Taylor Swift has made history on the Billboard 200. Again.

And it’s all thanks to the continued reign of her blockbuster album, ‘The Life of a Showgirl.’

Full story below…

The Pop titan has officially become the FIRST solo artist in history to spend 100 total weeks at #1 on the coveted album chart.

In doing so, she joins The Beatles as the only acts ever to achieve the colossal feat.

‘The Life of a Showgirl’ secures a 14th nonconsecutive week at #1 on the Billboard 200 (dated October 17).

The LP earned another 93,000 equivalent album units in the latest tracking frame, according to Luminate.

Here’s how its latest winning week breaks down:

• Billboard 200 Position: #1
• Total Units: 93,000
• Pure Album Sales: 27,000
• Streaming Equivalent Units: 65,000
• On-Demand Streams: 66.64 million

That brings Swift’s career total to a staggering 100 weeks at #1 across 15 chart-topping albums.

Here’s how the all-time leaderboard now looks:

• #1. The Beatles: 132 weeks
• #2. Taylor Swift: 100 weeks
• #3. Elvis Presley: 67 weeks

Notably, Swift is the first soloist to cross the century mark in the nearly 70-year history of the weekly chart.

Her biggest contributor remains ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ with 17 weeks at #1, followed by ‘Showgirl’ with 14.

As reported, the latter returned to the summit last week following the arrival of its expanded ‘Encore’ edition, which added four new songs, including the Hot 100 chart-topper ‘Patient Zero.’

Adding another twist to this week’s chart, The Beatles’ ‘Rubber Soul’ returns at #4, placing the two history-making acts in the top five simultaneously.

Almost two decades into her recording career, Swift continues to rewrite the record books. And with her latest album still commanding the charts, that 100-week tally could climb even higher.
