Taylor Swift, amidst the glowing reception of her Eras Tour, has clinched the prestigious title of 'Time' Person of the Year, marking a historic moment as the first solo artist and woman to grace the magazine's annual cover twice since its inception in 1927, as reported by the 'Los Angeles Times.'

Her initial appearance on the Person of the Year cover was in 2017, where she stood among the 'Silence Breakers,' a formidable group catalyzing a societal shift around sexual harassment and assault. Sharing the cover with individuals like California lobbyist Adama Iwu, actor Ashley Judd, Isabel Pascual, a strawberry picker, and software engineer Susan Fowler, Swift's impact resonated profoundly.

According to the 'BBC,' the award recognizes individuals or events with significant global influence over the past year.

Despite the accolades and success, Swift candidly admitted to the toll her marathon 180-minute Eras concerts took on her physically. Following a string of performances, she shared, "I do not leave my bed except to get food and take it back to my bed and eat it there."
