The surging R&B/pop star matches Taylor Swift as the only acts to win the weekly chart triple crown.

As this point, it would probably be easier to list the charts on which The Weekndisn't No. 1.

As The Weeknd is the top musical act in the U.S. again, logging a sixth cumulative week at No. 1 on the Billboard Artist 100 chart (dated Sept. 26), he tops the list thanks to his domination on the Billboard Hot 100, with his smash single "Can't Feel My Face," and the Billboard 200 with his album Beauty Behind the Madness. Dating to the Artist 100's July 2014 launch, The Weeknd is the first solo male to top the Artist 100, Hot 100 and Billboard 200 in the same week.

Only one act had previously scored such a hat trick (a fitting term, by the way, since The Weeknd is from Canada): Taylor Swift, for seven weeks in December 2014-January 2015, with her album 1989 and singles "Shake It Off" (two weeks) and "Blank Space" (five).

The Weeknd's "Can't Feel My Face" rebounds 2-1 for a third nonconsecutive week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. It replaces Justin Bieber's "What Do You Mean?," which falls 1-3 after debuting atop the chart last week. Meanwhile,The Weeknd claims the Hot 100's top two spots, as "The Hills" rises 3-2, making him the first act to rank at Nos. 1 and 2 simultaneously, as a lead act on both songs, since 2009.

Destiny is for losers. It’s just a stupid excuse to wait for things to happen instead of making them happen

I like a few of his songs but I heard he's transphobic.

Receipts?

I saw that someone posted a screenshot of a tweet of him bashing Caitlyn Jenner on Dumblr but it was confirmed fake.
