Ella Langley is dominating the music charts once again. Her hit single "Choosin' Texas" reclaimed the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week of March 7, 2026. This return to the summit marks Langley’s first multi-week chart-topper and cements her position as one of the most successful new voices in country music.

This achievement coincides with a landmark moment for women in the genre. For the first time in history, two female country artists simultaneously hold the top spots on Billboard’s two most prestigious charts. While Langley leads the Hot 100, Megan Moroney is sitting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with her latest album, Cloud 9.

Langley’s historic run began in February 2026, when she became the first woman to simultaneously lead the Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, and Country Airplay charts. Beyond her chart success, Langley is scheduled to perform a high-profile set at SXSW on March 14, 2026, where she will share the stage with Alanis Morissette.
