Taylor Swift found herself back at the top of the Billboard Top Country Albums Chart with her RED (Taylor’s version) album. That also added to a record for being the female artist on the chart with the most weeks at number one with a combined total of 98, besting Shania Twain‘s 97-week run. Twain shared the news saying she was proud of Swift and that records are meant to be made and broken.
Let’s Go Girls!!!! Proud of you @taylorswift13. Historical records are meant to be made and then broken. The baton is meant to be passed on to new generations. Unstoppable young female country artists are 🔥 inspite of the hurdles ✊ #trailblazers https://t.co/SZORYzSay6

While Swift passed that record Shania is still the top-selling female country artist of all time though with more than 90 million albums sold worldwide and her album Come On Over is the best-selling album in Soundscan history by a female artist in any genre with an incredible 40 million units sold worldwide. Wow!
