The U.S. pop phenomenon holds top spot on the ARIA Chart, published Friday, June 14, ahead of Taylor Swift’s former leader, The Tortured Poets Department (Universal), unchanged at No. 2.
The podium is completed by British artist and producer Charli XCX, whose Brat (Atlantic/Warner) bows at No. 3. Brat is her third top 10 appearance in Australia following 2019’s Charli, which peaked at No. 7, and 2022’s Crash, which led the frame for one week.

Over on the ARIA Singles Chart, Eminem’s new track “Houdini” (Interscope/Universal) holds at No. 1 for a second consecutive week.

The highest-flying homegrown track belongs to Australian singer and producer Cyril with “Stumblin’ In” (Spinnin’ Records/Warners), unmoved at No. 32. The groovy cut interpolates the Suzi Quatro and Chris Norman song from the late ‘70s, which was co-written and produced by another Australian, Mike Chapman.
