Billie Eilish's Only No. 1 Hit Demoted Again Within Her Discography

Billie Eilish's Only No. 1 Hit Demoted Again Within Her Discography

Forbes3 days ago

For much of her career, Billie Eilish has been known as the 'bad guy,' thanks to her breakout hit of the same name, which is the tune that propelled her to global superstardom. More than half a decade later, 'Bad Guy' is no longer the sturdiest in her catalog when it comes to chart longevity. As of this frame, another tune has passed it on the most important songs ranking in America.
'Wildflower,' Eilish's latest single from her most recent album Hit Me Hard and Soft, climbs on this week's Hot 100, pushing from No. 58 to No. 44. This marks its fiftieth frame on the ranking of the most consumed songs in America.
Now that 'Wildflower' has lived on the Hot 100 for 50 weeks, it breaks its tie with 'Bad Guy' and officially becomes Eilish's second-longest-charting track ever. 'Bad Guy' remained on the tally for 49 periods between April and August of 2019. While it has now been demoted to third place on the list of her longest-running wins on the Hot 100, it is still her sole No. 1.
Meanwhile, 'Birds of a Feather' continues to extend its lead as Eilish's track with the most time spent on the Hot 100. The biggest single from Hit Me Hard and Soft inches closer to the top 10, lifting four spaces to No. 13 after previously topping out at No. 2. It does so as it reaches 54 weeks on the roster, and it seems likely to continue adding to that total in the coming frames.
'Wildflower' is performing so well in the U.S. thanks to a healthy mix of streaming activity and radio attention. The track appears on multiple streaming-only tallies, and it currently sits at No. 6 on both the Rock Streaming Songs and Alternative Streaming Songs rankings. The tune is also rising at top 40 radio, and this time around it manages to climb to a new all-time high of No. 15 on the Pop Airplay chart.

‘Hazardous History With Henry Winkler' Review: Perilous Products and Pastimes

Former children who had the skin peeled off their legs by a 150-degree-Fahrenheit playground slide, broke an arm falling off the monkey bars or became impaled on human teeth at Action Park will have a fondness for 'Hazardous History With Henry Winkler.' It's a goofball series with no production values that celebrates a world with no rules—rules that keep humans from killing themselves. Is there a message? Yes, that our affinity for self-destruction knows no limits. But to paraphrase Mark Twain, persons attempting to find a moral here will be shot, perhaps by a flame-throwing '40s-era 'toy' pistol that fired ping-pong balls at about 50 mph. 'Thrilling' and 'exciting' are how the former Fonz describes the days of unlicensed drivers, head-on train collisions staged as entertainment, and radioactive children's 'laboratories' that came in a box with uranium. But the experts interviewed—who range from an astrophysicist to a 'Jeopardy!' champion—are mostly incredulous. What kind of world do we live in where popular amusements once involved people riding horses off diving boards, getting in boxing rings with bears, and wrestling octopuses? Well, as the show spells out without spelling it out, a world in which everything that works, or is fun, is taken to an extreme—at which point regulations come into it, if only to protect the animals.

IRONHEART Actress Dominique Thorne Says in Light of Robert Downey Jr.'s Approval of Her Character, Fans Should "Get on the Bandwagon" — GeekTyrant

Ironheart actress Dominique Thorne made her Marvel debut as Riri Williams in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022), and the character filled a bit of a void left by Tony Stark when he was ultimately sacrificed in Avengers: Endgame (2019). The parallels are obvious, with the pair each being tech geniuses who have the capability to create highly advanced robotics to help serve the good guys in the fight against evil. While Thorne's return to the MCU has been drawn out, we will see her return to play the lead in the Ironheart series, out later this month, and she teased a possible appearance in the upcoming Avengers films. In a recent interview with The Direct, Thorne was asked if we could expect to see her in Avengers: Doomsday or Avengers: Secret Wars . She responded, coyly, "Oh, you know, what can I say? The odds might be in our favor. Who knows? We'll see. We'll see." For fans who have not yet embraced her character, Thorne threw around the fact that Tony Stark actor Robert Downey Jr. himself has endorsed her, saying: "I would say get on the bandwagon. It's here. We're here... I mean, Tony's on the bandwagon, so you know, what's the problem? RDJ is here. It's nice here. It's cute here. It's comfy here. It smells good here." She also teased Riri's abilities in the upcoming series, stating, "I think we've got little tastes and teases of that previously. Throughout, you know, the phases that have led us here. But this, absolutely, to me, feels like new territory in terms of how tech and magic can merge, how they can work together, how they might clash. 'It's fun, it's exciting, it's dangerous, it's risky. It's all the things that you might expect. So, yeah, just another reason to lean in and see where this takes us in the broader context of the MCU." Ironheart will kick off with its first three episodes streaming on Disney+ on June 24, 2025, with three more episodes dropping weekly.
