Billie Eilish's Entire Catalog Climbs; Two-Thirds Of Her Albums Are Bestsellers Again

It's not unusual for Billie Eilish to see all three of her full-length albums appear on the charts near one another. Her discography remains hugely popular — even her oldest works, which are now half a decade into their lives on the weekly rankings.
As the weekly tallies in the United Kingdom become slightly less competitive following a deluge of Record Store Day releases, two of Eilish's three projects become bestselling titles once more. They not only return to sales-focused rankings, but do so on multiple tallies that measure pure purchases in the country.
Happier Than Ever and When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? both return to the Official Albums Sales and Official Physical Albums charts this week. Between the two, Happier Than Ever is the higher rising, but not by much. It's back at No. 55 on the physical-only list, which tracks purchases on CD, vinyl, and cassette, and No. 62 on the general sales tally. When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? is just a few spots behind, landing at Nos. 62 and 65 on those rosters, respectively.
Those same collections also hold up well on two other charts at the same time. As they return to the sales-based rankings, Happier Than Ever and When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? both climb slightly on the Official Albums roster — which tracks overall consumption — and the Official Albums Streaming list, which reflects the most-played full-lengths on Spotify, Apple Music, and various other platforms.
While fans are continuing to buy Happier Than Ever and When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, returning them to sales-only charts, Eilish's most recent full-length doesn't need to bounce back. Hit Me Hard and Soft rockets more than 50 spaces on both the Official Albums Sales and Official Physical Albums charts. It bolts from No. 83 to No. 28 on the general purchase-only tally and from No. 81 to No. 27 on the physical-focused list.
That same Grammy-nominated collection is also present inside the top 20 on both the Official Albums and Official Albums Streaming charts as well, as songs like 'Birds of a Feather' and 'Wildflower' continue to power it.
In the past, all three of Eilish's full-lengths have hit No. 1 on almost every single tally on which they appear at the moment. Only Happier Than Ever missed the summit, and on just one list, as it peaked at No. 2 on the streaming-only roster.
Most of her sets have spent 100 weeks or more on the U.K. charts. Hit Me Hard and Soft hasn't reached that milestone yet, but only because it's still relatively new – at least when compared to her other projects. The blockbuster is currently in its forty-ninth frame on each and every roster, and will almost certainly hit 52 weeks — its first full year — very soon.

Alex Warren Joins Olivia Rodrigo And Billie Eilish In A Major Chart Feat

Alex Warren leads the Hot 100 this week with 'Ordinary,' his breakout global smash. The young singer-songwriter — key word here being young — waited patiently in the wings of the ranking for weeks, sitting behind tracks by Kendrick Lamar, SZA, Morgan Wallen, and Tate McRae, but his time has finally come as Warren surges to the summit of the Hot 100. With this win, he joins a very select group of some of the hottest hitmakers in music today, all of whom share a somewhat hard-to-believe fact. According to Billboard, Warren is just the seventh musician born since 2000 to lead the Hot 100. That might seem nearly impossible, but it's important to remember that it's 2025, meaning most people born at the start of the millennium are now well out of college and firmly in the working world… So, difficult as it may be for some to accept, it's not exactly strange that some of them have found major success on the charts. Interestingly, the Hot 100 has now seen back-to-back leaders by artists born this century. McRae, who was born in 2003, snagged her first No. 1 just last week alongside Wallen with 'What I Want.' That tune is now replaced by 'Ordinary,' which comes from Warren, who is three years older than McRae and was born in 2000. The first artist born this century to dominate the Hot 100 was Billie Eilish. She managed the feat in the summer of 2019 with 'Bad Guy,' which remains her sole leader so far. Only one musician who fits this description has scored multiple No. 1s, Olivia Rodrigo. Born in 2003, the singer-songwriter has topped the most competitive songs tally in America with 'Drivers License,' 'Good 4 U,' and 'Vampire.' Three other musicians born in 2000 or later have also reached No. 1 on the Hot 100. That roundup includes Jawsh 685, 24kGoldn, and The Kid Laroi. This exclusive club will certainly grow in the coming years, especially as that generation ages and it becomes less and less surprising to see them hit the top spot on the busy ranking.

Ryan Lochte breaks silence on ‘difficult decision' behind divorce from wife Kayla Rae Reid

Famed Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte is opening up about his divorce from wife Kayla Rae Reid after seven years of marriage. In the wake of the former Playboy model's divorce revelation Wednesday, the 12-time Olympic medalist broke his silence in a candid Instagram post, expressing that while the decision 'hasn't been easy,' he believes 'it's the right step toward peace and well-being' for himself and Reid. 5 Ryan Lochte and Kayla Rae Reid revealed their divorce in June 2025. WireImage 'I want to take a moment to acknowledge what Kayla shared. This past year has brought major changes for both of us as we've come to the difficult decision to end our marriage,' the 40-year-old Lochte penned. 'I'm deeply grateful for the life we've built together and especially for the love we share for our three children. 'Although this decision hasn't been easy, I believe it's the right step toward peace and well-being for us both. I remain committed to healing, growth, and co-parenting with care and respect as we move forward separately.' 5 They have three children together. ryanlochte/Instagram Reid, who shares daughters Liv, 5, Georgia, 1, and 7-year-old son Caiden with Lochte, announced Wednesday she and the six-time Olympic gold medalist had gone their separate ways. 'Earlier this year, I made the hard decision to end my marriage after deep prayer and reflection,' she posted on social media. 'I hold marriage in the highest regard, so this has been one of the most painful, revealing, and challenging seasons of my life. I've been hesitant to share until I could do so from a place of healing — not from fresh, open wounds.' 5 Ryan Lochte and Kayla Rae Reid tied the knot in 2018. kaylaraereid/Instagram The message from Reid came roughly two months after she filed for divorce on March 26, according to People, citing court records. 'Sometimes we face trials we didn't choose or see coming. And in those moments, we're forced to make the hardest decisions to protect our peace, our children, and our future. I've come to the understanding that staying isn't always the most loving decision someone can make. For me, leaving was an act of love — for those around me and for myself,' Reid added in her message. 5 Court records show Kayla Rae Reid filed for divorce in March 2025. kaylaraereid/Instagram 'Living with transparency and authenticity has been how I have grown into the person I am today, and I'll continue to do so — while also protecting the parts of this journey that are private and unfolding in uncharted territory.' Lochte concluded his message Wednesday by thanking loved ones for their 'continued support' as he and Reid navigate new waters. 5 Ryan Lochte is a 12-time Olympic medalist. AFP/Getty Images 'It truly means a lot as we begin this next chapter,' he shared. Lochte married Reid in 2018 — two years after he found himself at the center of international controversy for falsely claiming he and teammates had been robbed at gunpoint during the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. He was dropped by sponsors in the aftermath and hit with a 10-month suspension from USA Swimming. Lochte expressed gratitude for Reid at the time as she stayed by his side through the scandal. 'Through everything that's happened, we've established ups and downs [that] most people establish in a relationship in 20 years. We did it in a matter of almost a year,' Lochte told 'Entertainment Tonight' in 2016. 'She stuck right there by me and just was my rock. That's when I knew. I was like, 'I'm not letting this one go.'' The pair got engaged in 2016.

Billie Eilish's Year-Old Album Returns To No. 1 On Multiple Charts

Billie Eilish's Hit Me Hard and Soft returns to No. 1 on two Billboard charts as it rises across ... More several tallies thanks to its one-year anniversary and her ongoing tour. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - MARCH 17: (FOR EDITORIAL USE ONLY) Billie Eilish performs onstage at the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards at Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California on March 17, 2025. Broadcasted live on FOX. (Photo byfor iHeartRadio) Billie Eilish is currently in the midst of her Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour. The singer-songwriter began the trek in the fall of 2024 and has dates scheduled through late 2025. At the moment, she's playing to massive crowds across Europe, and in the fall, she will return to the United States for a second leg due to overwhelming demand. The album that Eilish is promoting via the trek, Hit Me Hard and Soft, recently celebrated its first anniversary — and yet the American public is not done listening to it. Not even close. Hit Me Hard and Soft appears on half a dozen Billboard charts in the U.S. this week, and it climbs on every tally it inhabits. That's an impressive showing for a title that has now spent just over one year on each ranking it finds space on. Eilish's third full-length rises highest on both the Top Rock & Alternative Albums and Top Alternative Albums charts. Last frame, the title sat in the runner-up position on both, but now it's returned to No. 1. Eilish has now led the Top Rock & Alternative Albums roster for 41 frames with Hit Me Hard and Soft, while the collection has conquered the Top Alternative Albums tally for 46 stretches. Hit Me Hard and Soft also bolts back into the top 10 on three other Billboard lists. It climbs to No. 10 from No. 11 on the Top Streaming Albums chart and improves from eleventh place to ninth on both the Billboard 200 and Vinyl Albums rankings. The Grammy-nominated effort only misses out on a top 10 showing on the Top Album Sales chart, though it does gain ground there, jumping from No. 18 to No. 15. Interestingly, Hit Me Hard and Soft climbs across the board, even though total consumption of the project is actually down. Luminate reports that the set shifted 31,200 equivalent units in the past tracking period — a dip of just 1.5% from the previous frame. That said, sales of the full-length did rise, growing 6% to more than 4,100 copies.
