The answer is obvious, it was the most popular song this week and none of the artists you named managed to achieve that feat yet, but they outweigh her success in other areas. I think a more interesting question to ask is why you only chose to make this argument about women.

ALGAYDO 32,627 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 She does nothing for the song; they could've easily had someone else do her part and had the same success The song is a total bop tho so you haters can deal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwontell 7,312 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Nothing against her, but the chainsmokers have a #1, she just happens to be in it...it could've been Ari, Nicki, Lana...so, to answer your question, "right place, right time"...? ATTENTION: (bad) jokes and sarcasm are still a thing, so don't take everything I say literally. Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A featured artist is credited as having a #1 e.g. Drake has 3 #1s but only one solo #1. 2 minutes ago, Harry said: Why do we so often try to follow this ATRL thread format here?

I think a more interesting question to ask is why you only chose to make this argument about women. I'm simply asking why an artist who has significantly less success and relevance than other pop girls has been able to score a #1 before them  Nothing to do with gender or misogyny  Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustPokeHerFace 2,564 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I'm just happy that she got it TBH. She has great album sales, star potential and a fervent fan base in her corner, and a hit was the last thing that she needed. Her second era is going to be insane, I bet she'll get a few solo top 10s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runway 27,876 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Because her own music is weak and cant get a solo hit? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GloZell Green 11,723 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Not the Hasloo fans being the new Xtina fans  It's not her song, she's featured on it. The Chainsmokers are the ones responsible for the boost due to the fact that they just had a top 10 hit. And Hasley? Lady Gaga | Shakira Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is their gender, no? That is the factor that has caused you to group them all together, no? I simply asked why that is. Why are we not comparing her achievement to popular male artists without #1s like Nick Jonas, 5 Seconds of Summer and Shawn Mendes? I'm genuinely curious. Never said it was anything about misogyny so I'm confused that you chose to bring that up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly didn't even think about those artists, but feel free to add them to the discussion. You make a good point, but I was just comparing Halsey to other pop girls who are mentioned the most on GGD/ATRL/Twitter etc. Put your white tennis shoes on and follow me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HausOfNicole 177 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Closer is a great song that lyrically hits where the young generation is, plus the production is bouncy and fun. Halsey's feature was perfect and fit in with the vibe of the song. Also you don't get to deserve to be #1. It's simply about a songs popularity. That's actually the biggest problem in pop music right now. Everyone is fighting for a charting position instead if trying to make good relatable music. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
