Responding to the achievement, Shania penned a message to the singer-songwriter, highlighting the “hurdles” women have to go through in the music industry. 

Let’s Go Girls!!!! Proud of you @taylorswift13. Historical records are meant to be made and then broken. The baton is meant to be passed on to new generations. Unstoppable young female country artists are 🔥 inspite of the hurdles ✊ #trailblazers https://t.co/SZORYzSay6

Referring to her classic 1998 hit Man! I Feel Like A Woman, Shania wrote: “Let’s Go Girls!!!! Proud of you Taylor Swift.

“Historical records are meant to be made and then broken. The baton is meant to be passed on to new generations. 

“Unstoppable young female country artists are [flame emoji] inspite of the hurdles. [sic]”

Meanwhile, Shania recently confirmed new music is coming this year, five years after she returned with her long-awaited fifth studio album ‘Now’.

Sharing an infographic detailing her US chart success on social media, the Come on Over hitmaker penned: “In case I needed reminding ahead of releasing new music this year.”

Shania previously teased she’s written “a mountain of songs” during lockdown.

Admitting she has “enough music for three albums,” the Up! star previously shared: “I’ve got a mountain of songs now!

“You know, Covid has lasted so much longer than any of us expected, so I have enough music for three albums now.”
