Taylor Swift's 'I Knew It, I Knew You' Debuts at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100

Taylor Swift's single, "I Knew It, I Knew You," has entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart at the No. 1 position. The song, which is inspired by the character Jessie from "Toy Story 5," is Swift's 15th career chart-topper.

With this debut, Swift now holds sole possession of the third-most No. 1s in the Hot 100's history, exceeding the records of Drake and Rihanna. She trails only The Beatles, who have 20 No. 1s, and Mariah Carey, with 19. "I Knew It, I Knew You" is also Swift's ninth No. 1 Hot 100 debut, surpassing Ariana Grande for the most among women. Furthermore, the track marks her 70th top 10 hit, extending her existing record for a woman artist.

This single is only the third Hot 100 No. 1 ever from an animated Disney movie and the first from Disney's Pixar studio. Previous No. 1s from animated Disney films include "We Don't Talk About Bruno" from "Encanto" in 2022 and Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle's "A Whole New World" from "Aladdin" in 1993.

In addition to its Hot 100 success, "I Knew It, I Knew You" also launched at No. 1 on the Hot Country Songs chart, becoming Swift's 10th leader on that chart.
