Taylor Swift's international breakout is often associated with her album "Speak Now" released in 2010. While the album contains several references to love, relationships, and personal experiences, it does not specifically reference Shakespearean themes or works. However, Taylor Swift's songwriting has been praised for its storytelling and lyrical depth, which may draw parallels to the literary techniques employed by Shakespeare. Although there may not be a direct Shakespearean reference in her international breakout, her ability to connect with audiences through relatable and emotionally resonant lyrics contributed to her success on a global scale.
