Taylor Swift goes #1 in the UK and breaks The Beatles' 54-year-old record

[Spicechinodiva]

Taylor Swift rewrites UK Official Chart history this week as her rerecorded album Fearless (Taylor’s Version) lands at Number 1 on the Official Albums Chart, surpassing a long-held chart record by The Beatles.

The Official Charts Company can confirm that by scoring her third chart-topping album in the space of just 259 days (following Folkore on July 31 and Evermore on December 18), Taylor sets a new all-time record for the fastest accumulation of three Number 1 albums ever.

The record was previously held by The Beatles for 54 years – the band notched up a trio of chart-toppers in 364 days between 1965-1966, with Help!, Rubber Soul, and Revolver.

Fearless (Taylor’s Version) racks up just over 21,000 chart sales to become the star’s seventh UK Number 1 album, and outperforms the Number 5 peak of the original, released in 2008.

The entry now places Taylor third among female artists with the most chart-topping albums, behind Madonna (12) and Kylie Minogue (8).

Congrats to Taylor swift, her version of fearless debuts at #1 in the UK, outdoing Scooter Braun's version peak of #5. 

 

While breaking a long decades record by the Beatles. 

 

Has anybody check on Scooter today, I sure hope he's okay, cos she's really winning while a majority of his clients aren't doing so good themselves.

[DearBritney00]

She could beat her own record with 1989 (TV) and beat Kylie with her re-recordings this year.

I’m glad that her re-release is doing so well. Wasn’t sure it it would be such a hit! But she’s doing it, literally again!

Britney could’ve done that, but the UK remains tasteless

Who was number one and how many units did they have?

[Isla]

Now we just need self-titled and Speak Now to go to number 1 and then Taylor would have had a number 1 with each of her albums! 

Okay yeah I know some of these albums are the originals owned by Scooter....

No idea for Glory but for Oops!... (which was also #2), it was a compilation album that outsold.
