Taylor Swift drops ‘Fortnight’ music video with Post Malone — featuring ‘Dead Poets Society’ stars Ethan Hawke and Josh Charles

Taylor Swift has officially dropped her first music video off of her 11th studio album, “The Tortured Poets Department.”The 34-year-old musician released her new music overnight Friday, with a second batch of songs at 2 a.m., making it a surprise double album.The track features Post Malone and is rumored to be about Matty Healy, as “Fortnight” means a two-week span. She briefly dated the 1975 frontman following her split from Joe Alwyn after six years.“I was supposed to be sent away but they forgot to come and get me/I was a functioning alcoholic ‘til nobody noticed my new aesthetic,” she sings.“All of this to say I hope you’re OK, but you’re the reason/And no one here’s to blame but what about your quiet treason,” she goes on.

He’s bringing sensitive back: Justin Timberlake makes a smooth comeback with new single ‘Selfish’
“Selfish” — which dropped Thursday morning — finds the pop superstar getting in his falsetto feels over a smooth midtempo groove.“So if I get jealous, I can’t help it/I want every bit of you, I guess I’m selfish,” he sweetly croons in the chorus that proves that, even at 42, he still possesses some of that same boy-band charm that made us fall in love with him when he was a curly-haired teen heartthrob.Indeed, after Timberlake reunited with ’N Sync last fall for the “Trolls Band Together” bop “Better Place,” “Selfish” takes him back to the swoon-worthy sincerity of his boy-band days — long before he fell victim to cancel culture for his purported misdeeds with Janet Jackson (after their 2004 Super Bowl halftime performance) and ex Britney Spears.But while the song recaptures a kind of lost innocence, it also has some muted, moody beats — think Drake — and a hint of melancholy from an older soul.“Selfish” — which reteams Timberlake with longtime producer Timbaland, while bringing in new collaborators Louis Bell (Taylor Swift, Post Malone) and Cirkut (Maroon 5, The Weeknd) — is the first single from the singer’s upcoming sixth studio album, “Everything I Thought It Was,” due March 15.Timberlake also dropped the “Selfish” video, and like the song, it’s a more subtle, subdued affair than, say, “Filthy,” from his last LP, 2018’s “Man of the Woods.”It’s just Justin singing and vibing behind the scenes, proudly rocking the grays in his beard now.The clip — directed by Bradley J.

Oh baby, what? The surprising secrets behind Britney Spears’ ‘…Baby One More Time’ video
Britney Spears’ debut single, “…Baby One More Time.”Indeed, the same California high school where John Travolta’s Danny and Olivia Newton-John’s Sandy were “Born to Hand Jive” in the 1978 movie classic set the scene for Spears’ graduation to the top of the pop world.“It was filmed at Venice Beach High School — the same place they filmed ‘Grease,’” Felicia Culotta — who was the then 16-year-old Spears’ assistant/chaperone — told The Post. “And we were just like, ‘Oh my gosh — nothing’s gonna get any better than this!’”The classic clip that premiered on MTV in November 1998 — two months after the single’s release — was the brainchild of the teenager herself.“The video was 100 percent her idea,” said Barry Weiss, who was then president of Spears’ label, Jive Records.“That was a huge, huge vehicle that broke her on a global basis.”Indeed, the timing couldn’t have been better: MTV’s “TRL” premiered just two months before Spears would deliver the video for her army of new fans.“The time that it was on during the day meant that kids would rush home from school and vote for their favorite video,” said Lori Majewski, host of SiriusXM’s “Fierce: Women in Music,” who was Entertainment Editor at Teen People magazine when Spears launched her recording career.And those young fans would become instantly acquainted with Culotta, who made a last-minute appearance in the schoolroom scenes at Spears’ request.“They said, ‘Oh, we don’t have a teacher,’” said Culotta.
