Taylor Swift is expected to be honored at this week’s BRIT Awards.
Singer I Did Something Bad will receive the prestigious Global Icon Award for her record-breaking music career, according to The Sun.
During the pandemic alone, Taylor, 31, released two albums.
First in July, she dropped out of Folklore in July before Evermore’s surprise release in December.
Earlier this year, Folklore was named Album of the Year at a Grammy Awards stripped in Los Angeles.
Taylor made UK chart history in April after bagging his third number one album in a single year.
The feat surpassed a record of two previously held by The Beatles.

Following the success of Folklore and Evermore, Taylor topped the UK charts with a re-recorded version of his album Fearless.
The original release of the album peaked at number five in 2008.
As the Daily Star revealed in February this year, the BRITS 2021 will have a live indoor hearing – despite the ongoing coronavirus restrictions still in place until next month.

BRIT Awards bosses have teamed up with the government to develop a passport-like method of vaccines for improved testing and tracing for a small crowd.
The scheme is one of a series of pilot projects undertaken by the government ahead of the UK’s full unlock on June 21.
As a special thank you for the hard work of those on the front lines, the majority of tickets went to those working in the NHS.
Once again, comedian Jack Whitehall will host the celebrity-filled event.
Meanwhile, there will be special performances from Coldplay, Dua Lipa, Griff and American superstar The Weeknd.
During the evening, Little Mix is also nominated for Best Group – this will be the first time the winning X Factor group will attend the awards as three musicians after Jesy Nelson decides to quit after a decade with the girls. .

Geoff Taylor, Managing Director of the BRIT Awards, said in a statement: “This year’s BRIT Awards with Mastercard is one of the biggest in the history of the show.
“Not only will we be celebrating the brilliant music and artists who have helped us through the pandemic, but we hope this will pave the way for the return of live music that fans and artists have so sorely missed.”
