BiographyTaylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American singer-songwriter. Known for her autobiographical songwriting, artistic versatility, and cultural impact, Swift is one of the world's best-selling music artists, the highest-grossing music performer, and the richest female musician—the first billionaire with music as their main income.
Swift signed to Big Machine Records in 2005, debuting as a country singer with the albums Taylor Swift (2006) and Fearless (2008). The singles "Teardrops on My Guitar", "Love Story", and "You Belong with Me" found crossover success on country and pop radio formats. She incorporated rock on Speak Now (2010) and electronic on Red (2012), later re-calibrating her image from country to pop with the synth-pop set 1989 (2014); the ensuing media scrutiny inspired the hip-hop-imbued Reputation (2017). The albums contained the Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together", "Shake It Off", "Blank Space", "Bad Blood", and "Look What You Made Me Do".
Shifting to Republic Records in 2018, Swift released the electropop album Lover (2019) and contested with Big Machine for masters, re-recording four albums as Taylor's Version. She explored indie folk styles in the 2020 sister-albums Folklore and Evermore, and experimented with pop subgenres on Midnights (2022) and the double album The Tortured Poets Department (2024). In the U.S., a record seven Swift albums have sold one million copies first-week each. Throughout the 2020s, Swift garnered the number-one songs "Cardigan", "Willow", "All Too Well", "Anti-Hero", "Cruel Summer", "Is It Over Now?", and "Fortnight". She has undertaken six concert tours, including the Eras Tour (2023–2024), the highest-grossing tour of all time. Her films include Miss Americana (2020), All Too Well: The Short Film (2021), and The Eras Tour (2023)—the highest-grossing concert film.
Swift is a subject of extensive media coverage and has a global fanbase of Swifties. Publications such as Rolling Stone and Billboard have listed her amongst history's greatest artists; she is the only individual from the arts to have been named the Time Person of the Year (2023). Among other accolades, Swift has received 14 Grammy Awards (including a record four Album of the Year wins), a record five IFPI Global Recording Artist of the Year awards, a Primetime Emmy Award, and a string of Guinness World Records. She is the most-awarded artist of the American Music Awards (40), the Billboard Music Awards (49), and the MTV Video Music Awards (30).
