Swift previously said that ‘Anti Hero’ hears her delve deeper into her “insecurities” than ever before, describing it as a guided tour through “all the things I hate about myself”.

It comes as the singer celebrates breaking yet more records. Most recently, Swift beat The Beatles to the top of the UK charts by scoring a chart double for a second week in a row.

The US artist held off the challenge of Arctic Monkeys from October 28 to reach the top spot, with ‘Midnights’ becoming the fastest-selling album of the year so far in the UK. In the US meanwhile, she became the first act in history to land 10 tracks in Billboard‘s Hot 100 song chart.

Last week it was reported that Swift would be challenged by The Beatles’ reissue of their classic album ‘Revolver’ for the top spot. She held on to remain at Number One on the album charts, with ‘Anti-Hero’ also scoring a second week at the top of the singles chart.
