Taylor Swift is Breaking More Records!!!

As if selling more than a MILLION copies of her album Speak Now in it’s opening week isn’t enough, EW.com is reporting Taylor Swift has broken another record. Taylor currently holds 11 spots on the Billboard Hot 100 chart…All songs off of Speak Now.

The only other artists to have that many songs on the chart simotaneiously is American Idol winner David Cook and The Beatles. The difference is, David’s songs were performances from American Idol…so he didn’t write them and they didn’t come off an album. The Beatles hits were from several different projects.

What does this mean exactly?? Taylor Swift is the FIRST artist in HISTORY to have 11 singles on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart from the same album…Oh yeah…and she wrote them all.

You can read the full story here.

Gary, Joe Don, Jay and Faith will be joining Beyonce, the Jonas Brothers, Rosie O’Donnell, Tony Bennett, Harry Connick Jr and David Cook for this years program.  (Thank goodness – no Miley Cyrus)
