Lady Gaga Earns A Milestone New No. 1 With Her Latest Dance Smash

Lady Gaga and Doechii released their high-energy collaboration “Runway” with only a few hours left in one tracking period, as the tune dropped on a Thursday. The song sold well enough in an extremely short period of time — well enough to become a top 10 hit on a single Billboard chart. “Runway” launched at No. 10 on the Dance Digital Song Sales tally last frame, and this time around, its second stint on the ranking, the track soars.

Now that “Runway” has enjoyed a complete seven-day tracking period in which to sell and stream, the cut, which was written and recorded for The Devil Wears Prada 2, launches on multiple lists in America. The smash also flies all the way to the summit on the one rundown where it debuted only a few days ago.

Lady Gaga and Doechii’s “Runway” Surges to No. 1

Gaga and Doechii command the Dance Digital Song Sales chart this week. “Runway” sashays from tenth place to No. 1. It replaces “Dracula” by Tame Impala and Blackpink superstar Jennie in the highest spot. That collab dips to No. 2, while Katseye’s latest single “Pinky Up” arrives at No. 3.

“Runway” Becomes Lady Gaga’s Tenth No. 1

Gaga scores her milestone tenth winner on the Dance Digital Song Sales chart as “Runway” flies to No. 1. Two of those tracks, “Abracadabra” and “Telephone,” a duet with Beyoncé, led the way for double-digit frames.

Here are all of Lady Gaga’s No. 1s on Billboard’s Dance Digital Song Sales chart.

• “Abracadabra”
• “Applause”
• “Bad Romance”
• “Judas”
• “Rain On Me” with Ariana Grande
• “Runway” with Doechii
• “Stupid Love”
• “Telephone” with Beyonce
• “The Dead Dance”
• “Vanish Into You”

Lady Gaga’s “Runway” Becomes Another Top 10 as Well

Throughout her career, Gaga has placed 52 tunes somewhere on the Dance Digital Song Sales roster. A little more than half of those have peaked beneath the No. 10 space, and well over a dozen stalled lower than No. 15, where the tally concludes these days. “Runway” marks her twenty-fourth top 10.

Lady Gaga’s 2025 Included Three New No. 1s

“Runway” earns Gaga her first trip to the Dance Digital Song Sales chart in 2026, though last year was a very busy one for the Grammy and Oscar winner. Three of the singer’s No. 1s — just a third of all of her rulers before this frame — hit the penthouse in 2025. That collection includes “Abracadabra,” “Vanish Into You” – a non-single from her album Mayhem – as well as “The Dead Dance.”

Doechii’s “Runway” Marks First No. 1

Doechii only landed on the Dance Digital Song Sales chart for the first time a little more than a year ago, and “Runway” marks her third trip to the rundown. Before this period, “ExtraL,” her team-up with the aforementioned Jennie, stood as her highest-rising win. That cut launched and topped out at No. 3 last March.

“Alter Ego,” which also credits hip-hop musician JT, peaked at No. 7. “Runway” stood as Doechii’s worst performer only a few days ago when it kicked off its time at No. 10, but now it has transitioned into her first leader.

Lady Gaga and Doechii’s “Runway” Debuts Across Billboard Charts

At the moment, “Runway” appears on nine Billboard charts, debuting on all but the Dance Digital Song Sales ranking. The track is also an immediate top 10 win on the Digital Song Sales, Hot Dance/Pop Songs, and Dance Streaming Songs tallies, entering those three rundowns at No. 5.

The cut also opens on both the Pop Airplay and Adult Pop Airplay charts, coming in at Nos. 30 and 34, respectively. Looking at several general consumption tallies, Gaga and Doechii make it to the Billboard Hot 100 (No. 50), as well as both the Billboard Global 200 (No. 70) and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. (No. 79).
