Despacito hangs 10 weeks at the top of U.S. charts as Ed Sheeran ties top five record

Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee have scored a 10th week at the top of the U.S. singles chart with their summer smash Despacito.

The track, featuring Justin Bieber, becomes the 35th hit to top the Billboard Hot 100 for at least 10 weeks, joining Ed Sheeran’s Shape of You, which spent 12 weeks at number one earlier this year (17).

The Brit’s track has just tied a new record for the longest spell in the top five with one hit.
