Taylor Swift and Post Malone have a furry fan!
On Saturday, April 20, a Swift fan Instagram account featuring a dog named Lucas posted a recreation of some scenes of Swift and Malone’s music video for “Fortnight,” which was released on Friday, April 19.
The Instagram reel featured Lucas’ version of “Fortnight” on the top half of the screen, split with the actual video on the bottom.
The canine Swiftie mimicked some scenes from the video in which the “Down Bad” singer, 34, and Malone, 28, sat in front of typewriters typing out lyrics to the song. Lucas even dressed as both Swift and the “Take What You Want” singer.
He wore a blonde wig while portraying Swift, along with a black dress that had the same Victorian vibes as hers did in the video. Close-ups of the dog’s paws when he was mimicking the Grammy winner’s fingers typing revealed that he even wore black lace gloves like Swift did in the original music video.
When playing Malone, Lucas wore a garment reminiscent of a black suit jacket like the rapper’s. A bandana around the dog’s neck was meant to represent the collared shirt Malone wore underneath his suit.
“I look like @taylorswift in this light, i’m lovin’ it,” the video reel was captioned, in a nod to “Clara Bow,” the song that ends the first half of The Tortured Poets Department double album.
“You look like Taylor Swift / In this light, we’re lovin’ it / You’ve got edge, she never did / The future’s bright, dazzling,” Swift croons in the outro of the song.
“Fortnight” is the lead single off of The Tortured Poets Department and the first of two collaborations on the album.
“When I was writing the Fortnight music video, I wanted to show you the worlds I saw in my head that served as the backdrop for making this music,” Swift wrote in a post on Instagram after the video’s premiere.

“Pretty much everything in it is a metaphor or a reference to one corner of the album or another,” she continued. “For me, this video turned out to be the perfect visual representation of this record and the stories I tell in it.”
Swift’s version of the video also featured Ethan Hawke and Josh Charles.
