Taylor Swift Makes Chart History

Taylor Swift is now officially the only solo female act in the 44-year history of the Billboard Country Chart to score five Top 10 singles from a debut album. Her latest hit, 'Should've Said No,' hit the Top 10 this week. It's the fifth single from her triple-platinum selling debut album.

This isn't Swift's first time to make music history. Last year, at age 17, she became the youngest person to single-handedly write and sing a No. 1 country single, as 'Our Song' spent six weeks at No. 1. (Read the story behind that song, in Swift's own words, here.) The teen sensation is also the first female solo artist in country music history to write or co-write every song on a platinum-selling debut CD.

Swift is spending her summer on the road with Rascal Flatts. See a full list of tour dates here.
