Swift is now the only artist ever to hold the top 14 spots on the Hot 100 chart, which is released weekly and ranks songs based on streaming, radio airplay and sales data.
“Fortnight,” the No. 1 song this week, had more than 76 million streams, 31.1 million audience impressions from radio airplay and sold 19,000 copies in the U.S. from when the song debuted on April 19 through April 25, according to data from Luminate.
Every song from Swift’s 31-song album is on the chart this week, and her 2019 song “Cruel Summer” is charting, as well, meaning she charted the most songs ever in a single week by a woman, Billboard reported.

In taking the top 14 songs, Swift again broke a record she previously held. When she released “Midnights” in 2022, she became the only artist ever to hold the top 10 spots of the Hot 10, led by “Anti-Hero.”
12. That’s how many Hot 100 No. 1 songs Swift has had now that “Fortnight” took the top spot this week, Billboard reported.
Swift had a good week on the Billboard Top 200, too. Billboard announced Sunday that Swift’s “Tortured Poets” would debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart Monday, marking Swift’s 14th album to debut at No. 1. Since she released “Fearless” in 2008, every album—including re-records—has debuted at the top spot.
Swift released “The Tortured Poets Department” on April 19 after two months of anticipation following the album’s announcement at the Grammys in February. The album, which was actually a double album with 15 more songs being released at 2 a.m. on April 19, was met with mixed reviews, but broke countless records. In its first week, “The Tortured Poets Department” became the first album on Spotify to have more than 1 billion streams, the most-sold vinyl album in one week and more. When releasing the album, Swift said she had “written so much tortured poetry in the past 2 years and wanted to share it all” with fans, and that the works reflect “events, opinions and sentiments from fleeting and fatalistic moment in time”—but one that is now over.
We estimate Swift to be worth about $1.1 billion as of Monday. The pop star became a billionaire last October, in large part due to her Eras Tour, which was the first tour in history to gross $1 billion.
