Swift has also become one of the most successful female recording artists ever, surpassed only by Rihanna in digital record single sales. Rihanna has reached 166.5 million in sales, while Swift has earned 137.5 million. The 12-time Grammy winner is in great company, as Beyonce claims the third spot, pulling in 114.5 million.

Included in the mix? A Barbie pink Chevrolet Silverado, naturally, as well as a Toyota Sequoia, the celebrity favorite Cadillac Escalade, and a Porsche 911 Turbo.
