Taylor Swift & Post Malone Make Each Other Blush While Accepting Best Collab for ‘Fortnight’ at 2024 VMAs

Post Malone and Taylor Swift accept the Best Collaboration award for "Fortnight" on stage during the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards at UBS Arena on Sept. 11, 2024 in Elmont, New York.

Taylor Swift and Post Malone are having a pretty good fortnight. The pair was the first to win a Moon Person during the televised broadcast of the MTV Video Music Awards Wednesday night (Sept. 11), taking home best collaboration for the music video to their Billboard Hot 100-topping duet “Fortnight.”

The prize was presented by the self-proclaimed King Swiftie himself, Flavor Flav, and 2024 Team USA gymnast Jordan Chiles. “Swifties in the building!” the Public Enemy rapper shouted into the microphone, holding up a hand-heart that made the pop superstar giggle as she took the stage alongside the “Psycho” musician.

Swift began the pair’s joint acceptance speech by addressing the anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States over two decades prior on the same day as the ceremony. “Waking up this morning in New York on Sept. 11, I’ve just been thinking about what happened 23 years ago,” she said. “That is the most important thing about today, and everything that happens tonight falls behind that.”
