The 33-year-old made history by becoming the first woman to appear twice on Time’s Person of the Year cover.
“Swift’s accomplishments as an artist—culturally, critically, and commercially—are so legion that to recount them seems almost beside the point,” the magazine shared. “As a pop star, she sits in rarefied company, alongside Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and Madonna.”
How Taylor Swift met Benjamin Button
Swift met Benjamin on the set of her “ME!” music video. According to People Magazine, the entertainer mentioned in an Instagram Live with Panic! at the Disco’s lead vocalist Brendon Urie that Benjamin was “a cute kitten who didn’t have a home.” Continuing, Swift shared, “He literally looked at me like, ‘Adopt me please.’ And I was like, ‘Okay I’m going to do that.’”
The adorable feline is named after Brad Pitt’s character in the film “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.” Apart from Benjamin, the pop star has two other cats, Olivia Benson and Meredith Grey, both named after her favorite TV characters.
