This Tuesday, Spotify reported through X (formerly known as Twitter) that the famous American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift became the first female artist to reach 100 million monthly listeners in the history of the music platform.
Spotify posted "Queen behavior" alongside a photograph of the pop star with which she shared the news, adding a new achievement to the artist's career. Swift sits just behind The Weeknd, who became the first artist to reach this milestone last February.

Taylor's other achievements
The famous American singer became a young sensation when she released her first album in 2006, and since then she has done nothing but grow artistically. In fact, Taylor Swift has become one of pop's most prominent artists in the last decade.
The artist is currently one of the 100 most influential people in the world and is so beloved in the United States that she would get 8% of the vote if she participated in the 2024 presidential election with former President Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
Taylor Swift has won 12 Grammy Awards, the last one for Best Music Video this year for the re-recording of "Red" and the music video for the song "All Too Well: The Short Film."
In July, the artist also became the first woman to have four albums in the top 10 of Billboard's 200 list, all at the same time. These are "Midnights," "Lover," "Folklore" and "Speak Now." The singer is also the first living artist to simultaneously have 11 albums in the top 200.
