Taylor Swift's new album, 'The Life of a Showgirl,' has returned to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for a ninth non-consecutive week, according to the chart dated Dec. 20.

The Grammy winner's latest release not only debuted at No. 1 but also delivered exceptionally strong first-week figures, earning four million equivalent album units in the United States alone. Although overall consumption fell by 10% in the week ending Dec. 11, 'The Life of a Showgirl' still earned an impressive 89,000 equivalent album units. The figure stands out amid a growing number of holiday titles that traditionally benefit from sharp increases in streaming and sales at this time of year.
