About Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift has created music that for years has topped the charts at multiple formats, while creating groundbreaking tours, including 2019's Reputation Stadium Tour the highest-grossing US tour in history, and 2023's Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour, which broke records for single-day ticket sales.

In 2022, she followed multiple record setting albums, the Grammy-winning Album of the Year Folklore, it's sister album Evermore and two re-recorded albums, Fearless (Taylor's Version) and Red (Taylor's Version) with her pop masterpiece, Midnights, again shattering records only she had held prior.

Midnights became the top-selling album of 2022 in just a few weeks and its lead single "Anti-Hero" topped the Billboard Hot 100, making her the first artist to top the charts in three different decades and "Anti-Hero" is currently the most played song across iHeartRadio. Along with her artistic success, Taylor's generosity and philanthropy have inspired millions.

She's an advocate for women's rights and the LGBTQ+ community, using her music and platform to inspire young people to use their voting power.
