Taylor Swift's Super Secret Method Of Preventing Leaks Involves A Suitcase

Taylor Swift is one of the few industry titans that rarely falls victim to blogosphere leakage and it's for good reason, considering the pop titan goes to extreme measures to make sure that her material is under lock and key.
BFF Ed Sheeran made the reveal in a new interview with Brazilian online magazine Capricho, admitting that the 27-year-old chart-topper never sends him new songs online. In fact, he typically "has to be with her" when he hears new material.
However, there are exceptions to the rule, particularly the time that Swift sent someone over to Sheeran with a locked briefcase. "I remember when I did a song with her for her album, I was in San Francisco and they sent someone with a locked briefcase with an iPad and one song on it and they flew to San Francisco, and played the song I’ve done with her," he explained. "And they asked if I like it and I was like 'Yeah' and then they took it back, that’s how I hear it."
This was for "Everything Has Changed," the pair's duet for her 2012 LP Red, so you can only imagine how much Taylor has probably upped her security game.
