Olivia Rodrigo parks up at Number 1 on the Official Irish Singles Chart for a third straight week with Drivers License, while Sabrina Carpenter’s Skin, in part a response to Olivia’s track, claims this week’s highest new entry.

High School Musical: The Musical: The Series actress Olivia reigns supreme by outperforming her two nearest rivals combined, racking up the most streams of the past seven days.

Fellow Disney star Sabrina, who has starred in Disney Channel’s Girl Meets World, debuts at Number 12 with Skin, her first single with new record label Island Records. Skin is said to be about Sabrina’s relationship with Olivia’s co-star and rumoured ex-boyfriend Joshua Bassett, who appeared on last week’s Official Irish Singles Chart at Number 44 with his own Drivers License rebuttal Lie Lie Lie.
