It’s official: The single-week marks for the most sales and album units for an album in the modern era (since 1991) now belong to Taylor Swift. Her new album The Life of a Showgirl debuts atop the Billboard 200 (dated. Oct. 18) with a staggering 4.002 million in equivalent album units (including streaming equivalent albums and track sale equivalent albums) — soaring past the 3.482 million posted by the previous record holder, Adele’s 25, during its debut week in 2015 — with 3,479,500 of that Showgirl number also coming in straight sales, besting the record 3.378 million sold by 25 in that same 2015 week.
The numbers are absolutely stupefying — even when considering the massive totals Swift had previously been putting up this decade, with a trio of million-selling 2020s debut weeks already to her credit (for 2022’s Midnights, 2023’s 1989 (Taylor’s Version) and 2024’s The Tortured Poets Department). That latter release, Swift’s most recent, had already blown past every other non-Adele album of the prior 20 years, with 1.914 million in first-week sales, and 2.61 million in first-week units. But now, Swift has put those already-jaw-dropping numbers firmly in her rearview, with Showgirl posting huge sales gains of 83% and units gains of 53% over its most immediate predecessor.
How was Taylor Swift able to leapfrog not only her previous best single-week marks with her latest, but also the biggest weeks in modern chart history? Here are five ways she was able to make it happen with The Life of a Showgirl (beyond, of course, simply being Taylor Swift).

Showgirls supporting showgirls. Following the record-breaking No. 1 debut of Taylor Swift‘s The Life of a Showgirl on the Billboard 200 — which it achieved by selling more than 4 million copies in its first week, marking the biggest sales week in history — Sabrina Carpenter took to Instagram Stories to congratulate her former Eras tourmate.

Sabrina Carpenter Gushes Over ‘Magical’ Grand Ole Opry Debut With Sheryl Crow: ‘I Am the Biggest Fan Ever’
Swift first reacted to the news of her mammoth achievement shortly after it was announced on Monday (Oct. 13), writing on Instagram, “I have 4 million thank you’s I want to send to the fans, and 4 million reasons to feel even more proud of this album than I already was.”
Carpenter then reshared the 14-time Grammy winner’s post and wrote emphatically, “Of. All. Time.” alongside a series of heart emojis.
The “Espresso” singer didn’t need to type out “Greatest” for followers to know that she was calling the latter the “GOAT” — Swift’s numbers speak for themselves. Debuting with 4.002 million equivalent album units, Showgirl blows past Adele’s previous record with 25 for biggest-ever opening week in the modern era.
Showgirl also marks Swift’s 15th album to top the Billboard 200, allowing her to overtake Jay-Z and Drake for the record for most No. 1 albums on the chart as a soloist. In that regard, she is bested only by the Beatles, who had 19 LPs reach the ranking’s summit.
“I’ll never forget how excited I was in 2006 when my first album sold 40,000 copies in its first week,” Swift wrote in her Instagram post about the feat in addition to sharing a photo of herself kissing her new Billboard 200 plaque. “I was 16 and couldn’t even fathom that that many people would care enough about my music to invest their time and energy into it.”
“Thank you for going out to celebrate this project in the movie theaters, investing in vinyl, streaming, watching the video, buying CDs, reading the poems I wrote inside the packaging, and immersing yourselves in The Life of a Showgirl,” she added. “I’ll cherish this feeling forever. Just wow. Thank you for the lovely bouquet.”
Carpenter in particular has a lot of reason to celebrate the success of Showgirl. The Girl Meets World alum was the only guest artist on the album, duetting with Swift on the project’s title track. Swift also wove references to her global Eras Tour into many of the songs on the LP, and Carpenter was one of the superstar’s supporting acts during the Latin America, Asia and Australia legs of the trek.
In October 2024, Carpenter would make a surprise cameo at one of Swift’s Eras shows in New Orleans to perform “Espresso.” The end of “The Life of a Showgirl” features audio recording of the two ladies saying goodnight to the crowd.
“One of the things I’ll always remember from this weekend was getting to surprise the crowd with a performance by the pop princess of our dreams,” Swift wrote of Carpenter on Instagram after the NOLA show. “One of the reasons I respect her so much is that she does things like this, goes out of her way to give fans a surprise moment they didn’t expect.”

Scott took to Instagram to make the announcement official with a photoshoot awaiting the arrival of her first baby in 2026. She surprised her partner Matt Moeller with the positive pregnancy test and a pair of infant Nike “Panda” Dunks.
“THE BEST OF YOU + ME For months, I’ve carried a tiny heartbeat inside me, one that has already changed mine in every possible way,” she wrote. “There’s something indescribable about knowing there’s a little life growing, dreaming, and becoming, all while you go about your day, whispering prayers and hopes only they can hear.
Scott continued: “I’ve never felt more grateful for this gift and to grow our family, something we’ve wanted for so long. Thank you God for this blessing. Baby M, we can’t wait to meet you, little one.”
Eminem’s biological daughter Hailie Jade, who gave birth to her first son Elliot in March, chimed in with some well-wishes for her sister.
“Sooo happy for you guys can’t wait to be this little ones auntie & elliot is so excited to meet his cousin,” she wrote.
Hailie Jade honored her father by lending Em’s first name, Marshall, to her baby boy’s middle name. Hailie surprising Em with news he was going to be a grandpa for the first time was included in the footage of his “Temporary” music video, which found the rap legend getting emotional when receiving a Detroit Lions jersey with “Grandpa” inscribed across the back nameplate.

“The Fate of Ophelia” leads the lists, debuting as Swift’s sixth and fourth No. 1, respectively, dating to the charts’ starts in September 2020. On the Global 200, she passes Ariana Grande for the most leaders among women; on Global Excl. U.S., she ties Grande and BLACKPINK for the most among solo women or all-female groups.
HUNTR/X’s “Golden,” from Netflix’s animated hit movie KPop Demon Hunters, is the only song in Swift’s way in the top 10 of the charts, at No. 5 on the Global 200 and No. 2 on Global Excl. U.S., falling from No. 1 after 12 weeks atop each tally, beginning in July.
The Life of a Showgirl, released Oct. 3, charges in at No. 1 on the U.S.-based Billboard 200 chart with the biggest week for an album, by equivalent album units and album sales, since Luminate began collecting album data electronically in 1991. Swift earns her 15th No. 1 set, passing JAY-Z for the most among soloists in the chart’s history.
The Billboard Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.
Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.
“The Fate of Ophelia” rules the Global 200 with 216.9 million streams worldwide in the week ending Oct. 9. (It, like all tracks from The Life of a Showgirl, has no sales counting toward the chart, as they were not available for purchase individually during the album’s first week of release.)
The song scores the fifth-highest streaming week worldwide since the Global 200 began:
289.2 million, “Butter,” BTS, June 5, 2021
224.5 million, “APT.,” ROSÉ & Bruno Mars, Nov. 2, 2024
217.1 million, “Seven,” Jung Kook feat. Latto, July 29, 2023
217.1 million, “Flowers,” Miley Cyrus, Feb. 4, 2023
216.9 million, “The Fate of Ophelia,” Taylor Swift, Oct. 18, 2025

Swift pushes her totals to 42 top 10s on the Global 200 and 29 on Global Excl. U.S. On the former, she passes Drake (37) for the most in the chart’s archives; on the latter, she bests Bad Bunny (24) for the record.
Plus, Swift ties her own mark for the most concurrent Global 200 top 10s, after she took nine of the top 10 on May 4, 2024, and Nov. 5, 2022, when her albums The Tortured Poets Department and Midnights made their chart starts, respectively. She breaks the record on Global Excl. U.S., surpassing the eight songs that she placed in the top 10 upon the chart arrival of Midnights.

At the top of host Amy Poehler’s SNL monologue, she pointed out that the show had debuted exactly 50 years ago, on Saturday, Oct. 11, 1975. Since that milestone has already yielded four specials, including Questlove’s and Oz Rodriguez mostly superb Ladies & Gentlemen…50 Years of SNL Music (a must-see for its thrilling opening, a visual DJ mix of performance clips), the show indulged nostalgia of more recent vintage. Poehler — hosting for her third time and appearing in almost every sketch — brought out her bestie Tina Fey and Weekend Update co-anchor Seth Meyers, who are most closely associated with the 2000-2006 seasons.
If there was a nod to SNL’s first decade, it was Role Model’s snake-hipped, butt-waggling performance of “Sally When the Wine Runs Out,” a country-laced pop confection laced with ‘70s AM radio vibes. Decked out in sparkly elephant bells and a body-hugging knit shirt, Role Model himself could have been performing it on The Sonny & Cher Show or, given the hayloft set, Hee-Haw. (Not a diss — the musical guests on Hee-Haw knew how to kick it.) Charli XCX’s dance cameo brought things back to the present, though her throwback Max’s Kansas City t-shirt kept the ‘70s vibe going. A clap back at Taylor Swift’s “Actually Romantic”? You’ll find that addressed elsewhere.
Overall, the show was not one for the time capsule, as the great Joe Franklin used to say. There were some big laughs — Colin Jost deep faked into the much-seen video of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein sharing a laugh was a beautiful thing — but plenty of sketches felt heavy-handed. There’s always next week, as Season 51 continues with Sabrina Carpenter doing double duty as host and musical guest.
Until then, here’s a ranking of the Oct. 11 sketches from worst to best.

World-renowned Japanese artist Takashi Murakami just dropped his new collaboration with Hong Kong-based phone case and electronics accessories company Casetify. The collection includes everything from suitcases, laptop cases and phone cases to phone charms and blind boxes, ranging from $32 to $950. The full collection can be shopped right now on Casetify’s website.
Murakami is best known as a the creator of the Superflat movement, which blends traditional Japanese art with modern pop culture elements taken from anime and manga. He utilizes floral motifs, which you’ll see a lot of throughout this collaboration, in rainbow hues that lean into a pop art style.
Murakami’s work has been featured across industries from music to fashion. Most notably, the artist lent his work to Kanye West’s 2007 album Graduation and a slew of Louis Vuitton endeavors. Billie Eilish is another artist who has worked with Murakami, teaming up with him and Uniqlo in 2020 for a collaborative collection that included 22 fashionable items ranging from apparel to accessories.
Now, Murakami’s collaboration with Casetify could be yours to own. To help you along your shopping journey, we’ve shared some of our favorite pieces from the collection that you can shop now.
There are a multitude of phone cases in this collection, varying in construction and size. These cases are a maximalist dream, equipped with eye-catching florals in all colors of the rainbow. Some of the many cases in the collection are a bit more subdued, giving the less-adventurous fans of both Murakami and Casetify something to shop for.
Whichever one you end up choosing, they’re all $64. In case you were wondering, this collection supports all the latest devices, including the iPhone 16 series, Galaxy S and Z series. Every case can be further customized to appeal to the user’s safety and cosmetic preferences. Want a more protective case? How about a mirrored finish? You can achieve all that and more via the website, often for an added price.
The collection’s suitcases are equally vibrant, equipped with that same floral motif that will ensure you’ll never mix up your suitcase at baggage claim ever again. There are nine total suitcases available to choose from, varying in size from carry-on to a larger check-in silhouette. Our favorites are the Flowers Sticker Mania Check-In Trunk Suitcase for $950 and the more subdued Smile Rainbow Carry On for $750. While the collection has favorites on While suitcases aren’t Casetify’s bread and butter, they’re still just as good as their phone cases.
The collection also includes a slew of accessories for both phones and laptops. Our favorites include the Flowers Sticker Mania Earbud Case for $32 and the Flowers Field Laptop Sleeve for $46. The earbud case comes equipped with a sticker-inspired design. It’s eye-catching and bold, especially when placed on that all-white background. Meanwhile, the new laptop sleeve features even more floral motifs cropping up. The zip-up case is made of a puffy neoprene that prevents scratching and absorbs the brunt of bumps and drops. The case is lightweight and comes in two sizes, 16 and 13 inches.

The past week in hip-hop and R&B was filled with major announcements.
On Thursday (Oct. 9), a federal judge dismissed Drake’s bombshell post-“Not Like Us” lawsuit against Universal Music Group.
“The artists’ seven-track rap battle was a ‘war of words’ that was the subject of substantial media scrutiny and online discourse,” the judge explained. “Although the accusation that plaintiff is a pedophile is certainly a serious one, the broader context of a heated rap battle, with incendiary language and offensive accusations hurled by both participants, would not incline the reasonable listener to believe that ‘Not Like Us’ imparts verifiable facts about plaintiff.”
While Drake has yet to publicly comment on the ruling, Mustard, the Grammy-winning producer behind Lamar’s “Not Like Us” and “TV Off,” posted several laughing emojis to his official X account. The Drake-UMG lawsuit was a jaw-dropping development in the rap battle that ruled 2024, and now Drizzy has been handed another L as he continues to roll out his forthcoming Iceman project. Lamar, on the other hand, is gearing up for his final four Grand National tour stops, all in Australia.
This week’s other big announcements included the official comeback of Verzuz. In partnership with Complex, the music battle series will return at ComplexCon on Oct. 25 with a face-off between No Limit Records and Cash Money Records. Additionally, on Monday (Oct. 13), Billboardexclusively revealed the title, artwork and tracklist for Wale’s forthcoming Everything Is a Lot LP, which also doubles as his Def Jam debut.
With Fresh Picks, Billboard aims to highlight some of the best and most interesting new sounds across R&B and hip-hop — from a new A Boogie banger to a sultry collaboration between Lojay and Tyla. Be sure to check out this week’s Fresh Picks in our Spotify playlist below.

Billie Eilish Reacts to Brother Finneas’ Engagement to Longtime Girlfriend Claudia Sulewski
Last week, 18-year-old concertgoer Aniyah didn’t hesitate when another concertgoer grabbed Eilish’s arm and slammed her into the barricade at the singer’s first of three October performances at the Kaseya Center. As captured in numerous videos from the night, the young fan — who was wearing a red bandana at the time, making her easy to spot in the chaos — chased down the culprit as he was being pulled away by security personnel and fiercely scolded him.
A few days later, Eilish sent Aniyah a sweatshirt and other goodies as a thank-you for stepping in, as captured in a photo posted Sunday (Oct. 12) to the fan’s Instagram Story. “thank you so much for the gifts billie!!!” Aniyah wrote, stamping it with several heart emojis.
Eilish is just the latest to recognize Aniyah for her fearlessness. In just a few days, Aniyah has gained more than half a million followers on TikTok, with the nine-time Grammy winner’s fanbase seeking her out online to praise her for protecting their idol. Finneas also shouted out Aniyah on his Instagram Story shortly after the incident occurred, writing, “Red bandana girl from last night’s show rules.”
The pop star has not publicly commented on what happened, but local police confirmed to ABC News that the aggressive concertgoer was immediately ejected from the Kaseya Center. No further action was taken after that.
Eilish has since closed out her run of shows in Miami. Her next stop on the Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour — which kicked off more than a year ago in September 2024 — will take place at the Kia Center in Orlando, Fla., on Tuesday (Oct. 14).
