Little Mix made chart history, becoming the first girl group to land 100 weeks in the U.K. Official Singles Chart’s Top 10.

The trio’s “Heartbreak Anthem”, a collaboration with Galantis and David Guetta was the song to reach the milestone. The song came in at No. 7 on the chart this week.

The group has had 18 U.K. Top 10 singles, including five No. 1s, with the most recent being “Sweet Melody”.

They shared the exciting news on Twitter thanking fans for supporting them, “Heartbreak Anthem is #7 this week… which means IT’S OUR 100TH WEEK IN THE UK TOP 10. From Cannonball to Heartbreak Anthem we can’t thank you enough for your support over the years.”

“Heartbreak Anthem” has spent nine weeks in the Top 10, making it the group’s fifth most successful single. Their other top singles are “Sweet Melody”, which has spent 13 weeks in the Top 10, “Shout Out To My Ex” and “Reggaeton Lenton” (a collab with CNCO) follow at 11 weeks, and “Touch” at 10.

In May, Little Mix became the first all-women group in history to win the BRIT Award for Best British Group. They’ve been nominated for seven BRIT Awards and won three.
