Lots of folks seem to be "Choosin' Texas" these days, and it's helped Ella Langley set a record.

The Alabama native's just become the first woman ever to top the all-genre Billboard 100, Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay charts at the same time.

It's only happened three times before with male artists: Shaboozey's "A Bar Song (Tipsy)," Post Malone's "I Had Some Help" featuring Morgan Wallen, and Morgan's "Last Night."

Co-written with Miranda Lambert, "Choosin' Texas" is the lead single from Ella's sophomore album, Dandelion, which comes out April 10.
