Taylor Swift knew that people would be after her new album "1989."

The "Out Of The Woods" singer was so on top of security regarding her new material that she told Jimmy Kimmel during a recent interview on his talk show that she made sure the tracks of "1989" only existed on her phone.

"The album for the first year and a half, well actually, almost to right now, just existed on my phone covered in cat stickers," Taylor Swift told Kimmel.

Despite the intense security the 24-year-old singer made sure to have for "1989," one of the tracks on the '80s-infused pop album, "Blank Space," was reportedly leaked on YouTube on Friday, according to USA Today. Big Machine reportedly yanked in from the video-sharing site within hours.

According to New York magazine, the leaks reportedly may have stemmed from Target because hackers got access to the 19 songs that were specially made for the Target edition. "1989" is set for release on Monday and despite today's leak, the new album is reportedly expected to do very well.

"Taylor Swift's fans are uncommonly loyal. I doubt that anyone who wanted to buy the album would be dissuaded by the leak," stated Anthony DeCurtis, contributing editor at Rolling Stone.

The blonde beauty's new album is already getting glowing reviews from critics of various media outlets.

"Swift breaks with the past, skirting victimhood and takedowns of maddening exes, critics and romantic competitors. Instead, there's a newfound levity. Not only is Swift in on the joke; she also relishes it," wrote Sam Lanksy of TIME magazine, according to The Huffington Post.

Jim Farber of the New York Daily News added to the positive reviews, writing, "A mere seven weeks from her 25th birthday, Swift has put out an album that, in substance, seems more regressive, teenage and girlish than ever. However radio-savvy and hook-obsessed it may be, it's her flightiest and least substantial work to date. Which is saying something."
