Taylor Swift continues to make history.
For, she is ready to add another page to the history books as she is set to receive the global icon award at the 2021 Brit Awards on May 11.
More details below…
With her win, the ‘Willow’ singer will become the first female artist and the first non-English artist to receive the award, which the Brits characterize as their highest accolade.
The previous winners of the award include: Elton John, David Bowie, and Robbie Williams.
The award is given “in recognition of her immense impact on music across the world and incredible repertoire and achievements to date.”
Swift has set nearly as many records in the UK as she has the US. She is the only female artist in the 21st century to amass seven #1 studio albums on the Official U.K. Albums chart.
Additionally, The Official Charts Company also reports that Swift is the UK’s top-selling artist of 2021 to date. She has garnered 17 top 10 hits on the Official UK Singles chart and has sold 114 million albums globally.
She is also nominated for international female solo artist. Swift will go up against Ariana Grande, Cardi B, Billie Eilish, and Miley Cyrus in the category.
Congrats to her. Madonna has 12 and Kylie Minogue has 8 Number 1 Albums in the U.K . Congrats to her being the only one though from 21st with 7 Number 1’s.
Yaaaaaas Taylor my Queen! 🔥
She is an icon and she has the chart stats to prove it.
Damn, back in 2008, who would have thought that the girl who sings you belong with me would be ruling the industry in 2021.
Beyoncé could never. She is the new Normani – all tacky photo shoots and no album because it will flop.
Four #1 albums in less than 10 months. All actual hits, not some drive-by #1 that charts and disappears.
No one else is doing these numbers.
BeyCOVAIDS, can’t even touch her.
💯🔥
Really? Four Albums it’s actually three albums. Lover was released August 23rd 2019. The other three Folklore- July 24th 2020 , Evermore – December 11th 2020 and Fearless (Taylor’s Version) – April 9th 2021. Good for her though not my cup of tea lol.
Yassss Queen Taylor!!!
You and Lizzo are the bad bishessss😍
Can’t wait for the Brit Awards. Dua and the Weeknd’s performance. Dua and Doja hit new peaks on Billboard Hot 100, plus Dua has two songs in the top ten on the U.S. ITunes. Dua and The Weeknd are predicted to Win at the Brits.
Pretty sure P!nk won this in 2019
P!NK WON this award in 2019. The name of the award was changed to The Global Icon Award. Taylor is an average singer, she can barely hit a proper note. She puts me to sleep💤💤💤. Her record label bought this award for her. She new she wasn’t going to WIN any other award so they had to include her and give her this award. Wow they are really brainwashed but to each their own.
