While on tour, Post Malone was denied entry at the QT Hotel because of his tattoos.

While touring with the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Post Malone found himself down under. The "Rockstar" singer was just trying to enjoy some drinks at the QT Hotel's rooftop bar in Perth, Western Australia when he was turned away, despite his fame and success. The reason? Posty's face tattoos. As it turns out, it doesn't matter if you are an A-Lister with multiple award wins under your name. The QT Hotel adheres to strict dress codes that are against "face, neck, and offensive tattoos," even if you are a top-charting artist. Posty noted that this is the first time he has been denied entry for being tatted, according to Consequence.net

With a growing list of over 75 tattoos, Post's grungy meets eccentric style continues to stand out. On his face alone, he rocks barbed wire alongside the phrases "Stay Away" and "Always Tired." The New York native is recognized internationally for his tattoos and continues to add to his one-of-a-kind ink collection. Lucky for Post, he was easily able to recuperate the energy of the night. Alongside his entourage, the group switched gears by kicking back with local fans at 18 Knots, another nearby bar.

Post Malone Explains What His Tats Mean

The QT Hotel eventually did issue an apology, telling the DailyMail “at QT, we aim to welcome everyone and celebrate the uniqueness of each individual." Furthermore, they state, "our third-party security did not exercise the appropriate discretion, and we take full responsibility for this. We sincerely apologize to the individuals affected.” While the half-hearted apology hints at admiring individuality, it's unclear as to why the organization maintains such rigid rules.

Last summer, Post released his latest album Twelve Carat Toothache, which earned him number two on the US Billboard's 200. Prior to his Australia shows, he toured the album with Roddy Rich as the opening act. It's unlikely that such an incident will discourage this rockstar, who already has exciting plans coming up in the next few months. As his stadium run with the Red Hot Chili Peppers ended this week, he's headed back to the states to perform at BottleRock 2023 in Napa Valley.
