The former country singer now pop superstar, Taylor Swift, confirms vast news. Having that said, the singer yelled out to the public that she is Nils Sjöberg.

Taylor talks about writing Rihanna's This Is What You Came For

The 30-year-old American singer's fans previously made findings that she is the composer behind the hit EDM track of Rihanna and Calvin Harris in 2016 called This Is What You Came For. However, she was credited via a fake name or what the industry refers to as a pseudonym; Nils Sjöberg.

According to Hollywood Life, the cardigan singer opened up about why she hid under a fake name with an interview with The Beatles legend and music icon Paul McCartney. The two singing sensations graced Rolling Stone's feature on Nov. 13, as both of them unveils rarities in front of the eyes of their supporters.

"And that's when it's really fun to create fake names and write under them," the Look What You Made Me Do singer said when talking about the fun side of using a pseudonym. She continued that singers, if not, uses aliases whenever they have immense love for their passion, but at the same time, they don't want to be "overshadowed" by the judgments of people.

Paul then asked if Taylor always uses a fake name, she quickly answered yes. It then paved the way for the singer to explain the story behind her using Nils Sjöberg. She told Paul that the name is Sweden's two most famous male names.

The funny fact is that she wrote the song This Is What You Came For, but ended up in Rihanna's care. But at least, nobody knew the truth for quite some time.

Moreover, Taylor used the fake name to keep her name safe from all the remarks and buzz. The matter considers that she and Calvin dated between 2015 and 2016, and going by the name of Nils Sjöberg is the best move for her.

Paul McCartney in using pseudonyms

Adding his version of using fake names, the 78-year-old Paul shared his bits of stories towards using the wise move in several of his write-ups. NME quoted Paul's words saying he also did the same thing for the band, Peter and Gordon. He revealed that he uses the name Bernard Webb back those days.

The Grammy Award winner also added that he once knew about the late Prince writing Manic Monday, but his identity was latterly revealed.
