Taylor Swift's New Song Title 'Polaroid?,' Yahoo! Live Stream Announced

The singer's trio of clues included an Instagram video of her pushing "18" on an elevator, a screenshot of her smart phone wallpaper that read "5:00," and a computer screen shot of a Yahoo! search page.

Put them together, and one might be under the impression that on Aug. 18 at 5:00 p.m., Swift will be either (1) Dishing significant information on the new album, (2) Dropping a new single or (3) both.

On Monday, Swift (@taylorswift13) posted this tweet:

This information is pretty basic, and we still don't have any idea what the album will look like, sound like, etc. But one investigative Buzzfeed staffer decided to look a little deeper. Kelley Locke noticed one clue in particular that stood out: the second one, in which a Polaroid camera sits on Swift's shelf:

She also noted Swift's well-known affinity for Polaroid pictures; the singer has posted several of them on Instagram over the past year. Most notably, Swift allegedly invited a caravan of media over to her apartment last week and had them all post Polaroid snapshots of the experience on social media.

Locke's hypothesis: The new Swift single will be called "Polaroid," and it will be released on Aug. 18.

It's not bad detective work, but we'll likely need to wait a full week until we find out what the real story is. Until then, you can check out a clip from Swift's new movie, The Giver, which is due in theaters on Friday.

UPDATE: Looks like Swift has given us the answer on Twitter. On Monday, August 18, Yahoo! will host an exclusive worldwide live stream event from New York City . Tune in on Yahoo! Screen or Good Morning America at 5 p.m. EST/2 p.m. PST.
