Justin Bieber has achieved a rare feat on this week's US Billboard Hot 100 chart
Justin Bieber's success shows little signs of slowing down yet, as he achieves a rare feat on this week's US singles chart.
While the superstar logs a third stint at Number 1 with Sorry, his track Love Yourself climbs from 3 to Number 2, meaning he holds the Top 2 positions on this week's Billboard Hot 100.
The feat makes Bieber only the 17th act in US chart history to occupy Numbers 1 and 2 on the tally - and the 11th to do so as a lead artist on both songs.

The Weeknd was the last act to hold Numbers 1 and 2 on the chart four months ago with Can't Feel My Face and The Hills. Other performers that have managed it include the Black Eyed Peas in 2009, Mariah Carey in 2005, Usher in 2004 and The Beatles in 1964.
If that wasn't enough, Bieber's previous single What Do You Mean logs its 21st week in this week's US Top 10, meaning it joins two other songs that jointly hold the record for the most amount of weeks in the Top 10 from its debut: Nicki Minaj's Starships and Maroon 5's Sugar. Will he have the record all to himself next week?
Elsewhere, Alessia Cara cracks the Top 5 with her debut smash Here, Shawn Mendes' Stitches lifts from 8 to 6, and The Chainsmokers crack the Top 10 with Roses, jumping from 11 to 8.

Back in the UK, Shawn Mendes' Stitches looks set for a second week at Number 1, and seven tracks from the likes of Alessia Cara and Jason Derulo look set to enter the Top 40 for the first time. Full story here.
