Selena debuts at number 9 on Billboard Hot 100

Selena Gomez closes out the Hot 100’s top 10, as “Good for You” rockets onto the chart at No. 9, marking her highest career debut. She instantly notches her third top 10, following “The Heart Wants What It Wants,” which reached No. 6 in December, and “Come & Get It” (also No. 6, 2013). “Good” is the second song to start in the top 10 this year, following Maroon 5’s “Sugar,” which bowed at No. 8 on Jan. 31, on its way to a No. 2 peak. It’s the first top 10 opener by a woman since Swift’s “Shake” debuted at No. 1 (Sept. 6, 2014). (Featured rapper A$AP Rocky collects his second Hot 100 top 10.)

The lead track from Gomez’s upcoming album, “Good” debuts at No. 1 on Digital Songs, becoming her, and A$AP Rocky’s, first leader on the list. (It’s the first No. 1 starter on Digital Songs since Swift’s “Blank Space” in November.) The song arrives with 179,000 downloads sold, Gomez’s best sales week ever for a song. It also begins on Streaming Songs at No. 27 (4.5 million) and, as previously reported, on Pop Songs at No. 21; it ranks below Radio Songs with 25 million in listenership. Helping push its streaming totals and overall buzz, its official video premiered June 26.
