It's very possible because there's no signs of Taylor slowing down.   "Lavender Haze" is likely to be the next official single and it's a very radio-friendly/catchy song.  Then whatever songs she decides to promote for the Speak Now and 1989 re-records during release week will also have a chance to go to #1, so that's three songs right now for 2023.   So that will bring her total to 12, moving ahead of Janet and Whitney.  

Then 2024 will probably be the re-records of reputation and her debut album, so that could be another 2 #1s which would bring her total to 14, moving ahead of Madonna and tying Rihanna (assuming she never releases an album.....come on girl, we're waiitng! LOL).  

Then 2025 will probably be a new album an another #1 song, so that will be 15 #1s, moving ahead of Rihanna, and only 4 behind Mariah.   I could see Taylor beating Mariah's 19 #1s before the decade is over, with the assumption she doesn't take a break for marriage and/or a baby.  Oh and there's also another potential number one with a song from her feature film directorial debut.

Perhaps, because Rihanna would have definitely moved passed Elvis and Mariah by now if she has kept up with releasing music. 

Though, it's really hard to even compare a #1 in this era vs. one from the 80's and 90's. If Madonna and Janet were operating under the same chart rules as Swift and Rhianna during their commercial peaks, they likely would have had a lot more #1's. Hell, Madonna herself had 6 singles that peaked at #2 on the Hot 100, which used to be a record (maybe it still is?). Fair or not, it was a lot harder to hit #1 in that era than it is now for a super popular artist. 

It was also very unusual for female artists to have huge singles success until Madonna and Whitney Houston's emergence in the mid-80's. They broke a glass ceiling of sorts that rivaled and surpassed success of male artists of that time (and before). Before Madonna scored her 10th #1 hit with 'This Used To Be My Playground' in 1992, the only female act that had amassed that many #1 hits was The Supremes in the 60's (they had 12, which would also be the amount Madonna would amass on the Hot 100).

Elvis has 7 as well, but some of those may have come in the era pre-dating the establishment of the Hot 100 or been double-sided singles. Swift would have the record in the Hot 100 era, edging out Madonna's 6 #2's. It's all very convoluted depending on what the chart rules are at the time, which is why I caution comparing artists from different eras and their commercial peaks.

It looks like radio (and the new rules, maybe) is helping "Anti-Hero" stay at #1.   This week it hit 88.5 million radio airplay audience impressions, up from 83.8 million.  With 8 weeks at #1, "Anti-Hero" passes "Blank Space" to become Taylor's longest #1 song. She's had #1s in between songs, but this is her first big hit since "Blank Space" in late 2014-early 2015.

SZA blocked by Miley! When I first heard "Flowers," I didn't think it would blow up like this.  Apparently, it's huge on TikTok?   Two years ago this month, "Drivers License" had a similar debut.  Maybe January is a good month to release breakup songs?  LOL

      Y&R: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      I would wager that was because it was a new character for the likes of Devon, Lily and Nate to interact with. Watching the likes of Billy fall in love again-Phyllis, Chelsea,Lily and now Sally is repetitive, especially when he is no prize. Josh doesn't really do long term couples. So every year or so they swap partners. It diminishes them as characters as they don't seem to grow or learn from the past. We know those characters so well and they've been through just about everything, so the only solution is to involve them with new characters and have them react to the newbies drama. They tried with Ashland and the Rosales but Josh dumped the latter and wrote so badly for Ashland who could have been a long term antagonist. All we got was another short lived marriage for Victoria and another accidental killing. And Josh thinks having them sit in restaraunts for the whole episode talking business, mergers, takeovers and job switching is interestring. It's not. I feel sorry for the actors who must know they are serving shite.

      If I were to cast a Soap Opera veteran as Jan.. I would have picked Krista Allen (of Days and B & B fame) since she did move to the Atlanta area in late 2023... and knows all there is about the Soap opera way of filming.  And I could see her playing Ashley's mom.

      Is the set for Lulu's new house an updated version of the set used for the childhood home of Luke, Bobbie and Pat Spencer?

      AMC: Lifetime TV Movie Franchise Announced

      By Chris B · Posted

      I feel like AMC would be the easiest of their soaps to revive but a reboot seems cursed at this point. I wish we had more insight on what was pitched for the primetime reboot as well as these movies. That would give us a better idea of why it keeps getting shot down.

      Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)

      By Broderick · Posted

      Mansion of the Damned sure is a "talkative" horror movie.  In the past when I've watched those episodes, I was paying attention to The Edge of Night characters and not really zeroing in on the rehearsals/blocking/filming of the actual movie.  This time I've been following the plot of Mansion of the Damned pretty closely, and all I can say is Hester Atherton and Nicholas Harriman are about the most chit-chatty Witch and Devil I've ever heard in my life!

      Ashley and Derek have been so isolated that I need the show to develop something, anything to justify their presence. It's not that I think Joey being her father will be the greatest story ever told but at least it would be something and connect her to more characters. I just need the show to move forward with them. Out of all the characters, these are the only two with no storyline/development. We have recurring characters who are better used with less screentime. If the show is going to keep them on contract they need to do something with them.

      B&B: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By edgeofnik · Posted

      I never thought I'd say it, but SC is B&B's best male actor - by far. SK is next. Has there ever been a US soap that has so much female talent surrounding by Himbos? KKL, JMW, HT, KB, AN, RB could be/have been leading ladies on any other soap. Even the secondary females are the ones who carry their scenes. It's been rare periods when B&B actually had a few solid male cast members. JMW really did a great job in the scenes with AN. Considering everything we've witnessed the past couple of years with Steffy/Hope, I thought reveal may ring hollow. JMW proved me wrong. No doubt this is Emmy material.

      You won't even accept a minute cameo from Ms Marcil herself so she can collect her cheque?

      Which has also slowed down from 100 pages a day, but I digress.

          Yeah. When even I am getting annoyed with it (and still need to catch up on DAYS new team...two weeks behind now grrr) enough to take a break...and B&B holds my interest more for a show where nothing is going on...it's a BAD sign.   Seriously thinking about that break until

       Then we go from there. I just can't believe JG just went and lost all the momentum that was built up over the last month. And during May Sweeps, too? No, ma'am.
