Post Malone is taking over the Louvre in a "Fortnight."
The "Sunflower" crooner will be taking the stage in the Cour Carrée of the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. Intended as an event leading up to the Olympics taking over the city this summer, his May 28 concert will also be streamed on Roblox.
The performance is part of the Visa Live au Louvre, which involves a partnership between the historic french museum and Visa. It is slated to be Post Malone's first concert in Paris since 2019, making it the first time he can perform songs from recent albums Twelve Carat Toothache and Austin.
The Grammy-nominee will be closely following his recent collaborator, Taylor Swift, who just performed four shows in Paris as she re-launched her Eras Tour. The updated setlist also included a performance of their duet, "Fortnight," which recently spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Their collaboration was released after Malone's song with Beyoncé, "Levii's Jeans," which was part of her acclaimed Cowboy Carter album.

The "Rockstar" singer's show will be kicking off a new lineup of concerts at the venue, with more artists to be announced. Continuing the Visa partnership, all future concerts will seemingly be live streamed through Roblox.
While audiences wait to find out who else will be taking part, take a look back at other artists who have used the Louvre as their own muse in the past.
Beyoncé and Jay-Z's Music Video
While they did not perform a concert, Beyoncé and Jay-Z took over the Louvre for the "Apesh-" music video. Released as part of their collaborative Everything Is Love EP in 2018, they paid around $20,000 to rent out the location for a music video, Racked reports. The music video features the couple posing in front of several pieces of artwork, including the Mona Lisa, as well as partying with several dancers throughout the museum.
Lady Gaga Portraits
In 2013, portraits of Lady Gaga were hung in the Louvre as part of Robert Wilson's Living Rooms exhibition. Created as part of her Artpop era, the series of paintings feature recreations of Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres's painting of Mademoiselle Caroline Rivière (1806), Jacques-Louis David's legendary portrait The Death of Marat (1806), and Andrea Solari's The Head of Saint John the Baptist (1507).
After extensive conversations with the artist about "beauty, torture, sainthood, and perception," Gaga underwent an hours-long Shibari performance for the final painting. She was reportedly hung upside down and naked while she posed.
Lorde's 'Melodrama' Song
Lorde recorded a song titled "The Louvre" for her 2017 album, Melodrama. The song follows her feelings around a newfound romance, comparing her infatuation to a painting hung in the museum.
"Blow all my friendships / To sit in hell with you / But we're the greatest / They'll hang us in the Louvre / Down the back, but who cares-still the Louvre."
