Lady Gaga's electrifying performance at Coachella 2025 has sparked a resurgence of her iconic music on global charts. The performance, held in April 2025, led to a significant boost in streams and sales, making a notable impact on Billboard charts.
"Bad Romance," a defining hit from her early career, has finally made its debut on Billboard's global rankings this week. The song entered the Billboard Global 200 at No. 186 and the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart at No. 172.
Gaga now boasts 17 tracks on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart and 18 on the Billboard Global 200. In addition to the debut of "Bad Romance," other popular tracks like "Abracadabra" and "Poker Face" are also gaining momentum on both charts. Her collaboration with Bruno Mars, "Die With a Smile," continues to dominate at No. 1 on both lists.
Billboard launched its global rankings several years after "Bad Romance" initially peaked, explaining its delayed appearance. The song's renewed popularity underscores the powerful influence of Gaga's Coachella performance on her extensive discography's global appeal.
