Post Malone Covers Up All His Tattoos for Intimate Scene with Taylor Swift in ‘Fortnight’ Music Video
Swift previously gushed about being “a huge fan of Post because of the writer he is” and “his musical experimentation”
Post Malone is rocking a new aesthetic, but just for a fortnight.
The rapper, 28, covered all his tattoos to play Taylor Swift’s star-crossed lover in the new music video for their “Fortnight” collaboration. The track is the lead single for Swift’s album The Tortured Poets Department, released on Friday, April 19.
Before its release, Swift, 34, said in an Instagram post that she was excited for fans to listen to it as she is “a huge fan of Post because of the writer he is, his musical experimentation and those melodies he creates that just stick in your head forever.”

Swift also shows a different side of herself in one of the video’s opening scenes. Replicas of Malone’s facial tattoos appear on her face as she sings, “And for a fortnight there, we were forever / Run into you sometimes, ask about the weather / Now you’re in my backyard, turned into good neighbors /Your wife waters flowers, I wanna kill her.”
While the tattoos on her face disappear when she steps into another room to work on a typewriter, fans finally get a glimpse of Malone working on his own typewriter while sitting across from her.

A Guide to Post Malone’s Tattoos and What They Mean
After streams of pink and blue begin coming out of each of their typewriters, they form a bright spark. Following its disappearance, Swift is seen reading to Malone, with his tattoos no longer on his face, as they lie in the middle of an empty road.
As the camera zooms out, Swift is seen running into Malone’s arms and the two share a long embrace.
Malone gently grabs onto Swift’s face causing her to let out a smile. As papers begin to fly all around them, the two look into each other’s eyes and grab each other’s hands.

The intimate scene is followed by a look at Malone, now with his normal facial art, standing by men in lab coats as Swift receives shock therapy.
Back in February, Malone shared during an interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe that working with Swift was “amazing.”
