Swift makes Billboard history as one of the only artists to secure 10 No. 1 hits, with "Cruel Summer" peaking after being reintroduced to fans during Eras Tour and subsequent live remix release.

Taylor Swift's single 'Cruel Summer,' originally from her seventh studio album 'Lover,' has reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, four years after its release.
The song's success came amid the 'Eras Tour,' Swift's career-spanning concert tour, where 'Cruel Summer' gained significant popularity.
