Are Lana Del Rey and Quavo dating? They play lovers in new 'Tough' music video

Quavo and Lana Del Rey are releasing their collaboration "Tough" after teasing it last month — and fans are questioning whether they're more than just musical partners.
The duo teamed up with director Wyatt Spain Winfrey for a classic Americana-themed music video, which debuted Wednesday.
In the video, Quavo and Del Rey slow dance and cozy up together as they sing the lyrics to "Tough" with a rural backdrop. There are also scenes with Del Rey seated on Quavo's lap as she plays the guitar outside on a wraparound porch and the rapper teaching her how to shoot beer cans.
The song details a "tough" upbringing that led the leads together.
"Like a .38 made out of brass / Tough like the stuff on your grandpa's glass," they jointly croon in the chorus. "Life's gonna do what it does / Sure as the good Lord up above / I'm cut like a diamond shinin' in the rough."

Quavo pays tribute to his late Migos bandmember and nephew Takeoff, who was fatally shot in 2022 at age 28, in the music video. He crossed his arms to form a "T" as he raps the lyrics: "Still shinin', and it's hard / If you ever lost someonе that you love."
Lana Del ReyFenway Park concert delayed 2 hours, fans evacuated
Del Rey and Quavo first performed "Tough" during the melancholic pop star's headlining performance at Boston’s Fenway Park on June 21.
The singer's sold-out concert was delayed by two hours due to severe thunderstorms and fans were evacuated from the field, Live Nation confirmed to USA TODAY on June 22.
It was well worth the fan's wait as Del Rey eventually brought out guests including Mason Ramsey, Stephen Sanchez and Quavo, the latter with whom she performed "Tough."
"Tough" is presumably a single on her upcoming country album, "Lasso," which is due out in September.
