Madonna Earns #1 On Billboard Artist 100; Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift Follow In Top 3

Madonna ranks as the top artist in America this week.

As her album “Madame X” bows at #1 on the Billboard 200, Madonna returns to the Billboard Artist 100 at #1.

The icon is actually topping the relatively new chart for the first time in her career.

A measure of the top artists in America, the Artist 100 accounts for factors like album sales, song consumption and social media activity.

Billie Eilish takes #2 on this week’s chart, while Taylor Swift earns #3. Bruce Springsteen re-enters at #4 thanks to his album release, while Jonas Brothers claim #5 on the listing.
