. 1s as a songwriter, second only to Paul McCartney’s 32.

Background: Recent Releases and Tour

Grande’s previous album, *Eternal Sunshine* (2024), earned three Grammy Award nominations. The new single serves as the lead track from her upcoming eighth studio album, *Petal*, scheduled for release on July 31, 2026. The No. 1 debut follows the launch of Grande’s “Eternal Sunshine” tour, which began in Oakland on June 7, 2026, with additional dates at Crypto.com Arena and the Kia Forum in Los Angeles.

Official Statements & Responses

Billboard confirmed that “Hate That I Made You Love Me” secured Grande’s tenth No. 1 on the Hot 100. Luminate, the independent data provider for Billboard, stated that it conducts a thorough review of all data submissions, removing any suspicious or unverifiable entries before final chart calculations.

Why It Matters

The milestone reinforces Grande’s status as one of the most successful female pop artists in Billboard history and highlights Max Martin’s continued dominance in contemporary pop production. The chart-topping performance also positions Grande for a potential record-breaking run, as industry observers note that Taylor Swift’s “I Knew It, I Knew You” from the *Toy Story 5* soundtrack could challenge the top spot on the following week’s Hot 100. The achievement also underscores the evolving role of streaming in determining chart outcomes.

What’s Next

Grande’s album *Petal* will arrive at the end of July, accompanied by the ongoing “Eternal Sunshine” tour dates across North America. The next Hot 100 chart is expected to feature competition from Swift’s soundtrack single, setting the stage for a high-profile chart battle.
