Triple-platinum-selling recording artist Taylor Swift reached another online milestone this weekend, surpassing the 50 MILLION mark for music streams on MySpace, where she is consistently ranked Country’s #1 artist.

Taylor, who averages over 5 million MySpace streams each month, was nominated just last week for a 2008 Teen Choice Award for Breakthrough Artist.

This week, the Recording Industry Association of America’s (RIAA) announced that Taylor was awarded the highest Gold & Platinum certification of any artist in any genre in the month of May. Taylor Swift received 3x Multi-Platinum prestige to commemorate sales exceeding 3 million since its 2006 release.

Additionally, Taylor gained Gold Mastertone certification for filling more than 500,000 phones with her hit single ‘Our Song.’ In addition, Taylor has been awarded two Digital Platinum certifications (1 million downloads) and two Digital Gold certifications (500,000 downloads).

Also this week, Taylor’s self-titled debut CD, released on Big Machine Records an amazing 86 weeks ago, continues to pick up steam in stores, spending its 20th week at #1 atop Billboard’s Country CD Sales chart. Thisaccomplishment places Taylor in an elite group-the only other country artists this decade to hold the #1 sales position for 20 weeks or more are the Dixie Chicks and Carrie Underwood.

Widely hailed as the first bonafide country superstar of the MySpace generation, 18-year-old Taylor Swift currently has singles climbing both the country and pop radio charts.
