Pink Venom overtook Taylor Swift’s 2020 hit Cardigan which boasts 7.742 million streams, to achieve the biggest Spotify debut of any female artist’s song released so far this decade.
Naturally, BLINKs are super excited about this development and have taken to social media to share their reactions.

This is an incredible achievement and a true sign of a queen-like comeback since the Pink Venom singers were on a hiatus for around two years.
