According to the Wall Street Journal, Taylor Swift has reportedly turned down an invitation to appear on Meghan Markle’s podcast, “Archetypes.” The podcast aimed to explore the challenges and stereotypes faced by women, a topic that Swift has previously spoken about. Despite featuring notable guests such as Serena Williams, Mariah Carey, and Paris Hilton, Markle’s podcast failed to captivate the interest of Swift, the reigning queen of entertainment.

Prince Harry also had ambitious aspirations for his podcast endeavors on Spotify, including attempts to persuade figures like Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin to discuss their childhood traumas. However, these plans were evidently unattainable. It is not hard to imagine the unlikely scenario of Putin revealing personal vulnerabilities such as the influence of his father on his path to becoming a ruthless dictator.

Several media outlets reported over a week ago that Spotify terminated its $20 million deal with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, leading Bill Simmons, the company’s podcast king, to denounce the couple as “grifters.” These developments highlight the challenges faced by the couple in their podcast ventures and their inability to secure high-profile guests like Taylor Swift.
