Title, Weeks at No. 1, Date Reached No. 1, Artist, Country of Origin
“Cheerleader,” six, July 25, 2015, OMI, Jamaica
“Can’t Feel My Face,” three, Aug. 22, The Weeknd, Canada
“What Do You Mean?,” one, Sept. 19, Justin Bieber, Canada
“The Hills,” six, Oct, 3, The Weeknd, Canada
“Hello,” 10, Nov. 14, Adele, England
“Sorry,” three, Jan. 23, 2016, Justin Bieber, Canada
“Love Yourself,” two, Feb. 13, Justin Bieber, Canada
“Pillowtalk,” one, Feb. 20, Zayn, England
“Work,” one (to date), March 5, Rihanna, Barbados, feat. Drake, Canada
The last American born signer anyone cared about was Wiz Khalifa and his song “See You Again”. We may as well start hosting the Grammy’s in Toronto and call it a day.
