Lady Gaga, Beyonce and Susan Boyle.
Gaga owned that year. Beyonce dominated the Grammys and had a huge impact with Single Ladies. Susan Boyle went viral, and ended up with the best-selling album of the year in only 4 weeks.

Taylor sold more albums in the US than Boyle and was only a few thousand copies behind her in WW sales.
But, unlike Susan, Taylor also had awards/critical acclaim and single success behind her name. YBWM was HUGE as was her WW Tour.

Plus, Taylor Swift's success, while impressive, was very local and she didn't have a deep impact. Her most memorable moment is probably that Kanye thing.

Again, her album sold more than The Fame/Monster that year, even WW. How is that local?
