Billboard has officially ranked Taylor Swift at number 1 for their “Top artists of the 21st century.”

This is SUCH great news! Taylor Swift has been making music for over two decades. Between her 11 albums, sold out arenas with The Eras Tour, and more, this is MUCH deserved. According to Billboard, the ranking is based on performance on the Hot 100 and Billboard 200 charts so far this century.

In case we all forgot, Taylor Swift making history at the Billboard Music Awards becoming the artist who has won the most awards ever!

I’m so glad Taylor won this! I’m still not over the fact Billboard has apologized to Taylor after the “Greatest Pop Stars of the 21st Century,” ranking. I truly believe Taylor should’ve been ranked at number 1 instead of number 2...sorry Beyonce!

Here’s the top 10 on Billboard’s Top Artists of the 21st Century chart.
