Olivia Rodrigo is on course to hold on to the top spot in the UK singles chart after she set a new streaming record earlier this week.
On Friday, the Official Charts Company revealed the US artist’s song Drivers License was streamed 2.4 million times on Tuesday, which was a new record for the number of streams in a single day for a non-Christmas song.
Rodrigo, 17, also had the biggest opening week of overall chart sales for a number one debut single since Zayn Malik’s Pillowtalk in February 2016.
