Taylor Swift thinks she'd make a great spy

In her upcoming appearance on the BBC Radio 2 Breakfast Show, host Scott Mills said: "Gloria Estefan was once asked by the CIA to become a spy. Have you ever been asked because you'd be a great spy. Think about all the secrets you have to keep."

Taylor - who infamously hid in a cleaning cart to be transported to the stage on her Eras tour - quipped: "Yeah, but that's classified, unfortunately."

Discussing which aspects of being a spy she'd be good at, she added: "Oh God, I think the entering and exiting buildings without being seen.

"Just put me in a garbage can and roll me. I don't care honestly no...I can fit in like a purse...

"Look here's the thing sometimes. I just can't deal with it. Yeah, and in those times I won't deal with it. So yeah, I'm just digging tunnels under every building I go into. Airlifting in through the skylight."

The 35-year-old pop star confirmed she warns friends if they are mentioned in her songs before the tracks are made public.

She said: "If they're real people, yeah. Yeah, if they're real people. And like if it's like Elizabeth Taylor, we go to their family and her estate and let them know and they were lovely about it."

Asked if she had to call any pals before releasing her latest album, The Life of a Showgirl, she said: "Yeah, there's, I mean, one of my best friends from high school, my best friend from high school, but one of my best friends in my whole world, Abigail, we met when we were 14 years old, and there's a line in the song Ruin the Friendship that says 'Abigail called me with the bad news'.

"And so I had to like, you know, tell her, 'cause she's been mentioned in songs before, there's a song called Fifteen and she's mentioned in it, but I obviously want to tell her."
