    Taylor Swift is on fire, and her latest achievement proves it.

    The "August" singer, 34, just broke a major record during the eighth show of her Eras Tour at London’s iconic Wembley Stadium on Tuesday, August 20. The record? Most shows performed by a solo artist at the venue.

    Not only is the accomplishment major on its own, but take into account that she officially outperformed the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson—who played seven nights there during his Bad tour back in 1988.

    During the show, Taylor couldn’t contain her excitement. “You just made me the first solo artist to ever play Wembley eight times in a single tour,” she told the crowd, per BBC News . “We will never, ever be able to thank you enough for it.”

    The record-breaking eighth show at Wembley also leaves Swift tied for the overall record for the most nights at the venue on a single tour, set by Take That on their Progress Tour in 2011.

    But the surprises didn’t stop there. To wrap up the European leg of her tour, Swift was joined on stage by her longtime collaborator and Bleachers frontman, Jack Antonoff, 40, for the acoustic set and Florence Welch, 37, from Florence + the Machine joined for a duet of “Florida!!!!”

    And because it’s Taylor, she didn’t just break records—she dropped a brand-new music video, too. The video for her song “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” from The Tortured Poets Department album premiered for concertgoers at the end of Tuesday’s show, giving fans a peek behind the curtain of the Eras Tour.

    The video features some super fun, behind-the-scenes moments, like Taylor cruising on a scooter, jumping on a mat under the stage, and even hiding in that infamous cleaning cart. We also get to see her trying on costumes, practicing vocals and perfecting choreography with her dancers in the studio.

    While Swifties were living for the music video, they had a very different reaction to something else that was recently unveiled— a new wax figure of the pop star .

    Debuting on August 13, this inanimate doppelgänger (dressed in a sequined romper and giving Swift’s signature hand-heart gesture ) left fans divided over just how closely it resembled the beloved singer.

    Now, with the London shows behind her, Taylor has a well-deserved two-month break before she picks up her tour again in North America this October. She’s set to hit up Miami, New Orleans, Indianapolis, Toronto and Vancouver, before wrapping things up in December.

    Buckle up, Swifties, because it’s going to be one epic ride to the finish.
