Olivia Rodrigo makes it nine weeks on top of the singles chart with 'Drivers License', the longest-running debut number one in 15 years.

Olivia Rodrigo's 'Drivers License' has notched up a ninth successive week at the top of the UK singles chart, making it the longest-running debut number one since Gnarls Barkley's 'Crazy' in 2006.

The Disney starlet had her toughest chart race to date, however, with just 742 chart sales separating her from Nathan Evans's 'Wellerman' at number two.

Drake has three entries inside the Top 10 following the release of his new EP Scary Hours II, with 'What's Next' at four, 'Lemon Pepper Freestyle' featuring Rick Ross at six and Lil Baby collab 'Wants And Needs' at 10.

On the albums chart, Kings of Leon claim their sixth number one with new record When You See Yourself, with 65% of sales coming from physical.

Elsewhere, Gabrielle - recently seen as Harlequin on ITV's The Masked Singer - opens at an impressive fourth place with Do It Again, her seventh studio album and her highest-charting release in 20 years.
