If Taylor Swift
were to give a crash course on superstardom, even with the most meticulous notes, success would not be guaranteed. It is not because of questions about her stardom, but the conviction that no one can become Taylor Swift 2.0, even with identical resources and training. As the sole MVP of her starship, the pop royalty has established herself as a force to reckon with. However, with her latest Billboard achievement, Swift has leaped so high in the galaxy of stars that all that is left are her stardust, contemporaries, and a flood of congratulatory messages from fans who made her success a reality.
Despite no new album announcement this year, Taylor Swift punched a touchdown on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart with a 2023 set. According to the outlet’s recent report, the Eras Tour singer secured
her 15th ticket following her reentry to the chart with ‘Lover: Live From Paris.’
This achievement comes hot on the heels of the record’s reissue on vinyl, marking Swift’s 15th No. 1 on Billboard’s 33-year-old list.

Taylor Swift fans lose their calm as the Billboard queen sits on the throne
Debates and discussions have been rampant about Taylor Swift’s next era despite the lack of concrete insights. Especially since the Eras Tour’s curtain call left fans with an unfulfillable void, Swifties have enjoyed every field day full of Easter eggs. Although it may not have had answers to the questions they have been praying for, Swift’s latest Billboard success still had them dancing to her beats on cloud nine.
