Taylor Swift is a four-time GRAMMY winner, Billboard’s 2011 Woman of the Year, and the reigning American Music Awards Artist of the Year, as well as both the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music’s Entertainer of the Year. Her Speak Now album has sold more than 5 million copies worldwide and she is the biggest-selling albums artist in any genre of music over the past 12 months.

She is the top-selling digital artist in music history, Billboard’s current Top 200 Albums Artist (all genres), Entertainment Weekly’s 2010 Entertainer of the Year, has had singles top both the Country and Pop radio charts, and last year sold more albums than any other artist in any genre of music. With 1,046,718 copies sold in the US in the first week of release, her Speak Now album scored SoundScan’s biggest single-week sales total since 2005 and is the biggest debuting country studio album in history. With the release of Speak Now, Taylor made history on the Billboard Hot 100, charting a record-breaking 11 songs from one album in a single week. Taylor, who writes all of her own songs, has career record sales now in excess of 20 million albums and 40 million song downloads. Her Fearless album was 2009’s top-selling CD, and she was the top-selling artist of 2008.

At the age of 20, she became the youngest artist in history to win the music industry’s highest honor, the GRAMMY Award for Album of the Year. Also at the 2010 GRAMMYs, she took home the awards for Country Album of the Year, Best Country Song, and Best Country Female Vocal Performance. Her 6x-Platinum FEARLESS album is the most awarded album in Country music history.

In 2009, she was named Artist of the Year at the American Music Awards (for the first time), and also became the youngest artist in the 43-year history of the Country Music Association to be awarded country music’s top prize when she took home the CMA Award for Entertainer of the Year. Taylor is one of only two female artists in history to twice win Country music’s highest honor. Taylor currently holds the Billboard all-genre records for the longest charting album of this century, for most Top 20 debuts in a calendar year, and for the largest overall airplay audience for a country-based act.
