Taylor Swift, 1D & Calvin Harris Score Guinness World Records

The likes of Calvin Harris have all entered the Guinness Book of World Records.

 

Swift scored two entries, with her hit tune We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together taking the title for the fastest-selling digital single after it reached the No.1 spot on iTunes in just 50 minutes following its release.

 

The 23-year old star was also named as the first solo female artist with two million-selling weeks on the US album chart since records began in 1991. 

 

 

 

Taylor's ex-boyfriend Harry Styles also got his name in the record books, with 1D earning a place for their track, Live While We're Young, which became the highest debut by a UK group on the American singles chart after it reached No.3.

 

Scottish superstar DJ Calvin broke Michael Jackson's record for having the most top 10 hits from one album.

 

 

 

His 18 Months LP replaces MJ's 1987 album Bad and his 1991 hit disc Dangerous, which both managed to achieve seven top ten hits in the UK. 

 

Emeli Sande's Our Version of Events also scored Guinness World Record success, after the record obtained the most consecutive UK Top 10 weeks for a debut album.

 

The 2014 edition of the Guinness World Records is due for release on September 12.
