Twitter had some major questions on Monday.
SPIN 1038 broke the bizarre story that Taylor Swift may have been transported out of her Tribeca apartment in a large suitcase.
The Irish radio station shared a picture from a photo-sharing website that theorized in the caption that Swift was in a large suitcase accompanied by “almost a dozen security guards” as it was being put in the back of her truck.

While it’s certainly true that Swift has some strange tricks to avoid the paparazzi, such as walking backwards or sideways to her vehicle to hide her face, the idea that she would stuff herself in a suitcase to avoid the press seems a bit far-fetched.
Or does it?
Maybe she's having a bad face day, we've all been there idk https://t.co/eVbFTSNk1u

Twitter certainly has its doubts:

Regardless of the credibility, the idea of Swift cramming her 5-foot, 10-inch frame into that suitcase has Twitter in stitches:

I've never been more certain of anything in my life. Taylor Swift *IS* hiding in that suitcase.

Many lauded Swift for her alleged masterful plan:
Me, a pleb: I pack my clothes in a suitcase when I need to travel.
You, Taylor Swift: I pack myself in a suitcase when I travel.

Sadly, the photo-sharing website eventually retracted its story:

Still, it kinda makes you wonder:
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!!) pic.twitter.com/45cEjTlVyP
