Taylor Swift grabbing wigs from Hot 100 legends
Quote:
Winning (for the second time) the Country Music Association's coveted Entertainer of the Year prize (Nov. 9)? Check.
Topping Country Songs for a fifth time, with "Sparks Fly"? Check.
Preparing to accept the 2011 Woman of the Year award at Billboard's annual Women in Music event (Dec. 2)? Check.
Any other feats that Taylor Swift needed to cross off her to-do list?
Oh, right. Passing Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross, Mary J. Blige, Whitney Houston and Janet Jackson for a key Billboard Hot 100 achievement.
Done.
Swift sends three songs onto the Hot 100 this week: "If This Was a Movie" (No. 10), "Ours," her next country radio single (No. 13), and "Superman" (No. 26). The tracks made their digital retail debuts Nov. 8 after previously being available only on the deluxe CD version of her "Speak Now" album at Target stores.
With the bows, Swift moves past five legendary performers to claim the seventh-most Hot 100 appearances among women.
Here is an updated count of the women with the most charted titles, and their career chart spans, in the Hot 100's 53-year history:
73, Aretha Franklin, 1961-98
56, Dionne Warwick, 1962-98
55, Madonna, 1983-2009
53, Connie Francis, 1958-69
48, Brenda Lee, 1959-73
44, Mariah Carey, 1990-2011
42, Taylor Swift, 2006-11
41, Barbra Streisand, 1964-97
40, Diana Ross, 1970-86
39, Mary J. Blige, 1992-2010
39, Whitney Houston, 1984-2009
39, Janet Jackson, 1982-2008

The Queen! She's closer to becoming a legend than most of these other pop girls.

She'll snatch all of these weaves with her next album release next fall!
That shall put her at #2, behind Queen Aretha Franklin.
Well, unless Madonna and Mariah chart any songs within the next year
And Mary J Blige could pass her depending on how many songs she charts with her album release next week

I think they'll be counted towards the original songs, the way that Haunted acoustic counted towards the original Haunted.
However, her Drops of Jupiter, Bette Davis Eyes and I Want You Back covers would definitely each count if they charted
