1989 TV debuts with 176M first day streams on Spotify. She's truly on her league right now. She definitely will surpass Madonna to become the biggest female artist of all time. Anyway, it's weird that the album not available for purchase (digital download) in China. At the end, I predict that 1989 will be the second biggest album of this century, only behind Adele's 21.
In addition, she broke several person records, including besting her Midnights 1st day in Germany by over 800k, having the highest daily album debut in the UK, and she will probably snatch the biggest Spotify day for an artist ever, as the record is currently 228.2m
Who said it is? It is her worldwide media coverage. Even without America her sales will reach 100 million album units outside usa. Various presidents all over the world asked her to visit their countries too. You should question billboard. Instead of me. I posted the article and source. Should I trust clocking bell over billboard? Her celebrity is biggest since him according to multiple respected sources. Ask and question them!
Probably? It is done. She is moving 90 million streams without this rerecording. Even if we assume her original 1989 gets zero streams, she will still get it easily. All she needs is 53 million streams from her catalog. And her success in Germany increasing day by day. She is reaching markets where she didn't reach in starting decade of her career!
According to Bloomberg, Swift's net worth is officially 1,1 billion dollars and only income from music has been calculated. And what it will be in the future.
I already wrote in this thread in the summer that Swift has passed Madonna.

Generally, the album really outperformed SNTV in Europe and Latam by pretty big margins, and did not perform as well in Asia
She is billionaire from music , royalities, catalog and touring only. Movie is also adding numbers. As she doesn't have to pay studios. I wonder did they calculate her massive endorsement deals? She was paid 20 million plus for diet coke! And no one knows how much she has in stocks. Considering her family, she must have lot in that too. She is biggest female artist of all time in absolute terms. Selling 146 stadiums in single tour is just crazy
Biggest Spotify streams outside the US in a single day.
1989 (Taylor's Version) — 100M
Midnights — 97M
This would be bigger than any mpg album including USA. So much for calling her local!
Yeah, we certainly do. In one of Jake's recent posts she's called the most popular artist globally. Just less popular in Europe, but that's growing too.
Most of time he or she or whatever discredit her all the time. Indeed we see what we want to see
"Most of Taylor’s songs flop on charts outside few countries"
"she hasn’t had a breakthrough in Europe and Latin America except UK and Ireland"
about Asia "she fails in the biggest markets Japan and south Korea"
"Well see how her tour sells in Asia if she has the guts to come there (:"
...etc.
