Malik has now reopened the case (yes, we like puns).
Zayn Malik may have just confirmed a crazy fan theory that Taylor Swift once hid in a suitcase to avoid the paparazzi.
Back in July of 2017 pictures circulated of two men carrying a large case out of Swift's Tribeca residence. Various media outlets reported that Swift had actually been transported inside the box to avoid being photographed, based solely on a description provided by the photo agency selling the images. At the time, fans went into a frenzy over the news. However, the agency who syndicated the photos ended up retracting their original statement at the order of a member of "Taylor's camp."

View StoryMalik has now -- pun intended -- reopened the case. In an interview with Vogue U.K. published Tuesday, the singer casually said that Swift "was traveling around in a suitcase" as an after thought while talking about fame.
The former One Direction member's comments caused Swifties to lose their minds on social media. Some believers of the theory, the self-titled "suitcase truthers," have now claimed themselves victorious. On the other hand, there were some fans who still don't buy that a "5'10 Taylor Swift" could fit into such a small container.
Whether they believed Malik or not, Swift's dedicated fan base took to Twitter to react to Malik's comment. See the hilarious tweets below.
