Taylor Swift. World famous country singer, Band Hero and now she has shattered a record for the century. Wow.
This week Swift’s debut album, “Taylor Swift,” becomes the longest charting album of the century.
Her self-titled debut spends 157 weeks on the chart this week, taking the title for the album spending the most number of weeks inside Billboard’s Top 200 Albums. The previous record holder was Nickelback, whose 2005’s “All the Right Reasons” spent 156 weeks on the chart.
Her debut, which was released in October of 2006, has sold over 4 million copies to date. Also selling 4 million copies is her album, “Fearless,” which she re-released as a Platinum Edition last week, including the new single “Jump, Then Fall” and “Untouchable.”
She will also be joining the shortlist of stars like Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, and Janet Jackson to both host and perform on “Saturday Night Live.” Swift takes double duties on November 7th, becoming only the second female country artist to do so since Dolly Parton over twenty years ago.
And she’s only 19. I can’t imagine what’s next for the teen sensation. Whatever it is I am sure it’s going to be great!! Check out Taylor speaking about Band Hero below.
