Swift Matches Rihanna’s Pop Airplay Milestone

With this latest entry, Swift reaches a career milestone on Pop Airplay, marking her 50th placement on the chart—a feat that ties her with Rihanna for one of the highest career totals in the category.

From “Teardrops on My Guitar” to Today

Swift’s journey on Pop Airplay began nearly two decades ago with “Teardrops on My Guitar” in 2007. Originally a country star with a growing crossover appeal, Swift’s early pop-infused country tracks laid the foundation for her enduring radio success. “Teardrops on My Guitar” peaked at No. 7, kickstarting a historic trajectory that has now culminated in her record-breaking chart presence.

Cross-Chart Impact of “Elizabeth Taylor”

Beyond Pop Airplay, “Elizabeth Taylor” also debuts at No. 27 on the Adult Contemporary chart, boosting Swift’s total hits on that tally to 52. Meanwhile, the single returns to the Adult Pop Airplay chart, where it climbs to a new high of No. 23 following its official promotion to radio.

The track also reenters the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 74, reflecting its continued consumption through streaming and digital sales after initially debuting at No. 3 when The Life of a Showgirl dominated multiple Billboard rosters.

With “Elizabeth Taylor,” Taylor Swift cements her status as one of the most successful and enduring radio artists of her generation, continuing a streak of hits that spans nearly 20 years and multiple genres.
