Taylor Swift made history (or should that be herstory?) at the 58th annual Grammy Awards on Monday, becoming the first female artist to take Album of the Year twice for albums on which she was the lead artist. She won for her fifth album, 1989, six years after winning for her sophomore set, Fearless.
Swift, 26, is the youngest two-time Album of the Year winner since Stevie Wonder, who was 24 in 1975 when he won in the category for the second time. 1989 (the title is a reference to the year of Swift’s birth) was released in October 2014, near the beginning of the eligibility year.
Swift, who won Best Country Album six years ago for Fearless, is also the first artist to take Best Album honors in both pop and country.
