Adele's 'Hello' Leads Hot 100 for Ninth Week 1
Adele's "Hello" tops the Billboard Hot 100 (dated Jan. 9) for a ninth week, continuing her longest command atop the chart. It has spent all of its weeks at No. 1, after debuting atop the Nov. 14 tally.

As we do every Monday, let's run down the Hot 100's top 10 and beyond. Highlights of the airplay/sales/streaming-based Hot 100 post on Billboard.com each Monday, with all charts updated each Tuesday.

With a ninth week atop the Hot 100 for "Hello," released on XL/Columbia Records, Adele extends her longest No. 1 stay: last week, the song bested the reign of her first leader, "Rolling in the Deep," which ruled for seven weeks in 2011. Additionally, "Hello" is the longest-leading Hot 100 No. 1 by a solo female since Lorde's "Royals," which crowned the chart for nine weeks in October-December 2013.
