Billboard reported Monday that "Choosin' Texas" has spent its staggering 27th week in the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100.
The track from Langley previously broke the record once it reached 23 weeks in the number one spot. It tied Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" at the 22-week mark.
Now, the "Choosin' Texas" star isn't just holding the record. She's widening the gap to a level that will likely stand for years to come.
