Interscope RecordsThe soundtrack for A Star Is Born could score a second week at #1 on the Billboard album chart, according to sales projections.

The album, featuring Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper, could sell 125,000 units by the end of this week, Billboard reports, enough to keep it in the #1 spot.  It debuted on top of the chart last week with first-week sales of 231,000 units.

If the soundtrack remains on top, it’ll be Gaga’s first album to score more than one week at #1 since Born This Way, which did it back in 2011.  Overall, the soundtrack is Gaga’s fifth #1 album.

Meanwhile, Gaga is #1 and Cooper is #3 on Billboard‘s Artist 100 chart, which measures music sales, radio airplay, streaming and social media interaction to rank artists’ popularity. 

And finally, the duo is currently #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 with their A Star Is Born duet, “Shallow.”
