Rich Polk/Variety The year’s biggest hit single, Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas,” has racked up its 14th week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 — and has tied a record held by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey.
Langley’s song, which first topped the Hot 100 chart in February, ties Mariah Carey’s “We Belong Together” and Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” for the most weeks at No. 1, apart from holiday singles by female performers with no male-billed acts. That caveat is of course for Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” which has totaled some 22 weeks across seven years.
