Taylor got an early Christmas present with her social media fans hitting the big six-zero.
The Shake It Off star celebrated the milestone in a rather low key manner, thanking her fans for their support.
She wrote on Instagram: 'Well would you look at that. Thanks for the 60 million followers situation guys! Merry Christmas indeed.'
Nipping at her social media tail is, of course, Kim who hit 55 million followers over the weekend.

In one image the star dressed up as one of Santa's elves and posting a picture on social media on Thursday.

The Style hitmaker may have listening to Drake's hit single Hotline Bling when she captioned the picture.
'You used to call me on my elf phone,' Taylor wrote.
That was a lighthearted reference to rapper's refrain, 'You used to call me on my cell phone/Late night when you need my love/Call me on my cell phone/Late night when you need my love.'
