Camila Cabello Scores Her First UK Number 1 Single
'Havana' rises to the top of the charts this week...
It's safe to say that Camila Cabello's solo career has really taken off in 2017. Not only did her debut single 'Crying in the Club' go Gold in the UK but her Major Lazer, Quavo and Travis Scott collaboration, 'Know No Better', has dominated the radio too.
And now 'Havana' has become the 'Bad Things' hitmaker's first UK Number 1 single.
