Swift’s current radio hit “Cruel Summer” which originally appeared on the album “Lover” in 2019 is currently Number 4 and peaked at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart.
Swift released her third re-recorded album ‘Speak Now’ (Taylor’s Version) on July 7. Apart from debuting at #1 on the Billboard 200, the album also made Swift the first female artist to have 4 albums simultaneously inside the top 10 on Billboard’s album chart. This also makes her the 3rd artist in history to ever do so.
Toronto’s very own The Weeknd has the honour of having the most monthly listeners with 110 Million, Swift is #2 with just over 100 Million followed by Bad Bunny at #3 with 79 Million, Dua Lipa and Ed Sheeran both with over 77 Million monthly listeners.
Ed Sheeran has the most followers with 114.50 Million, Ariana Grande 93.11, Arijit Singh 87.08, Billie Eilish 85.12 and Taylor Swift 83.87
Taylor initially snubbed Toronto and Canadian concert dates but will finally make her make to the Great White North for 6 shows at Rogers Centre in Toronto on November 14, 15, 16, 21, 22 and 23 in 2024.
