Swift is an 11-time Grammy winner and the only female artist in Grammy history to win the coveted Album of the Year award three times.
She recently earned another Grammy nomination for Song of the Year, the 10-minute version of "All Too Well," which is eligible for the Best Live-Action Short category at the 2023 Oscars.
