Taylor Swift’s “The Tortured Poets Department” has notched its 11th straight week at No. 1, holding off all challengers once again.

“Tortured Poets” now ties Swift’s career total for the most weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart. Both “Fearless” (2008) and “1989” (2014) reached the peak 11 times. But unlike those, which bobbed in and out of the top slot, the reign of “Tortured Poets” has so far been consecutive and uninterrupted. It started at No. 1 — way back in April — with record-breaking numbers, and has never left that position, beating out releases from Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa, the Atlanta rapper Gunna and the K-pop group Ateez.

According to Billboard, the last LP by a woman to spend at least 11 weeks in a row at No. 1 was Whitney Houston’s soundtrack to “The Bodyguard,” which posted 13 consecutive toppers (out of 20 total) in 1992 and 1993. Last year, Morgan Wallen’s “One Thing at a Time” had 12 straight weeks at No. 1, and eventually crowned the chart 19 times.

Last week, “Tortured Poets” had the equivalent of 114,000 sales in the United States, nearly flat from the week before. That includes 102 million streams and 35,000 sales as a complete package, according to the tracking service Luminate.

Throughout its run, the weekly sales of “Tortured Poets” have benefited from strategic drops of new “versions” of the album, offered with bonus tracks and for limited times. But Swift’s streaming numbers have remained strong, at least in aggregate, with the 31-track album never falling below 100 million weekly clicks.

Also this week, Megan Thee Stallion’s “Megan” opens at No. 3 with the equivalent of 74,000 sales, and Wallen’s “One Thing at a Time,” now in its 71st week on the chart, is No. 2. Eilish’s “Hit Me Hard and Soft” holds in fourth place, while Chappell Roan’s “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess” rises to No. 5, a new peak nearly 10 months after its release.
