Goth-tinged pop star Billie Eilish has made history as the first artist born in this century to land a No. 1 song — Bad Guy, in this case — on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
"AYYYYYEEEE WE MADE IT," the 17-year-old said on Instagram in reaction to the news.
The crown passed from one Gen-Zer to another as Bad Guy, the fifth single from Eilish's debut album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? dethroned Lil Nas X's Old Town Road, which had reigned for a record-breaking 19 weeks. The rapper was born in April 1999, less than two years before Eilish.
He took the news in stride, commending her on Twitter: "congratulations to billie eilish!! u deserve this!!"
