Talent Billboard Chart Facts:

Kelly Clarkson
Since making a splash on Billboard's charts back in 2002, after being crowned the first winner of "American Idol," Kelly Clarkson has notched three No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200 chart and claimed more than 20 top 40-charting singles on the Billboard Hot 100 (including three No. 1s). Her most recent album, Meaning Of Life, marked the singer-songwriter's eighth top 10 album on the Billboard 200 chart, and spun off three top 20-charting hits on the Adult Pop Songs airplay chart. In total, Clarkson has sold over 50 million albums and digital tracks in the U.S., according to Nielsen Music.

Lauren Daigle
Lauren Daigle has notched three No. 1s on Billboard's Top Christian Albums chart, all since 2015's How Can It Be, Behold: A Christmas Collection and Look Up Child. The Louisiana native has earned four No. 1s on Hot Christian Songs, including "You Say," which crossed over to the Billboard Hot 100's top 40 and the top 10 of the Adult Pop Songs and Adult Contemporary airplay charts.

Khalid
It's been only three years since Khalid made his Billboard chart debut, but he's quickly established himself as a chart force and streaming juggernaut. His catalog of songs have earned more than 4.7 billion on-demand streams in the U.S., according to Nielsen Music, while his albums have tallied over 3 million equivalent album units. His album, American Teen and EP SunCity, both hit No. 1 on Billboard's Top R&B Albums chart, while he's also claimed a pair of No. 1s on the Hot R&B Songs chart: "Young Dumb & Broke" and "Better." His success isn't restricted to the R&B charts, as he's also notched two No. 1s on the Pop Songs chart, with "Love Lies," with Normani, and "Eastside," with Benny Blanco and Halsey. Most recently, Khalid released his highly anticipated sophomore album Free Spirit.

Panic! At The Disco
Over a dozen years into its career, Brendon Urie-fronted Panic! At The Disco is hitting new heights on Billboard's charts. The act scored its first No. 1 Billboard 200 album, Death of a Bachelor, in 2016 and followed with its second, Pray for the Wicked, in 2018. The latter LP also generated Panic's single "High Hopes," which became the act's second Hot 100 top 10, and first since 2006. "High Hopes" also hit #1 simultaneously across three Billboard radio airplay charts (Pop Songs, Alternative, and Adult Pop) while also holding the longest #1 position this decade on the Adult Pop Songs chart. 2018 also brought the act's first two No. 1 hits on the Alternative Songs chart.

Sam Smith
Just six years after Sam Smith made his Billboard chart debut, the singer-songwriter has racked up a string of hit albums and singles on the charts. His debut full-length studio album In the Lonely Hour reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart in 2014, and launched the No. 1 Pop Songs airplay chart hit "Stay With Me," which also reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100. Lonely went on to earn over 5 million equivalent album units in the U.S., according to Nielsen, while its songs generated 2 billion on-demand audio streams. Smith's second studio release, The Thrill Of It All, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and was led by the top 5 Billboard Hot 100 hit song "Too Good at Goodbyes." Most recently, Smith's duet with Normani, "Dancing With a Stranger," reached the top 10 on the Adult Pop Songs airplay chart and the top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Normani
Normani took the charts by storm in 2018 with her hit single "Love Lies" with Khalid. The track spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Pop Songs airplay chart, tied the record for the longest-run ever on the Pop Songs chart, hit No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100, and collected more than a half-billion on-demand streams in the U.S., according to Nielsen Music. She followed "Love Lies" up with another smash duet, "Dancing With a Stranger," with Sam Smith. The track hit the top 10 on both Pop Songs and Adult Pop Songs airplay charts, and became her second top 20-charting hit on the Hot 100. Before Normani notched hits with "Love Lies" and "Dancing with a Stranger," she earned chart success as a member of the pop vocal group Fifth Harmony, which notched four top 10-charting albums on the Billboard 200, and four top 40 hits on the Hot 100 between 2013 and 2017.

"Billboard Music Awards" nominees and winners are based on key fan interactions with music, including album and digital song sales, streaming, radio airplay, touring and social engagement, tracked by Billboard and its data partners, including Nielsen Music and Next Big Sound. The awards are based on the chart period of March 23, 2018 through March 7, 2019. Since 1940, the Billboard charts have been the go-to guide for ranking the popularity of artists, songs and albums, and are the ultimate measure of success in music.
