An iHeartRadio press release, published March 7, noted that Taylor has “created music that for years has topped the charts at multiple formats, while creating groundbreaking tours, including 2019’s Reputation Stadium Tour the highest-grossing US tour in history… and 2023’s The Eras Tour, which broke records for single-day ticket sales.”
Not to mention, as the streaming service noted, her single, “Anti-Hero” is currently the most played song across iHeartRadio platforms. But it’s more than just Taylor’s music as to the reason why this particular award belongs with her.
