Taylor Swift marked a milestone as she celebrated her 14th number-one single on the music charts this week.
The 36-year-old superstar took to Instagram to also announce that it had been over a decade since she had two singles from the same album reach the top of the charts.
After she released her 12th studio album The Life of a Showgirl last October, Swift is now tied for third place with Rihanna with 14 number-one singles.
The Beatles hold the record for the most number-one singles of all time on the Billboard Hot 100 list with 20, closely followed by Mariah Carey in second place with 19.
This comes after Swift and her fiancé Travis Kelce’s rumored summer wedding date was revealed.
That was promptly followed by her ex-boyfriend Matty Healy and his fiancée reportedly setting their July wedding date in the weeks right after Swift’s rumored nuptials.

She also shared snippets from behind the scenes of making her Opalite music video, in which she was seen wearing a brown wig and an 80s-inspired, Jazzercise-style outfit.
The star-studded video featured Domhnall Gleeson, Greta Lee, Jodie Turner-Smith, Lewis Capaldi and Cillian Murphy after they all sat down for an episode of The Graham Norton Show last year.

‘I can’t even sum up my excitement and I’m so blown away by the love you’ve shown this song and video.
‘To put this into perspective… This is actually the first time I’ve had two Hot 100 #1s off of one album since my album 1989 came out in 2014, nearly twelve years ago!’
The last time she had multiple songs from the same album achieve the same feat was in 2014; three singles from her fifth studio album — Shake It Off, Blank Space and Bad Blood featuring Kendrick Lamar — all topped the charts.
She continued: ‘I know that’s a lot of numbers but it all adds up to me being so thankful to the fans who helped make this happen by welcoming this song into your lives with open arms.
‘Seriously bouncing off the walls about this!! Just wanted to say THANK YOU, might go buy a giant pretzel at the mall to celebrate, iykyk.’
She gushed about being ‘so thankful’ to her fans as she included her self-recorded videos in the studio
In the clips, she shared a sneak peek of how she and her producers came up with the beat, the melody and the lyrics for the song
One clip showed her practicing choreography for her Opalite music video, which featured the A-list stars she was joined by on The Graham Norton Show in October 2025
She also recorded and shared clips of the music producers and a special guest in the studio with them while working on her 12th studio album The Life of a Showgirl
The superstar concluded with emojis of a pretzel, a cactus and a rock as she referenced imagery from her Opalite music video.
The 14-time Grammy winner previously shared the inspiration behind her latest music video in another social media post.
Swift explained she wrote and directed the project after the inspiration ‘crash landed into my imagination’ when she appeared on Norton’s talk show alongside her fellow stars in October 2025.
‘I remember thinking I got ridiculously lucky with the group I was paired with,’ she shared as she praised the fellow talk show guests as people she has ‘admired from afar.’
