Beyoncé's "Texas Hold 'Em" reaches No. 1 in both U.S. and U.K.

Beyoncé's much-discussed country single "Texas Hold 'Em" hit No. 1 in both the U.S. and U.K. this week, the first time she's had a simultaneous chart-topper on both sides of the Atlantic since 2003.

Beyoncé scored her ninth No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, Billboard announced Monday, one week after she became the first Black woman to top Billboard's Hot Country Songs. 

At the same time, "Texas Hold 'Em" became her first No. 1 hit in the U.K. since "Telephone," her 2010 duet with Lady Gaga — it was her sixth song to top the U.K. charts overall, Billboard reported.
