Here's What Prince Harry Did When He First Met Shaggy

Shaggy got an unusual greeting from Prince Harry when they first met each other.

The 51-year-old musician opened up to The Guardian about meeting the Duke of Sussex, and remembered that Harry had started singing “It Wasn’t Me” to him.

“When Prince Harry came to Jamaica [in 2012], he came to visit the Bustamante Hospital for Children. My daughter thought he was supposed to be a prince on a horse, like in her storybook,” he recalled about the royal’s appearance.

He continued, “He turned to me and said, ‘Wow, she’s just so not impressed,’ and then he sang, ‘It Wasn’t Me.’ So Prince Harry is a Shaggy fan!”

Shaggy also shared that Harry‘s grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, is also a fan of his music.

“I’d like to think that the Queen is a big Shaggy fan,” he said. “I played at her 92nd birthday party at the Royal Albert Hall. Afterwards I was standing right beside her. It would have been crazy if she was like, ‘Hello, Mr. Boombastic.’”

Just recently, Shaggy admitted that he turned down a collaboration with this major superstar. Find out who here!
