In the US, the album debuted at number one on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart and number two on the Billboard 200 chart, marking Dua’s biggest sales week yet.

It was followed by her award-winning second album Future Nostalgia in 2020, with another set of worldwide hit singles like Levitating, Physical and Don’t Start Now.
