Taylor Swift still can’t regain the “Greatest Pop Star” title from Billboard … losing out on the accomplishment for the second year in a row … and begging the question, who outdid her???

TS finished at No. 2. on the magazine’s “Greatest” list … one spot higher than she ended last year, but still falling short of the ultimate title.

Last year, Sabrina Carpenter and Kendrick Lamar finished at #2 and #1, respectively … but they fell behind T-Swift this year … finishing at #5 and #4. So the person who beat out Taylor this year will be a different star than the last iteration.

It’s a good bet Swifities are going to lose their minds over the news … especially after Taylor’s monster 2025 … during which she released her best-selling album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” and gained ownership over her masters.

Under TS in order are Lady Gaga, Lamar, Carpenter and the “KPop Demon Hunters” cast … all music industry heavyweights.

Neither Beyoncé or Bad Bunny has been listed yet … so could one of them take the crown?
