Troye Sivan goes global – new EP cracks the top 5 in the US and UK, hits number 1 in Australia
Openly gay singer Troye Smith has topped the album charts in his native Australia with his new EP
Wild.
The record has also reached number five in the UK and the US, as well as number three in New Zealand. Troye’s previous EP TRXYE also cracked the top five on the Billboard 200 last year.
Taking to Twitter following news of achievements, Sivan told fans: ‘You guys never cease to amaze me. You have no idea how much this means to me.’
The chart success follows glowing endorsements online from Taylor Swift and Sam Smith – the latter taking to Instagram to say Sivan’s voice ‘does things to my body.’
Wild previously hit number one on iTunes in 41 countries on pre-orders alone; meanwhile the song Wild has hit number one on Spotify’s global viral 50 chart.
