Reneé Rapp Earns Her First U.K. No. 1 Album With ‘Bite Me’

Reneé Rapp earned her first U.K. No. 1 LP with sophomore collection Bite Me on Friday (Aug. 8). 

The pop star and Mean Girl actress first hit the Official Albums Chart in 2023 with Snow Angel, which peaked at No. 7.

Later this year, she’ll embark on the Bite Me Tour with a European leg slated for 2026. Rapp will arrive in the U.K. for a pair of shows in March, headlining Manchester’s AO Arena on March 18, and London’s OVO Arena Wembley the following night.

As Oasis’ Live ‘25 reunion tour rolls into Edinburgh, Scotland, on Friday evening, the band occupies two spots in the top five, and three overall in the top 10. 2010’s singles compilation Time Flies… 1994-2009 finishes at No. 2, 1995’s (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? closes the week at No. 3 and 1994 debut Definitely Maybe lands at No. 6.

The band will play three shows at the Scottish capital’s Murrayfield Stadium in the coming days (Aug. 8, 9, 12). Earlier this week the man who died at one of the Wembley Stadium concerts was named, with fans raising money for his family in a GoFundMe appeal. The Gallagher brothers said in a statement they were “shocked and saddened” by the news.

Alex Warren’s You’ll Be Alright, Kid stays strong as a non-mover at No. 4. The California-born singer-songwriter had a record-breaking streak at the summit of the Official Singles Chart earlier this year, as hit single “Ordinary” ruled for 13 weeks. 

Fleetwood Mac’s 50 Years – Don’t Stop completes the top five (No. 5) and comes hot on the heels of the golden jubilee anniversary of the band’s 1975 self-titled LP, its first featuring vocalists Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks.
