Taylor Swift knows how to break some astonishing records and her latest jaw-dropping accomplishment is no exception.

Newsweek has contacted Spotify by email to confirm the record.
Swift, 34, has had a phenomenal year of breaking records ever since she started her The Eras World Tour in March 2023.
It became the highest-grossing live music tour in history, long before it hit the halfway point of its scheduled 152 shows.
Swift’s concert movie of the tour broke box office records by earning $92 million in its first weekend and becoming the highest-grossing domestic concert film of all time just on those opening days.
It also made $26 million on the first day of advanced ticket sales, making much more than the previous record holder, Avengers: Endgame at $16 million.
She was even praised by AMC Theaters CEO Adam Aron, who credited Swift and Beyoncé with “literally” saving the theater chain’s financial fortunes. The two women exclusively screened their concert films at AMC in late 2023. Beyoncé’s highlighted her Renaissance world tour.
“Despite a diminished box office overall, in the fourth quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago, AMC’s revenue grew by 11.5 percent and AMC’s adjusted EBITDA almost tripled. Literally, all of that increase… is attributable to our having shown these two movies in our theaters in the U.S. and internationally,” Aron said during AMC Entertainment’s quarterly earning call in February.
“These two movies added greatly to movie theater ticket sales across our entire industry, as just these two films represented fully one-ninth of the complete fourth quarter domestic industry-wide box office.”

Tom cruise finally speak addressing public criticism on why he missed out on his daughter graduation for Swift concert,Suri is not my…. See more
Tom Cruise has recently made headlines for a major decision regarding his relationship with his daughter, Suri Cruise. The 18-year-old, who graduated from LaGuardia High School on June 21, did so without her father in attendance. Instead, Cruise chose to attend Taylor Swift’s Eras concert in London, raising questions about his priorities and his bond with his daughter.
Suri Cruise, who is said to have changed her last name to Noelle, a nod to her mother Katie Holmes, celebrated this significant milestone with her mother present. Katie Holmes was there to support and celebrate her daughter, but the absence of Tom Cruise did not go unnoticed. According to In Touch Weekly, this snub has led to further speculation about Cruise’s relationship with Suri.
An insider revealed that Cruise’s decision to skip Suri’s graduation in favor of attending Taylor Swift’s concert is indicative of his strained relationship with his daughter. “He was trading friendship bracelets with superfans and dancing to ‘Shake It Off’ in a crowd filled with young ladies who were around his daughter’s age,” the source said. This behavior, contrasted with his absence from Suri’s important day, has led some to believe that Cruise is living a “double life.”
The insider further elaborated that Cruise has not seen Suri for the past 11 years, stating, “the truth is for the last 11 years, Tom has chosen not to see Suri.” This estrangement appears to be a deliberate decision on Cruise’s part. Despite his absence from Suri’s life, Cruise maintains a close relationship with his other children, Bella and Connor, whom he adopted during his marriage to Nicole Kidman.
Both Bella and Connor are followers of Scientology, which has been a significant aspect of Cruise’s life. An expert on Tom Cruise’s faith, Tony Ortega, explained that Cruise’s primary loyalty is to Scientology and its leader, David Miscavige. Ortega noted, “He has proven over and over again that his No. 1 loyalty is to [his religion] and David Miscavige.”
The influence of Scientology on Cruise’s relationships has been a point of discussion for years. Ortega suggested that Suri’s exclusion from Cruise’s life might be beneficial for her. “It became more and more obvious Tom had completely cut Suri out of his life. And frankly, Suri may be better off for it,” he added.
Cruise’s prioritization of his faith and its community over his daughter has led to a complete estrangement. The choice to attend a concert over his daughter’s graduation is a public display of this ongoing separation. For Suri, who has grown up largely under the care of her mother, this might mean a life free from the complexities of her father’s religious affiliations.

Brad Pitt surprised his former wife Jennifer Aniston with a lavish $79 million mansion as a gift for… See more
In a twist that has caught everyone off guard, Brad Pitt, the Hollywood heartthrob, apparently made a remarkable move in honor of his ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston. This unexpected gesture left people staggered and sparked a flurry of speculation among fans and the media alike. According to reports of MIRROR, Pitt had purchased the former marital home the couple shared during their marriage, valued at a staggering $79 million, with the intention of gifting it to Aniston.
The luxurious Beverly Hills property, where Pitt and Aniston resided from 2000 to 2005, had been on the market following their divorce. Sources reveal that Aniston had found it challenging to part ways with the house, describing it as one of her biggest regrets not buying her ex-husband Pitt out at the time of their separation.
This four-bedroom property, adorned with marble kitchen floors, a swimming pool, a pub room with elegant wooden flooring, and a tennis court, served as a tangible representation of the dreams the once dearly in love with each other couple shared during their years together. Reportedly, Pitt and Aniston had initially acquired the residence and embarked on a three-year renovation journey before ultimately listing and selling the estate post-announcement of their split. The decision to part with the beloved home was reportedly a source of deep emotional turmoil for Aniston.
“When Brad and Jen split, she said losing their dream home worsened the heartache of their divorce, and it was one of her biggest regrets not buying Brad out,” a source close to the situation disclosed. Pitt, known for his grand gestures, allegedly purchased the property with the specific aim of surprising Aniston on her birthday. Acknowledging the FRIENDS star’s sentimental connection to the house, he reportedly intended to make a gesture that went above and beyond, aiming to exceed even her most extravagant dreams.
Brad wants to make a gesture to Jen that would go beyond her wildest dreams, so when their old home came up for sale, he knew that would be the purchase to make all her dreams come true,” the insider had revealed. The Break Up actor has, over the years, expressed a sentimental longing for their former home. Even after the divorce, Pitt reportedly missed the house and struggled to leave it behind.
Sources suggest that Aniston herself, during reunions with Pitt, often referred to the Beverly Hills estate, highlighting how her current Bel Air mansion failed to match up to the memories of their shared home. This unexpected birthday gift from Brad Pitt ignited speculation about the nature of their current relationship. As fans are eager to know their relationship status, one thing is for certain—Brad Pitt has set the bar high when it comes to amicable post-divorce relationships in showbiz.
