A ROYAL BAFFLED BY POP STAR SPECULATION

by Hannah Southwick

During a recent podcast appearance, a prominent royal figure found himself at a loss when the conversation took an unexpected turn into the world of pop music gossip.

The guest was asked to comment on rumored tensions between two major music artists, a topic that seemed to catch him entirely off guard. Presented with a detailed breakdown of alleged lyrical exchanges between the singers, his response was one of visible confusion and amusement.

“The what? Oh, no,” he replied, before the host elaborated on the supposed diss tracks. The discussion referenced one artist’s song, which some interpreted as a subtle critique, and the other’s recent release, which fans speculate contains pointed lyrics about insecurity and public image.

When pressed on whether the musical back-and-forth was justified, the royal could only manage a bemused “Well…” before laughing. Listeners noted his seemingly genuine lack of awareness about the situation, with many commenting on the surreal nature of the exchange.

The pop star at the center of the rumors has previously downplayed the idea of diss tracks, suggesting the interpretations say more about the pressures female artists face than about personal rivalries. In a recent interview, she sidestepped questions about any feud, instead reflecting on the narratives often forced upon musicians.

The podcast episode also featured a lighter moment, with the royal attempting—with mixed success—to perfect an American accent by repeating a quintessentially casual dining phrase, much to the host’s approval.

The segment highlighted the often stark divide between global celebrity culture and the interests of public figures from other spheres, resulting in a moment of shared, bewildered humor for both the guest and the audience.
