Camila Cabello performs on stage during the MTV EMAs 2017 held at The SSE Arena, Wembley on Nov. 12, 2017 in London, England. 

At seven weeks, the song boasts the longest reign for a female artist in a lead role since Taylor Swift's "I Knew You Were Trouble" in 2013.

Camila Cabello's "Havana," featuring Young Thug, tops Billboard's Pop Songs radio airplay chart for a seventh week, marking the longest reign for a song by a solo female in a lead role in nearly five years.

The song boasts the longest such command since Taylor Swift's "I Knew You Were Trouble," which also led for seven weeks, beginning on the chart dated Feb. 2, 2013.

The last song by a lead female to rule Pop Songs for more than seven weeks? Rihanna's "We Found Love," featuring Calvin Harris: eight weeks in 2011-12.

The Pop Songs chart (the latest of which is dated Jan. 13) measures total weekly plays, as tabulated by Nielsen Music, among its reporting panel of 161 mainstream top 40 stations.

Three songs share the mark the longest rule among lead females: 11 weeks each for Natalie Imbruglia's "Torn" (1998), Donna Lewis "I Love You Always Forever" (1996) and Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men's "One Sweet Day" (1995-96).
