Taylor Swift is celebrating her recent success on the Billboard charts.

On Saturday (July 20), the 34-year-old pop superstar thanked Swifties for their help with her latest album, The Tormented Poets Departmentreigned at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart for 12 weeks.

“I also wanted to say to everyone who has supported me The Tormented Poets Department“I am completely blown away by what you have done,” Swift wrote on Instagram alongside a gallery of recent Eras Tour photos. “It stayed at #1 for the first 12 weeks of its release and that has never happened to any album of mine, not even close!! You are simply the best.”

Earlier this week, Swift’s 31-song collection surpassed Whitney Houston’s 1987 album, Whitneyto become the only album by a woman to spend its first 12 weeks atop the Billboard 200. It also marked a career high for Swift, whose 1989 And Fearless releases each spent 11 weeks at #1. Only two other albums have spent at least their first 12 weeks at #1: Morgan Wallen’s One thing at a time and Stevie Wonder’s Songs in the key of life.

Swift posted her celebratory message on social media following her three Eras Tour concerts at the Veltins-Arena in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, from July 17 to 19.

“Those 3 Gelsenkirchen crowds were AMAZING and so thoughtful??? There were signs and paper hearts, the ‘betty’ wave and lots of homemade ‘willow’ balls made from balloons + phone flashlights. Thank you!!!” Swift wrote on Instagram.

The “Anti-Hero” singer’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, was in the audience for all of her shows in Germany. Fans watched the Kansas City Chiefs tight end dance along at the concert, proudly filming his superstar girlfriend singing “So High School” on her opening night in Gelsenkirchen and escorting her backstage on night two.

Swift will then travel to Hamburg for a pair of concerts at the city’s Volksparkstadion from July 23-24 and Munich’s Olympiastadion from July 27-28. Paramore will premiere on both dates. Once the European leg of her Eras tour is over, she’ll return to the U.S. and Canada for a final victory lap in November and December.
