It’s been a rollercoaster few weeks for Taylor Swift, as she went from getting booed at the Super Bowl while cheering on Travis Kelce to completely flipping the script—because now, she just made history on the UK charts, by breaking a record.
And honestly, that’s a way bigger flex than a football game.
From Super Bowl Shade to Music Royalty
The Super Bowl may not have been a fairy-tale moment for Swift, especially with Kelce’s Chiefs taking an L and some rowdy fans making their feelings known. But guess what? She’s still out here breaking records. Swift has officially dethroned Madonna as the female artist with the most number-one albums in the UK. Her live album, Lover (Live From Paris), just hit the top spot, making it her 13th UK No. 1 album. Oh, and she’s now tied with Elvis Presley for the most chart-topping albums by an international artist. No big deal.
The Heart-Shaped Vinyl That Took Over
So how did she pull it off? Well, her recent heart-shaped vinyl release of Lover (Live From Paris) sent fans into a frenzy, selling a massive 47,000 copies in its debut week. This puts her right behind The Rolling Stones, Robbie Williams, and The Beatles in UK chart history. Just imagine being on the same level as The Beatles—yeah, that’s Swift for you.
The Internet Reacts: “We’re Watching History”
Of course, Swifties wasted no time celebrating Taylor Swift breaking this record. Social media exploded with reactions like:
- “Super Bowl boos? Who cares? Taylor’s out here making history.”
- “She’s basically a one-woman music empire at this point.”
- “Madonna had a good run, but Taylor’s playing a different game.”
What’s Next for Taylor?
Despite the noise around her personal life, Swift’s music remains untouchable. Whether she’s dominating streaming platforms, selling out stadiums, or casually breaking records, it’s clear that she’s in a league of her own. And let’s be real—this is probably just the beginning of another massive Swift era.
