Saturday, June 8 was a day to remember for young Taylor Swift. She made country music history at the CMA Country Festival in Nashville, Tennessee when she sat and signed autographs for 900 fans. The teenager went through three Sharpie marker pens as she staged an eight-hour signing marathon.

It's easily the longest a female star has sat for a signing session at the annual country music extravaganza. Garth Brooks famously scribbled his name for thousands of devotees during a 23-hour period at the event in 1996.

Swift also told a group of fans gathered in front of the Ryman Auditorium on Friday that her next single would be "Love Story" from her new album, set for release this fall. Part of the music video was filmed as Swift performed the song several times.
