Taylor Swift has become the youngest female artist inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
It follows a glittering few years for the 36-year-old pop superstar, who broke her own sales record with her latest album, The Life of a Showgirl, in October.
She is among nine songwriters within the 2026 class, which also includes Canadian-American singer-songwriter Alanis Morissette and Walter Afanasieff, known for his work with Mariah Carey.
The singer will be welcomed into the prestigious club during a private ceremony in New York later this year.
Founded in 1969, the Songwriters Hall of Fame honours those "whose work represents a spectrum of the most beloved songs from the world's popular music songbook".
