Little Mix make it a second week at No.1

That's longer than 'Pillowtalk' lasted


Little Mix can crack open the sparkling water again, as 'Shout Out to My Ex' makes it two weeks at number one.

Not only that, it sold even better this time than it did last week, apparently.

The Official Charts Company reports that the girls notched up 112,000 combined sales, higher than last week's 95,000, which was the highest opening-week download sales for this year.

Not only that, but it's officially number one longer than Zayn Malik's 'Pillowtalk' - not that there's any connection of course... just saying that the Glory Days era is off to a good start, despite the occasional Instagram hiccup.

The rest of the top five hasn't moved since last week either, so that's James Arthur with 'Say You Won't Let Go' at two, Chainsmokers with 'Closer' featuring Halsey at three, The Weeknd with 'Starboy' featuring Daft Punk at four and Hailee Steinfeld and Zedd rounding out the top five with 'Starving".

Let's change things up a little bit next week, yeah guys?

Just outside the top five, we've got Norwegian producer/DJ type Neiked with his track 'Sexual'. Fun fact: Dyo is the guest vocalist on the track, and this is her fifth UK Top 10.

Elsewhere, Clean Bandit may have said goodbye to Neil Amin-Smith but they can also say hello to another top ten in the form of 'Rockabye', which debuts at seven.

After his performance on The X Factor last week, Shawn Mendes's track 'Mercy' has shot 25 places to No. 15.

And on the outskirts of the top 40 we've got Drake entering at 37 with 'Fake Love' - is this going to become a 'One Dance' sized sleeper hit?

Not if the charts don't move around much next week. Sort it out people.
