Following the Sussex couple’s open letter to Spotify addressing the misinformation spread on their platform through Joe Rogan’s famous podcast, it’s been revealed that just a few months back, the podcaster took a swipe at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.
Joe Rogan Calls Meghan Markle an “American Hussy”
At the height of the Megxit drama in January 2020, Rogan called Meghan a “little American hussy”, who will likely turn Prince Harry’s life into a Kardashian-like existence.
Mimicking the Queen, Joe said to former CIA agent Mike Baker who he had on the podcast with him: “It’s that little American hussy he’s hooked up with. She’s going to turn him into a Kardashian. That little American hussy has ruined my prince.”
He later also added: “They’re already so popular all they need to do is start endorsing f****** makeup lines and sneakers and watches and s***.”
Joe Rogan recently came under fire for promoting COVID-19 misinformation through his popular podcast. The episode that got public figures disgruntled with him, and with Spotify for giving him the platform, happens to be the one where he interviewed Dr. Robert Malone, who claimed on the show that Americans were “hypnotised” into wearing masks and getting vaccines and boosters.
The pair’s speaking out came as royal commentators advised them to drop their multi-million dollar deal with Spotify
Following the airing of the controversial episode, musician Neil Young pulled his music from the platform in protest. He demanded that Spotify control the misinformation spread through their platform to “24 year olds”.
Following Neil Young’s public statement, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex followed suit. The couple released their statement through their Archewell website, asking Spotify to stop the “harmful lies” spread through their platform.
The pair’s speaking out came as royal commentators advised them to drop their multi-million dollar deal with Spotify, especially as they have been known to encourage vaccine access and equity. However, the pair confirmed in their statement that they’re looking forward to continuing their work with Spotify.
