Justin Bieber recently marked a historic first on the British singles charts as he occupied the entire top three of the chart.

The 21-year-old singer's 'Love Yourself' logged a fifth week at number one, followed by 'Sorry' at number two and 'What Do You Mean' at three, reports News24.com.

The Official Charts Company said it's the first time an artist has ever achieved the feat in the history of the official charts, having previously hit the incredibly rare milestone of holding spots one and two with 'Love Yourself' and 'Sorry.'

The last artist to have three singles in the top five was Beatles legend John Lennon in 1981 with 'Imagine,' 'Happy Xmas' (War Is Over) and (Just Like) 'Starting Over' following his assassination.
