Tate McRae's "Housewife" Holds No. 1 for a Second Week on Global Charts

Tate McRae's single "Housewife" stays at No. 1 on Billboard's Global 200 for a second week, according to the chart dated Nov. 7, 2026. It also holds the top spot on the Global Excl. U.S. chart for a second week.

The Global 200 ranks songs by streaming and sales from more than 200 territories, with the data compiled by Luminate, a company that tracks music consumption. The Global Excl. U.S. chart uses the same measures but leaves out American numbers. Billboard reported the latest standings in a chart update published on 2 November.

In the tracking week of 23 to 29 October, "Housewife" recorded 64.1 million global streams, up 15%, and 3,000 global sales, down 52%, according to Luminate. A stream is one play on a streaming service, and a sale is a download or purchase. Outside the U.S., the song logged 44.2 million streams, up 32%.

The track also debuted at No. 1 on the Global 200 chart dated 31 October. It is McRae's second No. 1 on each chart and her first debut at the top. Her earlier single "Greedy" led the Global 200 for two weeks and the Global Excl. U.S. chart for five weeks in 2023 and 2024. Billboard reported that "Housewife" opened on Spotify's global chart with 5.67 million streams, which it called her biggest streaming debut to date.

The song was announced on social media for release on 15 October. Behind it, another track is moving up the charts. Jamie Miller's "Babydoll" rose from No. 37 to No. 10 on the Global 200, his first top 10 on that chart. On the Global Excl. U.S. chart it climbed from No. 31 to No. 9, also a first top 10. The song drew 19.8 million worldwide streams, up 36%, and 13,000 worldwide sales, up 55%, in the same tracking week.

In the UK, "Babydoll" spent a second consecutive week at No. 1 on the Official Singles Chart, the weekly ranking compiled by the Official Charts Company. "Housewife" debuted at No. 2 on that chart behind it, the company said.

Brazilian duo Felipe & Rodrigo also reached a first top 10 on the Global Excl. U.S. chart. Their song "Pos (Em Brasilia)" rose from No. 16 to No. 10, with 18.7 million streams outside the U.S., up 8%.

Every stream is a small payment to the people who wrote, recorded and own the song, so chart movement has money attached. The weekly figures also show how far a song travels. A track from a Canadian-born pop singer, a British singer and a Brazilian duo can sit side by side on the same list, counted by the same method.
