Taylor Swift walks sideways to avoid paparazzi

Taylor Swift is an absolute pro at avoiding those pesky paps.

Forget diversion cars, doppelgangers and sunglasses - the 26-year-old prefers to walk sideways (and sometimes backwards) to avoid getting her post-workout face snapped by paparazzi.

The singer-songwriter was leaving popular model gym Body By Simone when some photographers were lurking nearby.

But instead of throwing on a hoodie and dark sunglasses the ‘Shake It Off’ hitmaker did a cute little crab walk to her nearby car. Yep, it’s mesmerising.

It’s not the first time Tay’s gone to extreme lengths to avoid getting snapped.

Remember when she walked backwards to her car?

Or that time she walked backwards down a hill during a hike…

"I saw the guy with the camera and wasn't in the mood,” Taylor later told fans on Tumblr. “So I hiked the whole trail backwards and my security told me when to make turns."

She added: “Ah, the tranquility of the great outdoo-TAYLORCANYOULOOKOVERHEREGIVEUSASMILEARE

The one thing Tay-Tay can’t walk her way out of is all that Kimye ‘Famous’ drama.

Kanye was recently involved in a huge public spat with Taylor over his controversial single Famous, after she claimed she didn't give him permission to sing about her.

But his wife Kim Kardashian West decided to leak a series of videos on Snapchat which featured the rapper on the phone to Taylor discussing the controversial lyrics and she appeared to give it the go-ahead.

Speaking as he performed as a special guest at Drake's Chicago concert, he told the audience: "I am so glad my wife has Snapchat. 'Cause now y'all can know the truth. And can't nobody talk s**t about Ye no more!"

He then went on to perform Famous and put extra emphasis on the lyrics behind the fall-out - "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? Because I made that b**ch famous."

The lines were in reference to Kanye interrupting Taylor's acceptance speech at the MTV VMAs in 2009.

Following the release of the Snapchat videos, when people accused her of lying, the Shake It Off hitmaker has argued that Kanye never told her he'd call her a "b*tch."
