Madonna scores her ninth career No. 1 on Billboard’s Dance Airplay chart, and her second from her new album, Confessions II, as “Love Sensation” rises to the top of the Aug. 8-dated ranking.

The track, released in June ahead of the album’s July 3 arrival, climbs 2-1 with a 28% increase in plays among the chart’s 24/7 dance reporters during the July 24-30 tracking week, according to Luminate.

The song follows “I Feel So Free,” which topped Dance Airplay in May, becoming Madonna’s first radio No. 1 in 18 years.

Here’s an updated look at all of Madonna’s Dance Airplay No. 1s since the chart began in 2003:

Title (weeks at No. 1, peak year)

“Love Sensation” (one week to date, 2026) “I Feel So Free” (one, 2026) “Miles Away” (two weeks, 2008) “Give It 2 Me” (one, 2008) “4 Minutes,” feat. Justin Timberlake & Timbaland (one, 2008) “Jump” (five, 2006) “Get Together” (four, 2006) “Sorry” (seven, 2006) “Hung Up” (eight, 2005)

Madonna ties Ellie Goulding for the fifth-most leaders in the chart’s history, trailing only David Guetta (21), Calvin Harris (19), Rihanna (12) and The Chainsmokers (11).

Outside of Dance Airplay, Madonna has charted across 10 other currently active Billboard radio rankings throughout her career: Pop Airplay, Adult Pop Airplay, Adult Contemporary, Rhythmic Airplay, R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay, Latin Airplay, Latin Pop Airplay, Tropical Airplay, Holiday Airplay and the all-format Radio Songs chart. (Fellow Confessions II single “Bring Your Love,” with Sabrina Carpenter, reached all three pop/adult charts, as well as Dance Airplay.)

The Queen of Pop has an even more extensive history on Billboard’s (currently inactive) Dance Club Songs chart, where she achieved a record 50 No. 1s from 1983 through 2020, when “I Don’t Search I Find” became her 50th. She is the only artist with at least 50 leaders on any single Billboard chart. To celebrate the milestone, Madonna released the Finally Enough Love: 50 Number Ones in August 2022. The set bowed at No. 1 on Top Dance Albums and No. 8 on the Billboard 200.

In July, Confessions II earned Madonna her landmark 10th No. 1 album on the Billboard 200. She became just the fourth act with at least 10 No. 1s on both the Billboard 200 and Billboard Hot 100, where she has collected 12. She joined The Beatles, Drake and Taylor Swift for the feat.

Confessions II opened with 134,000 equivalent album units earned in its opening week, marking Madonna’s biggest week by units since the Billboard 200 transitioned to that methodology in December 2014.
