Rose's APT Surpasses BTS's Dynamite, Creates Major Billboard Record
Last Updated: Rose and Bruno Mars' APT have been achieving multiple records over the past months since its release in October 2024. Rose and Bruno Mars' APT remains unstoppable! Since its release in October 2024, the song has been touching new heights, breaking records every now and then. In the latest instance, APT has added another feather to the artists' caps, bringing in a historic milestone on the Billboard charts. Earlier this week, the smash hit song climbed back to the No. 22 spot in its 32nd consecutive week on the Hot 100, tying the record for the second-longest charting song by a K-pop artist on the list. APT remained in the 28th position last week, only to climb back to the 22nd place, Billboard revealed on June 3. Guess who might be Rose's direct competition? It is none other than the K-pop sensation BTS, whose 2020 hit song Dynamite achieved 32 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100. Prior to this, the longest-charting record for a K-pop female artist was held by FIFTY FIFTY's Cupid, which held onto the chart for 25 weeks. While Rose has already surpassed the milestone with APT's position in the upper ranks for more than eight months, it is yet to be seen if it can move ahead of the BTS song. View this post on Instagram A post shared by ROSÉ (@roses_are_rosie) As of now, BTS star Jimin's WHO is the overall longest-charting K-pop song, which appeared on the chart for 33 weeks in a row. Rose's Records Rose's solo album Rosie became the first by a female K-pop soloist to have spent 25 weeks on the Billboard 200, ranking No. 168 this week. Coming back to the records created by APT, the song has been holding onto its spot at No. 3 on both Billboard's Global 200 and Global Exclusive US chart, besides climbing to No. 18 on the Digital Song Sales chart and re-entering the Streaming Songs chart at No. 35. Prior to that, APT also took on the No. 23 spot on Billboard's Radio Songs chart—the one that ranks every week's most popular songs by airplay on US radio stations across all musical genres. In another major feat, the Rose and Bruno Mars song broke the record for spending the most weeks in Billboard Hot 100's top 10 by a K-pop soloist. The record was previously held by PSY's Gangnam Style. Location : Mumbai, India, India First Published: June 05, 2025, 09:25 IST

Who Is Benson Boone? Meet Nora Fatehi's Rumoured Boyfriend And Viral Pop Star
Last Updated: As Nora Fatehi sparks dating buzz with Benson Boone, here's everything to know about the viral pop sensation and rising global star. Nora Fatehi made waves at the 2025 American Music Awards, not just with her striking presence but also due to her bond with American pop star Benson Boone. The duo's interactions quickly sparked dating rumours. According to Filmfare, an insider revealed, 'They were totally locked in. There was undeniable chemistry, definitely more than just small talk." While neither Nora nor Benson has commented on the growing speculation, fans are eager to know more about the new face lighting up headlines alongside the global diva. Who is Benson Boone? The 21-year-old singer rose to fame through American Idol in early 2021. At just 18, Boone auditioned in front of Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan, despite having sung for only a year. He was handed a golden ticket to Hollywood Week, but exited the competition early. Explaining his decision, he shared in an interview, 'I didn't want to show the world someone I'm not. Social media is the biggest opportunity to get people to know you personally." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Benson Boone Nation 🍟 (@bensonboonenation) Later on The Zach Sang Show, Benson revealed, 'The reason I quit American Idol is because I wanted to do music… I just didn't want that label on me." He added that his parents, initially confused, supported his decision after he expressed his desire to be known for his music, not reality TV fame. Benson then turned to TikTok, where he quickly went viral. Before releasing his first single Ghost Town, he had already amassed 1.7 million followers. The single went on to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned him appearances on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, and Late Night with Seth Meyers. In 2024, Taylor Swift announced Boone as one of the openers for her Eras Tour London shows at Wembley. He also made a splash at Coachella 2025 with two live performances. Now, with dating rumours linking him to Nora Fatehi, Boone is gaining traction with Indian fans too. First Published: June 04, 2025, 03:41 IST
