Taylor Swift’s new music video includes a gay porn star.
Kevin Falk, who has featured in numerous videos on hardcore gay porn site Randy Blue, plays a no-nonsense bodyguard in Delicate.
The 37-year-old adult films actor escorts the global megastar to her hotel room, before remaining stone-faced as a newly invisible Swift tries to attract his attention.

So far, around 15 million people have watched Falk’s performance in the space of two days.
The 28-year-old Shake It Off star has featured a gay porn star in one of her videos already, with men.com’s Mike de Marko showing up in the celebratory We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.
During the video, de Marko dances with Swift’s friends and gets showered in glitter, which looks about as much fun as it sounds.

Swift, whose new album Reputation was the best-selling US album of 2017, also used gay anthem I’m Too Sexy in her song Look What You Made Me Do.
As the singer-songwriter uses the chorus to menacingly croon the song’s title, everything but the words is 100 percent based off of Right Said Fred’s club banger.
The main hook relies heavily on the hit 90s song.

The three members of the band – Fred Fairbrass, Richard Fairbrass and Rob Manzoli – all had writing credits on the song.
The official credits stated that the track had “an interpolation of a melody” from I’m Too Sexy.
And on Twitter, the band expressed its delight with the final version of the song, writing: “Thank you @taylorswift13 ❤️ what a marvellous reinvention!”

The video for the song – which was Swift’s first single from the album – included singer, dancer and RuPaul’s Drag Race judge Todrick Hall, sparking controversy because of Taylor’s alleged support for Donald Trump.
But Hall slammed critics of his appearance, saying: “They’re making this huge assumption when Taylor has never to my knowledge come out and said anything about her being pro-Trump.
“That was one of the major things that was tweeted at me, and I’m like, ’So you are mad that you think she might support Donald Trump?

“‘But you’re not mad that Kanye has been very openly pro-Trump?’ I don’t understand that.”
In May, Swift was one of many celebrities and world leaders to pay tribute to the victims of the Manchester terror attack at an Ariana Grande concert.
