One trillion dollars in stock market value. That's what just the 27 CEOs on The Fortune Most Powerful Women list control. But there are 24 more women on our 18th annual list—including a special bonus pick whose name you know already. Read on to see who made it—and who didn't

51. Taylor Swift, 25, Singer; Music and Technology Industry Disrupter, -
It’s rare these days that a pop star becomes known for more than diva behavior. But Taylor Swift is famous for her industry clout—which is why we’re giving her a bonus spot on the MPW list. Sure, she rocked it in her day job with 1989, the fastest-selling album of the past decade, with four No. 1 hits and one of the largest-grossing North American tours this year. But by refusing to put her music on Spotify and then, in June, forcing Apple Music to change the way it compensated musicians during its trial period, she’s shifted the power dynamic back toward the artists. She’s also become an increasingly vocal advocate for female empowerment. Go, Team Taylor!
She is the only artist between CEOs from huge companies like General Motors, IBM, PepsiCo, etc.
I think they are talking about her career in general.
WANEGBT, SIO, BS and BB.
Don't be silly. It's very clear that they were implying 1989. NOT her career.

They should have specified with "Pop radio." No one thinks of that chart. It's obvious that the Hot 100 is the go to.
Regardless, don't hide behind other people's post after getting clocked.
