K-pop sensation Jennie has achieved a new personal best on the prestigious Billboard Hot 100 chart with her viral hit “Dracula.” The dynamic track impressively surged three positions from No. 8 last week, marking Jennie’s highest-charting entry on the Hot 100 throughout her illustrious career.
The journey of “Dracula” to chart success is unique. Initially a solo track by Tame Impala, released in October, the song experienced a massive resurgence following the debut of a captivating remix featuring BLACKPINK’s Jennie in February. This reimagined version quickly captivated audiences, going viral across various short-form video platforms and propelling its rapid ascent through the rankings.
Adding to this global momentum, Jennie’s recent string of three consecutive headlining performances at major European festivals, including the highly anticipated 2026 Mad Cool Festival in Madrid, significantly contributed to her enhanced global chart performance and widespread recognition.
Concurrently, singer-songwriter Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” continued its dominant run, holding firm at the top spot on the chart for an impressive 13th consecutive week.
