Taylor Swift inducted into Songwriters Hall of Fame, its youngest member in history

The Songwriters Hall of Fame inducted Taylor Swift into its exclusive club, the group said Wednesday, making the world famous pop star its youngest honoree at 36.

The Class of 2026 also included Walter Afanasieff, Terry Britten and Graham Lyle, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of KISS, Kenny Loggins, Alanis Morissette and Christopher “Tricky” Stewart.

To be eligible for the hall, a songwriter’s first commercially released composition has to be at least 20 years old. Swift’s “Tim McGraw” first hit radio stations in June 2006.

Carole Bayer Sager had previously been the youngest honoree, at 43, when she was inducted.

Swift selected “All Too Well (10 Minute Version),” “Blank Space,” “Anti-Hero,” “Love Story,” and “The Last Great American Dynasty” for her successful submission.

The induction ceremony is set for June 11 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City.

This could make for a very busy summer for Swift, who is expected to tie the knot this year with boyfriend Travis Kelce.

While no date has been publicly set for her union with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, it’s widely believed the ceremony could take place in June.

Since her record-breaking “Eras Tour” came to a close 13 months ago, Swift has not slowed down.

Songs from her most recent album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” have been dominating the charts since it dropped on Oct. 3. “The Fate of Ophelia” spent 10 weeks on top of Billboard’s Hot 100 chart while “Opalite” hit No. 2.
