AceShowbiz - Dua Lipa's new release "Future Nostalgia" has become the pop star's first chart-topping album in the U.K.
The singer came close to reaching the summit in 2017, when her self-titled debut peaked at three, but now she has finally landed her a first number one after "Future Nostalgia" rises one place to top Friday's Apr10, 2020 Official Charts Company rundown.
Expressing her delight, Dua tells OfficialCharts.com, "Getting a Number 1 in my home country is a dream come true!! I'm so grateful for all the love and the support, especially during these difficult times. Sending love to all of you and thank you for everything."
The "New Rules" hitmaker finishes 7,000 chart sales ahead of her nearest rival, Lewis Capaldi's "Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent", which climbs three places to two.
The Weeknd's "After Hours" is at three, Harry Styles' "Fine Line" rises to four, and Billie Eilish's "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?" completes the top five.
The Weeknd also hangs on to the top spot in the singles chart, with "Blinding Lights" spending its seventh non-consecutive week at number one.
Saint Jhn's "Roses" is at two and Drake's "Toosie Slide" enters the chart at three. There's also more chart success for Dua, as her tracks "Physical" and "Don't Start Now" are at four and five on the singles chart.
