The Love Story singer beat Sir Elton John, Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley to the top spot.
A new report on UK Google searches has revealed that Taylor Swift is the most popular musician of all time.
The research, which was carried out by Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino, involved analyzing Google searches by country and charting the musicians who get the most clicks and searches.
Swift had a whopping 1.8 million monthly UK searches, proving her to be the most sought after and popular artist in the country.
The Pennsylvania-born singer released her most recent album, The Tortured Poets Department, last month to mostly mixed reviews from fans.
Despite this, fascination for Swift is at an all-time high, according to Google Trends data.
She also ranked as the most popular artist in the US, becoming even more talked about this past year following her high-profile relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce.
The 34-year-old returns to the UK next month for her Eras tour, and will play shows in Edinburgh, Liverpool, Cardiff and several nights at London’s Wembley stadium
Swift is followed by rapper Eminem, who is searched 718K times across the UK every month – less than half of the searches than Taylor’s top spot.
The rapper is the most Googled male musician as well as rapper on the list.
British musicians, Ed Sheeran and Lewis Capaldi take third and fourth place respectively. Ed Sheeran is searched by Brits 627K times every month, whilst Lewis Capaldi is searched 618K times each month – just slightly less than Ed Sheeran.
