Taylor Swift Is the First Living Artist to Simultaneously Have 7 Albums in the Billboard 200's Top 40
Only Whitney Houston has previously achieved this but after her death.
Taylor Swift‘s success has no limits. She has become the first-ever living artist to simultaneously chart seven albums in the top 40 of the Billboard 200 chart.
The only other artist to reach this achievement was Whitney Houston in March 2012 — one month after her death.
During Swift’s career, she’s put out a total of 10 albums, excluding the two she re-recorded in efforts of owning her music catalog. Both re-recorded LPs — Red (Taylor’s Version) and Fearless (Taylor’s Version) — are featured on the Billboard 200 chart, though only the former is in the top 40.
While Swift has a total of seven albums in the top 40, she has two more albums charting further – Fearless (Taylor’s Version) at No. 52, and Speak Now, at No. 69.
In February, she became the fifth act to have 10 albums charting on the Billboard 200 at the same time.
