Saw this fact.....
...Jess Glynne, the British female solo artist with the most Number 1 singles in Official Chart history, is ready to return....
Then thought of other Brits and it could be correct ....

It's sort of true and yes surprising. Yes she is a solo artist but most of her #1s are as a guest artist with another act EG Clean Bandit. So she matches Adele, Sandie Shaw and Jessie J with three number 1 singles as lead artist.
And both beat Lulu, Cilla Black, Shirley Bassey, Kate Bush and Mel C who only have 2. Dusty Springfield only had one which is a tragedy. Amy MacDonald has none
We don't do solo female artists very well do we.
