Taylor Swift’s Sneaky is also familiar with stage magic, not only in her performances but also in her way onto the stage. Rumors, fan theories, viral videos, and even her own book have, over the years, shared creative (and sometimes comical) ways she has breached venues, paparazzi, or surprised the audience with how she has done so. A full list of her backdoor hijacking over the years- leading to the now-famous Eras Tour janitors’ cart entrance.

1. Early Rumors: The Suitcase Theory
Long before any concert cart antics, Swift was the subject of whisper campaigns and fan speculation about how she avoided public exposure.
- Among the most nagging ones: she was supposedly buried in a huge black suitcase when she was being transferred between her apartment and cars, as a measure to avoid paparazzi. This story was widely spread on social media and tabloids. Some of the reports originally denied it, others (including her colleagues) suggested its possibility.
- Still, there was no official, verified confirmation—Swift never publicly confirmed the suitcase story as fact. It remained part of her mystique.

2. Other Discreet Moves: Backstage Tricks and Stealth Walks
In addition to suitcases, Swift has played with numerous low-key escape strategies throughout the years:
- Backwards walking, crab-walking, or taking unconventional routes to evade the cameras. Swift was seen by fans using umbrellas, tablecloths, and so on.
- The goal: maintain the surprise, preserve performance theater, and protect privacy. Many artists do similar, but Swift’s methods tend to get picked up quickly by fans and media because of her massive following.

3. The “Janitor’s (or Cleaning) Cart” Entrance: Eras Tour’s Defining Moment
The biggest, most documented sneaky entrance comes from Taylor Swift’s Sneaky Eras Tour.
- What fans noticed: Before many of the shows, especially early ones, a large cart piled with cleaning supplies—mops, brooms, etc.—would be wheeled up backstage. For shows with “obstructed view” seats behind the stage, observant fans saw this cart, speculated about it, and eventually recorded video of Swift emerging from it just before taking the stage.
- How it worked: The cleaning cart was rolled on a ramp and into an obscured door or stairs at the back of the stage. When it is time, sometimes accompanied by the sound cues before the show (such as the applause by Gaga), Taylor comes out fully costumed in performance, and starts her first song (mostly Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince).
- Confirmation: It wasn’t just rumors. Taylor herself gave fans a look inside the cart via her Eras Tour Book and later through social media, showing photos of her seated inside the cart, personalized with decor—artwork, signs dedicated to her cats (like Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson, Benjamin Button), etc.

4. Why She Does It: The Performance + Mystery Blend
What drives such elaborate setups? It’s about more than just avoiding photographers. Several factors make these entrances meaningful:
- Theater and magic: Swift treats her shows like a form of storytelling. She builds suspense. The entrance is part of the show—fans are often inside the venue but can’t see her, then she appears suddenly. That sense of surprise heightens the crowd’s reaction.
- Practical privacy: With massive fame comes loss of anonymity. Even backstage, there are photographers, fans sneaking around, etc. The cart provides cover until the character (or performance persona) takes over.
- Social media & fan culture: The rumor videos, the memes, the “did she exit the cart or not” debates—they all amplify buzz. Swift rarely shies away from letting fans see elements of her behind-the-scenes—even when she does so on her own terms.

5. Other Stage Secrets: Beyond the Cart
The cleaning cart entrance isn’t the only “secret” revealed:
- “TayRoomba” – A roving stage platform used during the Eras Tour, especially during The Tortured Poets Department (TTPD) act. Fans dubbed it “TayRoomba.” Swift revealed in her tour book that this platform is operated by someone inside of it moving her around while she performs.
- Props & detail in the cart itself: The cart isn’t just functional—it became part of the lore. In photos and her book, Swift decorated it with playful personal touches. Fans noticed these changes from show to show (e.g, artwork, cat references).

Conclusion: The Entrance Becomes Part of the Legend
The creative ways in which Taylor Swift’s Sneaky has managed to sneak her way into her own shows, including the rumors about the suitcase or the cleaning cart door on her Eras Tour, demonstrate her control over storytelling, privacy, and spectacle. What appears to be fun in show business is highly choreographed: the timing of surprises to music, props turned into an instant symbol, and a transition between the intimate individual and the disclosed performance.
It is not sleight-of-hand on the part of Swift, but it is a part of her brand: making every detail a moment a fan desires to recollect. That is why, the next time you visit a Swift concert (or view one on the Internet), observe how she enters the stage.. That moment—whether in glittering lights or hidden inside a cart—matters. Because her entrance isn’t just how she gets onstage—it’s how she becomes the story.
