He's French, he's a DJ, has worked with countless other stars and now David Guetta has another notch on his belt, and that's hitting two billion streams on Spotify.

He's also the most followed artist of the streaming service with more than 6.8m followers.

He's not the first, Eminem and Ed Sheeran have also reached that mark, but he's the first EDM artist to get that accolade.

"I want to thank you so much for helping me reach this incredible milestone."

Guetta also has more than 15 million dedicated worldwide fans listening to his music on the service each month.

His current track, Hey Mama ft. Nicki Minaj and Afrojack has had 95 million streams globally already, according to the Official Charts Company, external.

His 2014 album, Listen, has helped him along the path for this historical benchmark, with the track Bad contributing 200 million plays.

But he's a busy man, as he made us more than aware at Radio 1's Big Weekend in Norwich, when, as soon as he got off stage, he got in a car to his private jet back to the States.

He told us he was going to make music, or he'd be "in trouble".

The man who never seems to rest, also revealed on Twitter that he's working on the anthem for the official UEFA Euro 2016 tournament. , external

"Secrets out then. I'm the musical ambassador for UEFA Euro 2016," he tweeted.
