Ariana Grande Comments As “Thank U, Next” Hits #1 On Billboard Hot 100; “I Don’t Really Have Words”

Ariana Grande scores her first career #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

As reported by Headline Planet Monday morning, Ariana Grande’s “thank u, next” has earned #1 on this week’s Billboard Hot 100. The publication is expected to make the official announcement later today.

Grande did not, however, wait until then to publicly celebrate the news.

“For once i don’t really have words,” wrote Grande in a Tweet. “i love u so much and thank u.”

She also shared a visual celebrating the achievement.

“thank u, next” becomes the first #1 for Grande, who previously peaked at #2 with “Problem (featuring Iggy Azalea).”

Along with topping the Hot 100, “thank u, next” is officially #1 on this week’s Billboard Digital Song Sales chart. While not yet confirmed by Billboard, it is also expected to crown Streaming Songs.
