During an interview with Vogue, former One Direction member Zayn Malik confirmed a bizarre theory about Taylor Swift: She travels inside of a suitcase.
“She was traveling around in a suitcase,” he told Vogue of Swift’s ability to avoid the paparazzi.
This theory took hold in July 2017 when paparazzi saw two men carefully placing a suitcase in a car outside of the pop star’s New York home. It was then reported that Swift was actually inside the suitcase, which made the rumor take off.

Some people didn’t believe it considering Swift is 5 feet 10 inches tall. How could she possibly fit?
“Was this suitcase once owned by Mary Poppins? I don’t understand how a 5’10 Taylor Swift could be hiding in it otherwise. (but I’m hoping!!),” someone wrote on Twitter.

Others were totally convinced that it was true. “I’ve never been more certain of anything in my life. Taylor Swift *IS* hiding in that suitcase,” someone else said.

The original photo service that reported that Swift was in the suitcase later retracted the story. Swift never commented on the story, but with Malik’s confirmation, even if Swift wasn’t in that particular suitcase last year, maybe she has actually been a suitcase at some point.
With the rumor sparked up again, people on Twitter are asking questions. Many are still wondering how she fits inside. “I’m trying to figure how miss 5’10 Taylor Swift fits into that suitcase,” one person said.

Others are applauding the strategic move. “Taylor Swift escaped the paps by being wheeled around in a suitcase and if that ain’t smart idk what is,” another person wrote.

Another person said they’re stealing the idea. “If Taylor Swift travels in a suitcase, then I’m traveling in a suitcase now.”

And most people are still incredibly confused and want to know the truth. “We are all collectively back into wondering if Taylor was in the suitcase. Was she?? Wasn’t she?? We will never know?? I feel like it’s 2017 again,” someone wrote.

So, was Swift in the suitcase? Was she ever in any suitcase at all? We have a lot of questions and only Swift holds the answers. Hopefully, one day she confirms and lets us know her secret to bending her body into a suitcase. Until then, I want to believe it’s true.
