Taylor Swift Sets Women’s Record For Most Number One Albums

Following the release of “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version),” Taylor Swift now has more number one albums than any other female artist in history, according to Billboard.

The album debuted at the top of the Billboard charts, earning the pop queen’s 12th number one album, surpassing Barbra Streisand’s record.

For male musicians, Jay-Z and the Beatles each have over a dozen number one albums, though Billboard adds that its album ranking system has evolved over the years to include anthologies.

Swift, 33, is also the first living artist in over 60 years to have four albums in the top ten at the same time, according to the organization.

They include “Midnights,” “Lover” and “Folklore.”

Billboard said Swift had also become the first living artist to have 11 albums in the top 200 simultaneously.

Swift’s record-breaking feats come as she performs many of her best hits on the fan-frenzied “Eras” tour.

The 106-date stadium concert series kicked off in March and is within striking distance of becoming the first billion-dollar tour.

“Speak Now” was originally released in 2010. Swift has vowed to re-record her first six albums so she can control their rights — a process she was contractually allowed to begin in November 2020.

She has also re-recorded “Fearless” and “Red.”

Last October, Swift became the first artist ever to simultaneously nab all 10 spots on the top US song chart after the release of her tenth studio album “Midnights.”
