Married Ladies Rule the Singles Charts

With newlywed Miranda Lambert's 'Heart Like Mine' succeeding Sara Evans' 'A Little Bit Stronger' at the No. 1 spot on Billboard's country singles chart this week, the ladies mark the first time two solo female singers have consecutively reached the top spot since November 2008.

The last time this rare feat occurred was when Carrie Underwood enjoyed two weeks at No. 1 with 'Just a Dream,' followed immediately by Taylor Swift's 'Love Story,' which also spent two weeks at the top. Since then, the blond beauties have accumulated four additional No. 1 singles, with only Reba McEntire, Miranda and Sara breaking through the testosterone-packed chart to reach the top spot following them.
