Swift has been ruling the charts for more than ten years now with her storytelling approach, and Malone has made his mark in the music scene with his blend of hip-hop, pop, and rock. Fortnight combined the best of both of them as artists, as well as their compatibility as a creative pair.

Since the release of the behind-the-scenes video of the Fortnight music video, the fun chemistry between Taylor Swift and Post Malone during the shoot has gone viral. Apart from the usual shoot footage, the unscripted moments between the two have been noticed by the viewers more.

However, among all the moments, one particular scene has captured the hearts of Swifties. Being the director of the music video, Swift is seen instructing Malone about a particular scene where he is typing something on a typewriter, and fans observed how Malone listened to Swift’s direction politely, saying “Yes ma’am” repeatedly.

Netizens commented on the sweet gesture by Malone, saying,

His “yes ma’am” is literally the sweetest sounding thing ever.

I CANNOT HANDLE POSTY SAYING YES MAAM. He totally understands.

“Yes ma’am” OMG! Now he’s a tattooed golden retriever. And Taylor is simply amazing

His yes ma’am so polite little country boy.

Obsessed with Posty and his southern manners.

Swift was also very satisfied with the take given by Malone and appreciated him by saying, “That was stunning.” Besides that, Malone’s goofy, childlike enthusiasm regarding a typewriter on set was followed by Swift’s remark that “Millennials don’t see that sh*t” in the background. This is also where Swift’s perfectionism can be observed, such as how she loves to shoot last-minute ideas into the script, such as her Easter eggs for fans who are keen-eyed enough to spot them.

The music video itself is a stunning piece of art, featuring dream-like sequences between both artists. Fortnight also broke the record for the highest number of streams, hitting 300 million streams in a single day on Spotify. However, Malone recently broke one of the records of his fellow artist.

Although Fortnight became another chart-buster record for Taylor Swift and Post Malone, the latter has left behind the former in his latest single. Malone’s new single, Pour Me a Drink, in collaboration with country artist Blake Shelton, is from his upcoming album F-1 Trillion, and it created new records.

According to Forbes, Pour Me a Drink entered Spotify’s U.S. streaming chart at No. 9 and got 1.561 million streams on its first day. This accomplishment was even more impressive because it debuted higher than albums from other new releases by big names, including Taylor Swift.

Swift recently teamed up with Gracie Abrams on her new album The Secret of Us for her single Us, which debuted at number 12 on Spotify’s U.S. streaming chart.

The success of Pour Me a Drink proves Malone’s ability to do different types of music. From R&B/hip-hop and pop to now country music, it shows how he can move across different music styles and engage fans. This latest hit came after another country-inspired song, I Had Some Help with Morgan Wallen, which dominated the Billboard Hot 100 for five weeks.

As far as the BTS video of Fortnight is concerned, it is safe to say that, apart from talent and charm, Malone has expanded his fanbase among Swifties as well with his humble nature, despite being one of the biggest artists of the current generation.
